Hello to everyone here,
My name's Mark, I'm from England and work as a Firefighter. I've been coming to the Café for a few years now, mainly looking at the Reviews section before I decide to buy anything or not. I've been into magic for about six years, only really in the last two years being able to temper my enthusiasm for buying absolutely anything and everything that gets put out. That means four years of drawers full of 'stuff' that very rarely gets an airing! Up to now I've had just a handful of bookings; kid's parties and weddings, they went well and I'd really like to get more. If I think I can offer anything objective I will, if I don't then I won't be writing Best wishes to all, Mark |

Hi Mark
Welcome. I suggest, since I also have drawers, closets and a garage, full of "stuff", to purchase the book "Maximum Entertainment" by Weber. No tricks, just excellent information about being entertaining. You won't be sorry. Best
Nothing is truer than the incomprehensible, because the sum total of our knowledge consists of the fact that we know nothing. Our reality is an illusion. Thus illusion is reality-Punx

Hi Mark, I'm a professional firefighter near Washington D.C. here in the States. I use any down-time at the firehouse to read magic books and practice what I can (and check out the Café!). I've found that the guys at the station are about as tough as an audience as I'll ever find and it keeps me on my toes. They are usually the first to see new effects (trial by fire, as it were). Good luck with everything and welcome to the Café! -J.R.

Hi Mark:
Welcome to the Café! Get a Jim Pace fire wallet (Hot Leads) for your business cards - what could be neater? Hand someone a flaming card and then blow it out, explaining your vocation and avocation. Jim |

I second that Mark!

Hi Jim:
No matter how good the magic is, when people see me, they say "give me one of your cards on fire". Jim |

Hot Leads has been invaluable for me. I've gotten several gigs based solely on that effect
