Hiya Gang!

I get a few e-mails every week asking, after performing so many Magic Fridays, what actually makes my cut. And, after writing a series of essays about working gigs over here, I thought it might be cool to add a pic to the mix!

So here's what I performed last night.

How about everyone else? What's in your case?

My best,

Jeeze, you got a lot 'O balls Jamie.

If mine was as neat as yours, I'd post it.
I am getting so tired of slitting the throats of people who say that I am a violent psychopath.

Lyle, I have five of those ears for a pretty gross routine I perform around Halloween or by very special request (OITPTITH) . Randi makes nice stuff, yes?

What do you keep in you case besides props ?
One of the last living 10-in-one performers. I wanted to be in show business the worst way, and that was it.
