Has anyone else seen the post he made on myspace as follows:
I just wanted to drop a quick note to all of my friends out there. Over the past several months I've been thinking about my career in magic, and where I wanted to go with it. Ultimately, I've decided that I'm going to quit performing and producing magic. I feel that I've taken this particular road in my life as far as it's going to go. To be honest, I'm looking forward to pursuing other opportunities, and just kind of seeing where life takes me. Magic will ALWAYS hold a special place in my heart. I really appreciate all of the support that my family, friends, and fans have given me throughout my career. Goodbye!!! Thank you ALL for everything!!

I'm sure that whatever he decides to move towards, he will bring the energy and creativity that he has brought to his performances and will succeed.

Jim/Tony,
I agree - Spun is an awesome effect that is amazingly strong (bending a coin...while it's floating...in mid air...) combined with the work he did to add on to Banachek's fork bending is all superb stuff. Hopefully his effect with the melting glass bottle will still be released via some website - and I wish him the best.

I was able to talk to Morgan last night on the phone for about 2 hours. While not all of it was about magic, the latter part was. He should be releasing something to iTricks later today or perhaps on the weekend.
Here are some of the things we talked about: 1. This is legit, he really wants everyone to know that this is no stunt and he currently has no plans on returning (but he didn't rule it out in the very distant future, never say never). He wants to make it perfectly clear that this is no stunt and he's not trying to promote anything (which is why he won't be taking interviews) 2. Molten will not be released 3. He is trying new things and is excited about his new direction. He really appreciates his fans, but his current desire is elsewhere. 4. He will be on my show next week (Scrapplesandwich.com) but won't be talking about magic at all. I will let the rest of the information come out from iTricks, but in the 2 1/2 hour conversation I had with Morgan, I can say that this choice is for the best for him. |

Listen to this weeks itricks podcast, the opening topic is about Morgan! It is really interesting to say the least. If this is true information, all I can say is wow and what a darn shame a creator like this did something like that. But Morgan hasn't commented on anything, so right now who knows what is true and what is not!

So he's quitting magic to get a real job? Should be the other way around...
