WOW that felt good!

Curious about the title, let me explain.
Just did a few card routines at a family party. Nothing special, but it was different, mostly I performto small groups (about 4ish) but here ther were at least 15. If youve done pro youll probably think thats pants but it was a big marker along the road for me.
Any hoo lets get to the tricks.
It went something like revolver, this really grabbed attention and showed I meant buisness, then onto my variation of Dan Fleshmans routine "Momma in my wallet", which worked great. then a couple of others from the RRTCM. All this was wrapped up in the patter that I trained my cards to do tricks, similar to circus animals. This really helped when I fluffed one of the tricks (lost the card when I shuffled, stupid mistake) but it was accidentaly revealed to me, so covering my mistake I was able to say since I saw it the magic wouldnt work. Which fooled them :twisted:
The a TT appearence of a silk using the purse frame from the spongeball toolbox since that is a favourite.

That was it and it felt amazing.
Would have liked to have done some sponge stuff but I'm not 100% confident with it and haven't worked out a routine yet. Ditto with coins.

It's not the size of the audience really, it's whether you entertained them or not and it looks like you did a good job.

Well done, that man!
