We've Just Booked Juan Tamariz for the Genii Convention!

Postby Richard Kaufman » March 13th, 2012, 3:43 pm

I'm so damn excited that I couldn't wait to share the news: just moments ago Juan Tamariz sent me an email agreeing to perform at Genii's 75th Anniversary Birthday Bash.

Juan will work on Friday evening, performing a one-hour close-up show followed by a 90-minute lecture.

Richard... thank you for getting Juan to participate. He is a magical treasure and if I wasn't already a part of the convention, I would have crossed the country just to see him.

Richard,

This is fantastic news!!

I hope he holds a late night "learning session"--that's when he does some "impossible" magic!

Looking forward to all the fun.

Juan likes to do those extra sessions, so I'll investigate that.

Peter was over in Dublin last year for our gig. He is worth his weight in gold to any convention. And a gentleman too.

I'm getting very tempted.

Ohhhhh Richard you are tempting me very much. My idea is to attend in July to SAM convention in my first USA trip .... but the Genii Bash lineup is simply irressitible. very very tempting.
Pendragon says he would've cross the country to see Tamariz .... maybe I HAVE to cross the Gulf to see all this marvelous magicians.
(Sigh) I have to check my finance ....
you're getting me in a dilemma :P jeje

Considering the stress of putting on a convention, I can't see myself doing this often, if ever again. That's not to say I won't change my mind in five years, but at the moment we're pouring everything we can into this one Genii convention in terms of who we're hiring and all the stuff we're giving away.

Take a look at our line-up of performers and lecturers--it's one of the best I've ever seen at a convention. You know those filler acts you often see booked? We don't have any of those.

And with the $200 worth of magic you'll get, plus the $10,000 giveaway of magic, well you just can't repeat those kinds of things easily in the future. When you come, we're not just giving you a padfolio, a pen, and a program!

So I hope you will succumb to temptation and join us. :)
