If you do a google you will find other Bizarre Magick groups like the Shadow Network and too, many forums have special sections that deal exclusively with Bizarre styled material.
You would be doing yourself a very big favor picking up just about everything put out by Docc Hilford, Ed Solomon, Gene Poinc, and Bro. Shadow if this is the direction you are wanting to move into but keep certain things in mind.
1.) If you are over 30 years in age, you may want to reconsider the hard rock/grunge image... you're too old to be accepted by those that patronize said market.
2.) Unless you want to go hungry, DON'T PANDER TO THE AFOREMENTIONED MARKET... not only is it overly saturated by others seeking to mimic Criss Angel, David Blaine, etc. the majority of those involved in this scene are strung out, have little to no money, and are constantly looking for hand-outs vs. paying their way (I say this based on several years of working said market... it's simply not profitable!)
3.) It's easier to deliver solid Macabre type material when you appear to be "normal" than it is dressing in Goth Drag, looking strange, and trying to play a heavy "vampire-like" entity. The psychology is far superior in what you are doing from this position vs. the more dramatic & theatrical aspect that very few have the ability to pull off (or the willingness to get the coaching and direction that will allow them to pull it off in a believable manner).
Magic & Rock-n-Roll have been bed fellows for many years, including the bizarre side of it all. In the 70s Alice Cooper's "Nightmare" tour was composed of many grand illusions pulled together by James Randi & John Gaughan (I've actually used the Guillotine from that show on an ocassion or two). Franz Harary supplements his income by creating massive illusions for noted Rock/Recording artists like Janet Jackson, Madonna, etc. So don't think you're being "original" by seeking out this market, it is heavily influenced by effects designers of all kinds and it takes serious cash to make a dent into said venues, along side prove reputation.
These resources will get you started and too, you'll find other links and resources by checking them out.
Best of luck in your adventure.
