For Jeff's secret session of Sunday afternoon we will be in On the stage area so we will have lots of room. http://www.magi-whirl.org

Here's a 30-second trailer for Jeff's "Magic at the Edge" show that he will be doing a big chunk of at Magi-Whirl 2009 April 17-18 in Alexandria, VA.

Congrats to Jeff for this award. We now have two AMA award winners at this event.

Magi-Whirl was fantastic!

Jeff McBride alone was worth attending. And there was much more!

We can't wait to see Magic-Whirl 2010.
