Overall I enjoyed the show. The acts were great - a more consistent high quality than last year's which had some ridiculous escapes. The camera work was also better this time around. However, the editing during the first half hour was really annoying - cuts constantly to the audience at the wrong ti...

Here is a bio that appeared in the 2006 Annual Salute to Magic program that honored Sam: A Salute to Sam The magic bug bit Sam Schwartz late and it bit hard. He was a corporate lawyer and 41 years old when he decided to sign up for an introductory magic class in an adult education program. For most,...

Foa all those who are able to attend, the funeral will be held on Tuesday Nov. 17 at 12:30pm at: Ballard-Durand Funeral Home 2 Maple A...

In my opinion, the current organization of and politics in FISM have blotted the reputation of the entire conference and competition. I have been to 4 FISMS - two in the Netherlands, and one each in Portugal and Sweden. So, I can only comment based on those experiences. The last night of the last FI...

Everybody has secrets. Would it not be interesting if private personal secrets of the producers and stars of these type of magic exposure shows were sought and discovered by professional investigators and then revealed? Obviously these producers and stars do not mind revealing secrets that can hurt ...

Last year's seminar was fantastic!!!

Try to attend if you can!!!

I only met Geoff a few times - each time many years apart. He said that he always remembered me,and he always answered any questions I had about his effects and techniques. He was passionate about his magic and a true gentlemen. However, the last time I saw him, his biggest smile came about when we ...

Kenardo

Great report. Thanks.

Kenardo

Craig,

Thanks again for your detailed reports and personal insights.

Have a safe trip home.

Kenardo

Thanks, Craig. Great job!

Kenardo

...In summary - its clearly apparent that this has been a watered down 6 day event. What should have taken no more than 3 or 4 days has been stretched to fill 6 days - and it shows unfortunately. By all means have a six day FISM style spectacular - but then lets have all the FISM bells & whistle...

Kenardo

Thanks, Donal. Very interesting. I would have like to have seen it.

Thanks, Craig, for the review of tonight's show. I agree with you regarding James Brandon; I saw him perform several months ago and also found his act very disappointing.

Kenardo

I have worked with Mike before. He is the best!

Kenardo

Did you get a chance to see the David Ben & Jon Racherbaumer lecture on Vernon & Marlo. If so, how was it? What were their major points?

You are doing a great job! Thanks.

Kenardo

I finally got to listen to Jamy's interview,and Dodd was right. Jamy's comments were very interesting. I was in Stockholm and saw the performance in question. It actually was a very sad situation because that performer was way out of his league, and based on his article (although I know him to be a ...

The Harper's Magazine July 2008 Issue has an article on the Magic Olympics (FISM 2006 Stockholm). You might want to check it out in your local public library. I do not believe it can be accessed at the Harper's website.

Lou was a regular at the Saturday cafeteria get-togethers in Manhattan. He was very generous with sharing his wisdom and experience to all who asked. He also participated in SAM and IBM club shows. When videos were relatively new, he shot a home tape featuring many techniques and effects which was r...

I just got some unfortunate news.

Eric broke his leg last Friday and has had to cancel his lecture tour. Therefore, the 2/28 lecture in New York City is also cancelled.

I hope to rebook Eric sometime in the future.

Let's hope he has a speedy recovery.

I think that a magician's take on the show will be completely different than the layman's. I think that Mike and Angela were probably the most likeable to the American public, and likeablity is really important; however Angela's performances seemed to weaken as Mike's maintained a steady pace. Perso...

Happy Birthday, Howie!

OOPS!
I made a mistake. At the breakout session Michael Rubinstein taught a three coin production and vanish sequence.

Having been to many magic conventions over the years, it is always a thrill to experience a new type of magical happening, and last weekend I had the good fortune to do so by attending the New York Coin Magic Seminar #5 at Marc DeSouza's house outside of Philadelphia. It was like a Coin College wher...
