Here’s what the papers say about Mr.Wilson, the Honest Con-Man and two-time FISM winner:

“Gregory Wilson is much more than a magician. He breaks stereotypes and the law at the same time!
As a world-class sleight of hand artist (okay, con artist), he earns his laughs and living with pick-pocketing, card-sharking, street-swindling and psychological deceptions.
Picture The Sting and Catch Me If You Can.  In Greg’s show, nothing is what it seems.  You’ll questions reality and before you know it, he’s “Con In 60 Seconds!”
His “M.O.” is to make you laugh so hard, you never notice your missing watch and wallet.  But, since he is the “Honest Con,” after he steals your valuables sometimes he gives them back.  Deception has never been this much fun!
Greg’s “criminal act” is world class—literally.  Over the last decade, he has “stolen the show” in over 40 states in this country, 5 provinces in Canada, 26 countries in Europe, as well as Australia, New Zealand, South America and Israel.
He has wowed and worked with such celebrities as Ted Danson, Mel Brooks, Anne Bancroft, Jason Alexander, Dean Koontz, Paul Haggis, Bill Pullman, Kevin Pollack, Bill Walton, Rod Laver, Jim Brown, Larry Elder, Wynton Marsalis, Natalie Cole, Pat Benatar, Aerosmith, Stone Temple Pilots, Jefferson Starship and Heart.
His con artistry has been seen in the movies, on TV and in some of the finest theaters worldwide.”[/u]

Will be at the 3SM event - get back from a trip away in Cornwall that day - lucky, would have been annoyed if I had missed it.
