Good Morning 7

Postby LewyD » Sep 16th, '09, 10:36



Good Morning - my name is Lewy, i registered a couple of weeks ago and forgot about it but found myself browsing here again last night and now i am back.

I'm into some magic and mentalism although alot of effects don't interest me - i prefer mentalism because it has much more feeling to it and a better effect.

I practice, but i don't perform much, i started out with card magic whilst waiting for my reading ticket to arrive the summer before last (long story, but it got sent to the wrong address, so i missed half of the first day lol) and managed to learn some good sleight of hand which is now quite perfected.

I am probably Derren Brown's biggest fan since he was the first person i knew who did this stuff and is therefore my inspiration.

I am a amateur poker player and am just starting to dabble with playing blackjack - [i wonder why]

I don't like how people reveal lots worthwhile sleights/tricks because a lot of the people they are revealed TO are probably just going through a phase, but also cos it takes quite a lot of digging and research to learn them yourself and then it seems a waste of effort to see people just giving it away to others who can't be f****d to search themselves. NOT cos im over patriotic about "keeping magic secret" or something cos the main secret to magic is... YOU TRICK PEOPLE.

Enough of that though. :D i look forward to browsing and contributing to this site in the future and since im not a complete beginner i am willing to help people out with certain things if they ask!

laterzz peeps

Welcome to TM. :)

It's been said by many performers better than myself that a magician's job is to mystify and to entertain. Once you've told someone how something is done, you've done neither. I'm happy that most of my participants get that. :)
