Payne:
Your cups and balls routine is superb...one of THE best cups and balls routines I have ever seen in my life. Congratulations! To answer your questions: I would think it would make sense to offer this routine as BOTH a standalone manuscript/Digital Download which you can later re-package and then later redistribute as a chapter in your planned book. That way you can get some mileage out of it and magicians can have two different purchase options at two different price points. The cups and balls are certainly important enough in the history of magic to warrant this, and your routine has enough twists and turns to offer a unique performance advantage to workers. Best of luck on your new book...I look forward to seeing it. |

It's available here http://www.lulu.com/shop/master-payne/so......010.html It is my thoughts on the performance of magic as well as the creativity matrix I use to create new presentations. It includes several of my routines as examples of my thinking. I'm still working on the Bible. I know how it ends. I'm just having trouble working out the begining.

Didn't you also made a filmed lecture on certain topics that your book for sure covers? Is that marketed?

Master Payne, I agree with Lawrence, FatHatter, and all the rest of your fans. I have watched your performance repeatedly and continue to be entertained. I have your Sometimes the Jokes...and found it invaluable. I would snap up a longer work on general magic or the cups, or both. And a DVD package with them.

Master Payne..... I love the routines, the costumes, and the presentation. Insight from you as well as Bill Palmer or any performer that has done this for years and knows the ins and outs of it is very valuable to anyone wanting to try it out. Experience is the best teacher and YOU, SIR (pun intended there) know your stuff. Best of luck and keep us infomed of how, when, cost, and such.....

Payne I say go for it. I'd say put it in the book with the other items however.

Payne, I'm surprised you're asking! Your C&B routine and performance are both excellent. I think more people should be aware of your magic and humor and of you as a performer. Yes, there is a market to purchase whatever material you're willing to share in whatever format you choose.

Thus the thread raised a question worth repeating: Master Payne are you going to publish your routine or leave us in pain?
