puppy love

ok i have to ask...... what do you mean puppy love?????

donny osmand the consumate proffessional that he is, if you whach one of his shows you get completely lost in his music which blends seemlessly from one song to another you dont realise you just sat through two hours of talk and singing.
each piece accompanies a set dialogue and his shows flow perfectly and are stage managed to the enth degree.

well thats what my mum says anyway.

ooohhh.. got you now... not that ive ever seen donny osmond for 2 hours so i'll have to take your word for it

I use a string of 3 regularly with mentalism.

HappyToad, I like that. By building up the impact of each effect you are making it far more believable when you do the final, seemingly impossible effect. If you just did your no. 3 trick then people would be more inclined to think it just a clever magic trick and would start to work out ways you could have done it, but by building it slower with the other two effects first then it's now logical for them to just have that inlking that maybe you are really doing this with mind reading techniques...

Very nice.

Seige - As always, it was interesting reading what you had to say on the subject. Talking of Escape Routines, I find the ID a great tool for practicing the classic force.

If it doesn't work then you can just use it as part of the ID routine...
