Sirens, Anybody have a good line to get the attention back when a siren is heard and everybody looks off to see what is happening? Or when a cell phone rings in your edge?

The tornado will now shuffle the 52 cards up in mid-air, and then impale a single card on my chest with this paper clip. Oh.....wait....it's just a drill. Shoot, there goes the finale!
Just off the top of my head and slightly graphic, but hey.

Siren? Hmmm.... try shouting "Watch out for the flying purple elephants!" followed by you jumping for cover. *shrug*
As for cell phones, if they have some kind of catchy dance tune, feel free to dance to it to grab a laugh....OR...quickly run and grab the phone before they can answer and if there is a name on the caller id, pickup and say "I knew you would call, <insert caller's name>. I am the great magician <insert name here> and I knew you would call as of yesterday. Today I am fulfilling the prophecy I made to the audience I am performing for now. Do not fear, we shall speak again later." and hang up before they can say anything. Improvise on my idea if you like. I guarantee it should get a laugh. Hope I helped - Alex

I like the cell phone premonition, but I'd bet most people wouldn't like you running over and grabbing their cell phone out of their hands, then hanging up on their friend. I like the concept, just not the grabbing without asking and whatnot.
I do, however like the dancing bit...good thinking.

Just like you BigT, it was a rough idea. I'll give it some more thought, but no guarantees.

I like the tornado idea. Draw their attention with something absurd. I just got an idea....... Tell them, "Folks that is the ambulance coming to get a guy from my last crowd, he didn't tip and it made the rest of the crowd angry, I just hope they didn't hurt him to bad." |

Hey Jesse,
I like your new idea! Very few things will make me laugh when I read them but that did! I once read a thread of peoples worst performing experiencs and a guy who did a nudist beach show at a hotel made me howl!! I wish I could find that thread again, but I can't! |

Actually I think your best line was written here in these postings and not seen. So here's my thought... and I will be really surprised if you don't get a genuine laugh out of it... when the Siren goes off... look at the crowd and say, "Now that's a loud cell phone", or if you use any jokes at the beginning of your act, about turning off all cell phones and beepers, you can use it as a call back when the siren goes off... "I THOUGHT I SAID TURN OFF ALL CELLPHONES!"
