Travelling Magician


How good is to travel? How good is to travel for work?? I love it.

Love the hotel life! Isn't it GREAT? You arrive and everything's clean and they take care of you and the big shower head! :)

I had to travel about 500 km to the country to work at a party. This man met me at the casino (last summer) and wanted me for his daughter's sweet sixteen party. The hotel was not a 5 star but staying in a hotel for work excites me.

The gig was good. I had to stroll the reception. I did mostly card magic.

I don't know exactly why but i dropped the deck like 4 times! Duh!!! What an idiot!
The last 3 times it fell i made it part of the trick. Like i was 'eliminating' cards. I took advantage of the messy situation to generate a 'randomness' feel to the trick.
It worked out pretty well in the end.

Lots of classic forcing too. Whenever i had a card selected, i'd classic force it. At one moment i was in a classic force high and i was hitting them all. It was beautiful.

Card under the seat too. Spectator takes a card, Magician buries it in the pack, the card ends up beneath Magician's arse. Very cool trick.

Lots of improvisation too. Sometimes i'd classic force the wrong card or forget it in the process and my 'guessings' would go wrong. At that very moment i'd search rapidly for the one i had mentioned and while misdirecting the bunch, i would perform a top change. You know, nothing new...but it would work so good!

Improv rocks.
