Thank you to everybody who came out to see my show tonight at Westside Daze! I had a blast- the audience had so much energy!

Don’t forget about all the other great events going on for Westside Daze 2008:
June 30th schedule
July 1st schedule

I was also featured in an article for Westside Daze last week, but I haven’t gotten a chance to scan it yet and post it. Hopefully I’ll get a chance to do that next week.

I’ve never had a chance to see David Copperfield live before, but I grew up working his magic specials on TV and wanted to be like him. Well, Now I’ve learned that in my magic I’d rather be me than David Copperfield, I still love watching him perform. At the end of August when I goto Vegas I’m hopefully going to get a chance to see David perform as well. I can’t wait!

I came across this video of David performing a classic routine with a twist. Its done just brilliantly. Enjoy!

The Magic of David Copperfield – Mr. Roger’s bandana trick

At the start of every Pixar film they have a little short comic movie before the “featured presentation”. For the next movie coming out tomorrow (June 27th) titled Wall-e, There’s going to be a pre-short filmed called ‘Presto’.

“Presto DiGiotagione, a turn-of-the-century magician, is famous for an astounding hat trick. Presto’s apprentice rabbit, Alec, however, is dissatisfied as he shares none of Presto’s wild success. While Presto is out eating lavish dinner, Alec is left behind, locked in a birdcage with a carrot torturously out of reach. Directed by Doug Sweetland. Sweetland also voices Presto and Alec. 5 min”

Lance Burton will be on ABC’s The View either tomorrow (June 26th) or the next day (June 27th). After its over I’ll see if I can find a video of the segment for anybody who missed it.

Well, fret not my Canadian friends who can’t watch Celebracadabra on VH1, or even on the VH1 website. It turns out that Celebracadabra will be airing on Much More Music. You need to check your local listings, but it looks like tomorrow (June 22nd) that show will air at 10:30am, at 6:00pm, 9:00pm, and Midnight. Each time slot is airing the premiere episode of “street magic”.

Thanks iTricks for rounding up youtube clips of all the magicians that performed on Letterman’s Magic Week. You’ll notice that Friday nights performers, Penn and Teller are missing. They performed what seems to be their new “signature effect”. I had heard about it, but never seen it, so it was a joy to finally see it myself.

Here’s the clip roundup:
David Letterman-Lance Burton-May-5-2008

David Letterman-Mac King-May-6-2008

David Letterman-Magician Steve Wyrick-May-8-2008

Dirk Arthur on David Letterman 5-07-08

And again, sorry no Penn and Teller I looked for the clip just like iTricks but wasn’t able to find it either.

Hope you had a good one
