Pete, if you had the opportunity to put a magic show together and you could choose from magicians no longer with us to present day, what would the line up be? Also you can have one variety/novelty act as well.

Thanks Pete! I really miss Mike Caldwell..he was the perfect emcee as was Bob Lewis. If I could add to the line up, I would add Blackstone Sr., Kirk Kirkham, Skipper Frank Herman...this is going to be a long show.

I was trying to keep it down. Kirkham was a genius, he fried me with his light tube suspension. I booked him to do that on a TV Special I did in Japan. I still remember seeing Blackstone Sr., 12 times in a row when he came to Oakland at the Orpheum Theater. I ran onstage every show for the committee. I would just slip him my watch to save him picking it off me.
