Just got back from the Blackpool convention and have been looking through the programme.
In the back there are 45 "Star Magicians Appearing at the 2010 convention" -
Firstly, we have to assume the word "Appearing" is used quite loosely!
There are a fair few who are not magicians or didnt actually perform but had a dealers stall!
Was the budget a bit low this year?
Whilst Kaplan, Clive Webb & Danny Adams and David & Dania where all good they all appeared on both show nights. (poor Dania even showed - up 3 times with a bit of hula hooping in the middle!)
Anyhoo - on to the positive:
1. As ever - The Ruskin.
2. Clive & Danny soaking the stage and the Blackpool Magicians club.
3. Dave Williamson
4. Shoot Owaga's lecture
5. Great dealers Fair.
6. Private workshop with Shoot Owaga
7. Kaplan
8. Henry Evans
9. Ed Ellis
10. Quick Change (the first time you see it)
By the way, anyone manage enough misdirection to get out of the Ruskin with a glass?

Note from Mods - there's an existing thread on this at http://www.talkmagic.co.uk/ftopic34177.php , please add your thoughts to that one - ta!
