Roland is an excellent magician and performer. Thanks, Lint, for tracking down the clip. I thought that the table added character to the routine.

Mike

Glad you all enjoyed. I got quite a few ideas from people demonstrating their c&b routines on that site. -lint

The guy is really good but the shaky table sometimes made me watch the table a bit more than the magician.

Flawless routine however.

I too enjoyed the performance. For a formal setting the table might not be the best choice but for his venue...I think it works. Just my opinion.

If you can't find an old Walsh table, there are some Indian tables that are fairly decent copies. I don't usually recommend copies of this nature, but these actually do work. You will probably need to replace the elastic with something a bit stronger, though.

Payne: I may have a Walsh table that needs some TLC... you want it? Just the postage will get it for you. PM me. Also, I can tell you where the best places to eat and enjoy Venice are... Man I wish I could go again soon, but can't afford it right now. But next year!

BTW... why 2 cups? A really good chop cup or bowl routine can't be all bad. You could use those great little MASKS they sell there for finals.

Pete, Don't give Payne the table! He always gets all the good stuff.

Payne, Don't you dare accept. You always get all the good stuff

Self, Don't be so envious.

Dial Self... you survive the rains? Arghhhhh....

Thanks for the offer Pete but I've already ordered a cheapy Indian made model. I'm trying to take stuff that if someone pitches it into a canal I won't get upset, besides I don't want to have to put up with Jeff pouting everytime he'd see me with a actual Walsh table.
Wish I could take my standard setup though, busker table, Bosco cups and all my unique loads as I'm going to be in my Eighteenth century togs (it's Carnivale after all) and it'd be great to get some pictures of me working the streets of Venice in period costume with the proper rig.

Well... you could borrow the hotel suitcase holder (like busker table stand) and put your suitcase on it at St. Marco's Square and get pix performing for the 4,354,992 pidgeons.

OK, it is the Rialto Bridge. Off the North end, walk around the canal to the right and you pass thru the vegetable and flower market and to the great FISH MARKET... morning scene there is awesome.

Now, the other way, after you walk off the Rialto bridge, go left (there are food joints along the water... stay away from those... tourist traps... but a block or two is Madonna st. or lane... turn right and up a block or two on left is Madonna restaurant. GREAT FOOD... locals there.

Across alley from Harry's bar on the East side the hotel dining room there is to die for... not cheap, but awesome service. If you can get in. We made reservations a couple of months in advance via internet. If you want details, email me.
