Thanks.

Thanks Tab... I'm sending two new KILLER routines from Lu Chen. He performs my Linking Finger Rings ... note the ending with the rings visibly unlinking, and a routine with Just A Key, where he puts a spoon through the hole on the key. He blew me away with the latter. Both will be available to purchase on my site later this week. But now, I gotta go out and finish my Christmas Shopping

Pete you gonna bring any of those books to WMS this year?

Absolutely... might even have two more finished by then. Stevens is the dealer for them. Maybe have a "book signing" session at WMS.

I love the tweezer trick !!!!

Thanks Cardone... having a tough time making them fast enough.

New video added from Lu Chen doing Pete's Folding Key in Bottle.

We just added a hilarious (to me) demonstration of how strong a Porper Card Clip is.

I would have given my kingdom tonight if someone had video taped my performance of TWEEZERS at the dinner table. The screams and laughs and reactions from laymen were more than I expected. And the double kicker finish fried 'em.

I really did love the Tweezers routine. I can see the surprise sponge at the end being strong for a lay audience, but I think it should have stopped with the pea being pulled out by the tweezers. I was really surprised by it. I love the shell game, and thought "Ok, this is standard." right up until the nested shells. Great thinking!

It's not a sponge but a solid 1-inch rubber ball. The timing is important...let the finish settle in, then as an after comment I said... "I bet you thought I used a second pea... I did... but it's (lift and show) Blue."

Two new Lu Chen vdieos available on Pete's site just uploaded. Go to http://PeteBiro.com and click on Video Clips the two new ones are right on top. I think you'll really enjoy them. They are in Japanese and the magic is transcendent.

Then be sure and save me a copy of each! See you at WMS!

The light bulb trick looks absolutely fabulous. Is this commercially available?

Lu Chen magic is available from Pete but you need to email him. Theres a link on his website for that.

HERE'S THE SCOOP: The ONLY things I sell that Lu Chen performs are the props for the Key in Bottle $169, Key on Spoon $100, Linking Finger Rings w/pencil that unlinks last ring $695. Also "Just IN Case" done by an unknown perfomer. These are all my effects, manufactured by Joe Porper. Paypal.

Other items: Coins thru Glass and Dean's Triangle you get from Dean Dill.

Tweezers, Ken Brooke Rope, Pete's Peeper and my three books all buy via links there from Stevens magic.

I need to sort out how to say this on my web site... hope to do in a coupld of days.

... and new video uploaded last night too!

Lu Chen's lightbulb trick has me BAFFLED...FRIED... NO CLUE... LOVE IT.

Lu Chen's penetrations in the mall are my favorite. The methods should be pretty obvious to magicians but still it looks great and the audience loved it. He is a supurb magical performer transcending language. It's my favorite Lu Chen so far.

Wow.. That lightbulb effect is really something else. Talk about original.. I have no clue how that thing is accomplished. And I also love thst scene in the mall as well. The whole premise of the illusion is simply outstanding. I had never heard of Lu Chen before this, I'm going to have to watch some more of his videos!

Lu Chen also does a routine where he merges two eggs together much like the light bulbs. You can see more of his stuff on my web site.
