Too many card tricks....

This past weekend was fun. I met up with local magic nerds at a party. It was nice being social and we eventually had a mini "show" for party guests. Six of us performed for around 30 laypeople. The show was for an hour and everyone did some tricks. Everyone was great! Even FISM champ Arthur Trace performed. He's flawless.

On the way home my girlfriend innocently mentioned that there were too many card tricks in the performance. She was right! Around 90 percent of the tricks shown were with a deck of cards. She then said," why do most magicians do card tricks?" She likes magic and card tricks, but several card tricks in a row are painful.

I agree. Yes, I did a card trick, but I also did coin tricks and a cool beer bottle production. Some of the material I performed was from our INSTANT MIRACLES DVD. They got great reactions. For a DVD under $20, this DVD is worth every penny.

The release is only a year old. We're attempting to add "fresher" DVD's to our line. This is a prime example. Plenty of modern impromptu miracles with cell phones, Compact discs, calculators ( worth the price of the DVD), dice, and money. Danny Orleans is the host and he does a great job!

Later in the year we're releasing another impromptu tricks series. This one deals with magic at the dinner table. We'll do very well with this item. The tricks are top shelf.

See you next week!
