I'm so excited. Tonight I became a Magician Member of the Academy of the Magical Arts at the Magic Castle!

I performed a rope, matrix and a triumph routine and was nervous as all get out.

My wife 'forced' me to get on with it and audition tonight and man am I glad she did!

Just wanted to share the excitement! Smile

I would love to join the Magic Castle, but I am in Michigan, and I would like to know if there are out of state members who can really justify the yearly fees, etc., if perhaps only a yearly visit would get you your money's worth. Smile

I think it is worth the money to out of state members even if they never go to the Castle. The prestige and added credentials of being a member, and the ability to give guest passes to clients and friends who may be going to Los Angeles more than outweigh the expense of out of state membership.

I have been a member of the Magic Castle since 1976, and it has always been a big advantage, even when I moved back to the east coast for five years. It was always impressive to my corporate clients that I could get them in to this place that they had heard of, but didn't think they would ever get to see.

In fact, I rarely give out guest passes, instead I give them my business card and tell them to call me whenever they want to go. That way I can call the Castle and make their reservation for them. They will keep that business card forever. I have had clients call me five years and more later, and often sparked shows out of the deal. Worth the little bit of trouble to phone in a reservation, yes?

Congratulations!

If we ever meet at the Castle ask me about my audition: it makes for an hilarious story.

I would also like to thanks thumbslinger for his advice. I auditioned for the Juniors and was accepted.

Thanks,

Zak

Hey Zak that's great!

Maybe I'll see you up there some Sunday. I know a large group of Juniors seem to meet up there sometimes...

What a coincidence that you heard my name and put two and two together. Nice meeting you in person.

Hope to meet you again,

Zak
