OK so back to Eric and getting ready for my July 4th stage show.
Here's the link to my performance this weekend. What a thrill it was to sit down until
1:30 with magicians who actually worked with the Masters like Dai Vernon.oh...my...goodness.
Anyway, I hope you like my performance here.

Glenn Brooks (see in my YouTube vid in a hat, tie and jacket stage left, knows Eric Jones!
Wow this whole weekend was a dream come true and everyone was so nice.

As for the routine by Eric Jones, I performed it for some folks in the hotel lobby who were visiting from Georgia. I received a bit more than polite applauds. They asked me to do additional magic and thank you Jeff McBride for the thumbtip and color silk streamer idea. THAT put the finishing touch on a quick 5 minute impromptu performance.

I'm going to move on to the next part of Eric's DVD. Although I like this routine, the Han Chien Pin needs a lot of practice. Especially when performing with a person's hand as the table. And I really don't see the reason for it, in regards to the performance. Why not, in the eyes of the spectator, simply move the coins up in the left hand? For the Performer, it's needed for the next manipulation.

Like I said, I know have Mirage et Trois to the four coins across as a little routine.
(I get the fourth coin by splitting the third coin of Mirage in two)
But I'm going to see what's next.

Also I bough Metal 2 from Eddie of Diamond's Magic. That DVD is loaded with routines and will be next on my list of DVDs to work on.
