So, I'm getting ready for the off at this years Glastonbury Festival.

Last year the festival was off, ironically last year was blazing sunshine... Looking at the weather his morning looks like the return to the mud fest! Anyhow weather permitting I'll be performing an esoteric burlesque type show on the Circus field between 5 - 7pm I'll be wearing a white jacket and have a hired sexy assistant too (-:

The photo attached is me performing a street show 2004 taught by Gazzo no less.

I'll be looking out for other london magicians * too.

Lynx - Mynx


So tonight I was asked to perform some card stuff on the radio.

For the London Magicians visiting ...

I did a following effects none of them for hire (lol) :-

* Blindfold cut the aces with the Lynx Mynx covering my eyes.
* A Poker stack... great for radio (lol)
* Card thru window with soundproof glass (a la David Blaine)
* Bending Coin
* And a card routine...that was ambitious enough!

Tim Shaw, the presenter (very on the ball) had seen a lot of magic before he was right on the case!!! Trying to push me to make at least one mistake to no avail. He did Invite me back saying that I was much better than all the other magicians they had on!

On air we spoke about Cons scams bets and a mars bar in a pint of beer that looks like a turd.

I had a good time the Lynx Mynx was hot she was accompanied by 3 geezers who considered themselves players...they were nice guys but frankly rubbish! They had won a competition?? and were are off to Miami to try and charm some ladies with tuition from the Mynx...I think there English accent is there only hope!

I enjoyed the show very much ....Tim told me that it was a quiet one. Anyhow, the up-shot was I was unconditionally Invited back which I will take Tim and Lucy up on!

Good show! Late now so I'm off....

Sorry for not spel checkig this btw.

Deceptionist


I a bit to become a little bit pretentious not satisfied of being termed as a 'Close-up table magician in London' I decided to Trademark the word 'Deceptionist' So now I'm the only one that can use it in conjunction with the entertainment industry. wow!

So not only am I the best 'deceptionist' in my house...now technically best one in the World! lol it does have a bit better gravitas than London Close up Magician!

That's got to be good.

Asian Magic


So I'm in Asia, so far been to Hong Kong and China currently in Guangzou.

We head back to Hong Kong on Saturday.

Performed some coin magic today for some chap who was selling old chinese coins on a foot bridge. (Random) Anyhow he liked it a lot, then before I knew it I had a crowd of on lookers. Decied to stop as I didn't want to cause a problem with onlooking soldiers. Strangely Chinese coins did not have a hole in the middle! I have been sold a lie by all those magic dearlers.

In the photo I'm entertaining Kims suppliers at a lunch.

Back in London for this magician


So, Back in London Pefromed at a few corporate gigs already, one for Matrix Money and a few private house partys. All went very well! The money one was a themed as 'Prohibition' where I got to perform my gambling carney set; Lots of poker themed routines and 4 ace tricks.

London is a great place to perform magic the crowds are always that little bit dubious in a (London kind of way) The L.A Crowd were great cos they got off on the accent alone. I did enjoy perfoming to a theatre rather than walkaround close-up magic. Updated my Podcast for the castle http://web.mac.com/savruse/iWeb/Sav%20Podcast/Podcast/CAE19D73-7174-41F3-95E6-119C1B9B1416.html

Lots of enquirys are coming in which hopefully pay for the wedding!
