Revolution is great I do it all the time

If it's Impromptu material you're after then why not look into Jay Sankey's "Anytime, Anywhere" DVD - It's specifically impromptu magic with borrowed items.

Also, for card tricks not all of them are impromptu but the tricks on Andrew Murray's "Thirteen" have been invaluable for me.

thanks guys i really appreciate the comments

yeah, so far recently the trick thats making everybody freak out and they have other people run to me is the bite out quater trick. very very simple but very strong.

yeah i dont own that trick yet...but i want it...theres so much to buy lol

Haunted key?

im not familiar with that trick

Well mine is coming tomorrow Speak to Flash about the haunted key, he really likes it.

'A large Precision Mortice "Key" slowly turns over in your hand or in the hand of a spectator. Totally examinable before and after your performance. No threads, No wires, No magnets and can be performed surrounded. Self contained. Always ready to perform. Perfect for street entertainers'

wow that sounds really cool...im guessing this in on ellusionist or penguin ill have to check out the price and stuff

This is just my opinion but I think if your going to perform in school I think you should stick to cards, money, and everyday objects.....rubber bands, rings, pens and pencils. It's just my opinion. The haunted key or at least the ones i've seen are old keys...like skeleton keys....not used much any more. I would save this for a close-up show or something at your house to show people like 'Look at this I found this in my Grandparent's house'

Whilst i agree with your suggestion to keep objects familiar whilst using them around school I don't see why this justification for the object couldn't be used at school.

You can use ANY item you like to do your magic but you need to justify your reason for having it. If you can do can get away with anything!

yeah i agree...in school i usually always use cards and a few coin stuff but i have gig type thing that im doing at a business in town and i thought this might go good there somewhere in my routine...any thoughts?

If you are interested in the Haunted Key effect then I'd check out this thread.

It is suitable to be performed in both contexts, but it is an effect that relies heavilly on your ability to tell a good yarn...

thanks i read through that and im interested in buying...but i see the gold version isnt good to buy...anyone have a link to the silver key version it would be greatly appreciated

hi, im 16 and have performed many tricks to my friends. one i would suggest is mindbender, the price is outrageous, thank god i borrowed it from a friend. post me if you want imput. dont do revolution, BAD! TORN is good and coin through soda can. just try ne thing and see what happens
