First and foremost, I want to thank Obie O’Brien for giving me, a-nobody, a chance to perform on his stage. Thank you Obie!

The single greatest moment being a magician, for me.

April 1999


The quality isn’t that great but at least you can see what goes on at the world's greatest close-up magic convention. Even though you can’t see the coins that great, you’ll get the idea.

Your comments, feedback, suggestions or just good ol' fashion ridicule are welcome and appreciated.

Rannie

Thanks Rannie, I appreciate it. Coming from you, that means a lot to me!

It would be an honor to sponsor you at a 4-F one day!

Looked great! Well done buddy!

Thanks Pete. Truly one of the highlights of my life!

Im mad... its not working for me, I keep pressing it and it 'acts' like its going to play, then it just shows the starting picture and doesn't play for me. :-( ARGH! Im sure its great though


Hey Justin, when can I hear that story about the D'lites

I don't know why it won't play for you! It's really a thing af beauty and I hope youcan get it to play. Are you clicking on the link?

I will get to the D'Lite story soon, promise.

I would like to know why I am not getting more comments???

I reply to and leave comments to almost everybodys clips but yet I don't see any love in return?

What's up with that?

WOW ..........WHAT STYLE................
Justin your name fits you to the tee ..That would be a proud moment for anyone I loved the way you used the music for your performing STYLE opps there I go again .. lol
Justin I hope some day to meet and share magic with you..
take care my friend once again BRAVO
the godfather

You're great! And your hands are like... WOW. I wonder what else they could do. Hahaha. Kidding aside, thanks for sharing the video. AUdience handling was superb, though, I also had the same problem as Anthony, I had to switch laptops. Hehe. Maybe it's the adobe flash thing again... Video error aside, this is a sure fav! I wish the boss could bring you to manila so we could watch another coin god at work.

Mr Style,

For every session we have, the boss never fails to mention your name. Now I know why. Great video sir! And like what cyssa said, we sincerely hope the Manila Famiglia could watch you live.

Man, it's really something performing there. What a great moment for you Justin! Done with style. Yeah, the Boss always mentions you. Even tries to break you world record. LOL! Those good old silver coins make it easier to see even if the camera is far away.

The look on your face from backstage was priceless STYLE! The look of pure joy and excitement. What an inspiration. I remember just performing for a gathering of magicians the first time.... heck they were even my friends and mentors... I remember feeling uneasy. To think I have no SHAME! They even call me Mr. Ice in the industry....BUT no! I was shaking the first time. From the camera's distance ....plus ROCCO's fantastic camera work , it was hard to see the hands. I see the coins alright! The way you handled what started as a pretty cold crowd to an almost wild crowd...was awesome. I also appreciate the support from ROCCO. I hear him chuckle... This reminds me of myself when I take footages of my friends and students.... I am alays the first you hear to chuckle or shout...."YEAH"!

Later Style!

Rannie

Wow! Thanks you guys, I appreciate your feedback!

Dear Don-Vincenzo;

I thank you for your comments; I humbly kneel before you, to kiss your ring in acknowledgement and acceptance of your praise. Your approval means a lot to me and today I feel like a made man!

Cyssa,
Please don’t tempt me…lol or one of these days, these hands are gonna walk all over you! Your comment is sweet, but please, I am nowhere near great. I’m just a no body from New Jersey! (With a great, killer, Hudson River view of NYC)

Schwarzeine,

Let’s get one thing straight. My friends call me Justin! My farther is MR. Style, Capece?

OK. Thanks for the compliment, I hope to meet you all one day, I’m just scared of traveling these days, know what I’m saying?


Verricobl,

Thanks!

Rannie,

Thanks! Call me Just-no-fear in Style! Gotta love the moment; never waste energy on the negative. Enjoy every moment, because you know, it might be the last. I never want to say “what if”

Remember, it did start a little cool. And I was loaded and ready to go, so I could have let that moment get to me. But I never care; I don’t let that stuff affect me. I have an agenda and I am going to stick with it. I never force anyone to watch my performance, but (Always) by the end, they are into it. I’m glad you noticed that, thanks.

But let me say this. That was not Rocco laughing. It was a guy sitting next to him. I love that guy and wish I knew who he is? His laugh is great.


:cheers: Everybody!

Justin,

WOW! Excellant video my friend. Definitly enjoyed it, and you're a helluva entertainer. I especially liked that little italien joke you threw in there. LOL!

Good Luck bro, I'm sure this won't be the last we hear of you doing great things.

Best.
Steve

Just watched it AGAIN and yer right JS, MAMA MIA! I know you sure give this novice coin man inspiration!
Mick

Hey Steve and Mickey -

Thanks, I appreciate your feedback and nice words! Even though the video is shakey, I'm glad I have that moment captured!

And a belated Happy Birthday, Mick!

Justin
