I hope there's not dvd !
a book eliminate 70% of the "pseudo" mentalist/magician. Read is becoming painful (lazy) for lot of people, what is great

I think the problem lies in the aesthetic of the delivery not the actual patter itself! Bob Cassidy has honed the patter for his routines for decades. The patter and the method should be connected like siamese twins if in fact it is well thought out! The part that becomes contrived and "fake" looking is when the performer of the effect takes on a different personality instead of using his own as he performs. So I guess the lesson is to use as much of the existing masterfully crafted patter as you possibly can and change only things that are NOT in sync with who you are.
This should work! Think about it, how many people in history have beautiful performances of the Tchaikovsky Piano Concerto? Aren't they all playing the exact same notes? It's the personality that differentiates them. I guess you have to also ask yourself if you wish to be remembered as a performer, a composer, or both. If you are GENUINE and EFFECTIVE in your performance, the audience doesn't care who invented the trick you are performing do they? You are an entertainer. The way any of US think about it is all a fantasy of the mind. Just some thoughts |
