Don’t you hate it when you can almost remember something but try as hard as you can but it doesn’t come to you?
I can remember seeing somewhere on here a short video of an older magician doing magic with a vent, (the dummy
wasn’t really dead) but he never spoke a word. It was a very funny non talking ventriloquism bit.

Any idea?

Somebody had posted a link to the youtube video in this section and
I can't find it anywhere.

Thanks

One of the most brilliant routines is Bill DeMars routine with his frog Feldon. Watch it. Either way you won’t be sorry.

I agree, absolutely, Jack! We've toured on the same circuit, but,Bill and I have never met.

Feldon the Frog is, I think, Bill's best bit. The only puppeteer that, I think, is in the same "league" is Jim Jayes, with Hokey, Jim's little clown. Both Bill and Jim, can kill a senior high school group with their presentation!!!

YES, That is it, the Frog routine where the frog didn’t talk.

Thanks I really appreciate that.

I could remember Jim Jayes, and yes he is very good too.

Just couldn't recall Bill DeMars routine.

Thanks,

Tom

Just a correction, Jim Jayes puppet pal is Pokey.

Bob Jepsen used to a great routine with a hand puppet and a disecto using his own hand. He also did a great recreation of the Edgar Bergan routine of sawing Charlie in half.

I understand how it feels, Tom. I forget things too.
