First off I would like to formally introduce myself to the Café, I like many others have been a "lurker" for about a year now on the Café but only just recently found out I would be travelling with family to Vegas this year for two weeks. This gave me the push to create an account so I could ask some more experienced magicians out there if they had any suggestions for places or shows I HAD to see while in Vegas area. I can appreciate David Copperfield like shows with elaborate props and illusions but I tend to prefer close up card magic and mentalist acts. Any and all suggestions are welcomed greatly and thank you in advance for your time!

P.S I searched pretty hard for the right category to put this post in but couldn't find one, so I decided to put it here since it will be my first post hope this isn't an inconvenience.

Check out the Mac King show its gret fun.

Jeff McBride.

Well, though, not a show.. I highly recommend that you go to Gary Darwin's Magic Club (no cost) and if you're a card guy, see if you can't meet Allan Ackerman there.

Back in March, I was quite fortunate, I met Allan there.. He, Gary, a few other magicians and I headed out and had a late meal in one of the casinos and we spent the whole night playing with cards. It was one of the most wonderful experiences of my life.

Would second the Mac King show, look for 'free' tickets.

MacKing for sure and Penn & Teller, of course.
