When I perform with my fiancee, I usually have it on at the beginning of the day. After the cups and balls portion of the show, I take off the pouch because it gets in the way for our finale.

Then, depending on how fast we get into our next show, I'll either put it on before the set or right before the cups.

For me it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter when I put the pouch on because people still come up and ask where the balls came from. It doesn't matter if the backtrack the balls to the pouch. The next step is to wonder how they got from the pouch to under the cups. THAT takes skill. I'd rather have them think that than come up with something stupid like trap doors built into the table top.

EvilDan,
I am in agreement I really don not think it matters. I have done it both ways myself, the reaction is no different either way. When performing show after show several hours a day it is nice to have the bag off.

A former busker named Harry Anderson began the c&b segment on one of his TV specials by picking up his magician apron from the table an putting it on. He didn't call it anything.
One of the last living 10-in-one performers. I wanted to be in show business the worst way, and that was it.

I always used a set of the Gary Animal Gazzo cups because I loved the way they feel and handle but recently have swapped them out for a set of RNT2 Babes. The loads have changed also, I'm using the Wilson tennis balls and Michael Ammar's 4 fruit loads as the double finale. Feels like I dropped about 20 pounds from my pouch, my back loves it..I can remember after a day of busking looking for the Aleve bottle but not any more.
If I don't use the pouch then I can switch back to Frank's servante that attaches directly to my table.


I can certainly see the benefit, weight wise, of using the Ammar fruit loads but they feel so light it feels like they would blow away. Which would kinda ruin the effect. Has that ever been a problem for you?

They're not sponge balls, they work really well as final loads...
