I would love to come to Showzam. I will be at the Castle MCing the 50th Anniversary week and then head to Detroit to do a month run of our con artistry onstage show. After that, I'm open and would love to come to Blackpool. It is very possible that we will be showing the Play Dead film at the IBM national convention this year.

Hi Todd, You would have a great time! Bring the family and I KNOW your son would love it! Jon Marshall re-constructs six or seven of the original nineteen fifties and sixties Blackpool 'Golden Mile' sideshows. He varies them from year to year, but we usually get 'Electra'. 'The Headless Lady' and a couple of years ago he presented 'The Butterfly Girl' (lots of magicians in for the convention had no idea how it worked!).
There are lots of other features and shows around the town, including street entertainers. It's possible that Norman Barrett may be at home too! Leslie
Stories....?....That's telling!

Well, I want to set the record straight. Shawn sent me a nice note after seeing this thread. He said he apologized for the bad impression. It takes a stand up guy to do that and I really appreciated it.

Shawn was a great guy. In fact I found all of the folks there are very approachable. It was my second time attending and had some great conversations. Just sorry that I didn't get time to spend with Ed.
Thanks to the ICBM and friends who has made storytelling magic shine so brightly. Hope that we have some new and maybe younger folks attend next year, so they can learn how powerful storytelling magic is. As our MC (who was more of a warm inviting host) said late Sunday "This is what a convention should be." Michael |

As a fellow performer and the sound & lighting guy all weekend, I must say that, aside from Shawn's friendly demeanor and awesometastic personality, he was the consummate professional to work with from the technical end of things. He wasn't difficult at all, what he needed was minimal and very clear, and was very complimentary and grateful for what I was doing.
This was one of my favorite Gatherings due to the awesome people that made it great. Shawn, Chris Capehart, Todd, Harley, Losander, The Steelgraves, and all of my other ICBM family members were so awesome to hang with and work with. So much so, that sleep was not very high on my list of priorities. We missed some of our family who couldn't make it, but that just means when ALL of us make it next year, it will be EPIC! |
