Reading Minds for Chevron

Entertained at a holiday luncheon for Chevron’s IT group on December 12th.

The event took place at Crow Canyon Country Club in Danville. Began with a bit of walk-around magic while guests arrived then a 45 minute mentalism performance after lunch.

Right from the start I could tell this group was up for a good time and they didn’t disappoint. One of my best sets!

There is more then one correct way to assemble the parts of a bicycle. If you make a bicycle, that is craft. If you make a “bulls head,” that is art.

Magic Castle Debut

On July 5th, 2011, I made my debut appearance at The Magic Castle in Hollywood, CA.

The Close-up Gallery, where I performed, is the most intimate performance space in The Castle.  Tiered seating for an audience of twenty-two provides the perfect venue for close-up sleight-of-hand magic.

The intense performing schedule — you’re booked to do 4 shows a night for a week! — certainly serve to focus one’s efforts.  It doesn’t take long for the act to get “tight” and for the creative juices to start flowing.  Unlike the walk-around entertaining I perform at corporate or private events, in The Close-Up Gallery I presented a theatrical-style close-up show.

Thanks to everyone who attended.

Don’t wait until everything is just right. It will never be perfect. There will always be challenges, obstacles and less than perfect conditions. So what. Get started now. With each step you take, you will grow stronger and stronger, more and more skilled, more and more self-confident and more and more successful.
