Re: Criss Angel – Quarter Through Soda Can available for rental!!!!
This is really sad to see that some video clubs or on line services such as zip.ca can offer "specialized" DVDs.
Is there something we can do?
Can we actually write to Criss Angel and/or zip.ca and ask them to remove it from the list of DVDs ?

Re: This is what I have done so far for my new show.
I agree with you if it would be in those conditions. But I have been a stage performer for over 25 years. I have done hundreds of shows in all kind of conditions. Some TV, theater and even was an extra in a movie. I always have been strong on stage and feel very confident in doing justice to mentali...

This is what I have done so far for my new show.
I have been into Magic since the beginning of the 80's, yes I am that old ... I did all kinds of bars, clubs and restaurant plus some stuff on TV. I did a Play, in 89, where of course I was playing a Magician. But I recently got the bug to put up a complete Mentalism show. I am renting a show room i...

Re: Anyone bought this PK Spoon from Werry?
Thanks for your honest opinion. It's well appreciated.
I will go with metal bending instead. The latest Osterlind DVDs have a section on "great" spoon and fork bending ...
I will get 5, 6 and 7 for about $100.

Re: New Film: The Illusionist
Ed Norton and Paul Giamatti are 2 actors that I love. They both are very good at their art. I found Norton amazing in Fight Club where not to many actors could have pulled that "stunt". Giamatti will always be Pig Vomit for me. When I first viewed the Howard Stern movie I said that Giamatt...

Re: Anyone bought this PK Spoon from Werry?
Must I understand by this that it is not that "great" ?
I was looking for some "review" ...
What is lacking from it ...?
Thanks

Anyone bought this PK Spoon from Werry?
I have seen this on the Net, it's called PK Spoon and is done with an ordinary plastic spoon. We have seen many metal spoon, and silverware in general, bending out of shapes but I had never seen a plastic version. This is from the description "Bend A Spoon While In Full View of the Audience!&qu...

What is your opinion about background music
I am working on a new show. A complete Mentalism act. I was wondering if I would need some background music, classical maybe, or it is usually done without any background noise. I did see a few in the past but I might want to put some just very faint. What do you think and what would it be, Debussy,...

Re: Need suggestions for a new Mentalism show
Ok, since I posted this email I did buy a few things. Like Sam Kesler suggested I did get the DVD he has mentioned. It does contain a "simplified" version of the mockingbird. A great Max Maven effect but the fact that the trick is a bit on the complicated side scares some mentalist away fr...

Re: Preview Video Clips of New Coin Sleights
Pretty good moves.
Interesting videos.
I thought I had some good moves but these are a very different approach.
Good luck.

Need suggestions for a new Mentalism show
Hi all, I have been in Magic for over 20 years and did earn a living for a few of those years doing shows. I recently, after a friends demand, did a mentalism show. I do have many resources, Max Maven tapes and lecture notes, the desert brainstorm tapes and some other notes from Lee Earl. I did a bo...

Re: The Evasons in New York City
It must be real nice to see them in a show.
Too bad there is much stuff on their homepage ...
I wish they had a little video file or something.
