Now you can see where the money is in this business. Tickets starting at $195.00 a pop.

Personally, I'm not a fan. Still, I'm sure one could learn a great deal from watching Mr. Edward work.

You can pick up a video on eBay of Johnny Magee working and still sleep at night knowing that you money is not going to a fraud. This is not the business of show, it's religion, even if it's done in Vegas.

Fraud? I've watched him on tv for years. I thought this was on the up and up. Having never been dead before, I have no reason to think otherwise.

On the contrary, you were dead for billions of years.

There are plenty if reasons to think otherwise, even if he had not been caught doing hit reading at least once. JE is a fraud.

*** those hit readers!

Just cant believe anyone is taken in by this man, its all about money and no regard for peoples emotions usualy at a difficult time in their lives.

Don't worry... I'm sure Penn and Teller as well as Criss Angel will be protesting out front. You know, saving the gullible from being taken in. Acting in line with their stated morals.

Then again they might just keep their mouths shut; politeness between strip venues and such.

It will be interesting to see. Of all towns Vegas has the names to call out JE.

John Edward and Sylvia Brown have been working Vegas for years.

$210 per ticket...

I was just curious

Over $200 per ticket? Now that is just insane! Stupidity really has no limits...

Why do we care?

I am glad such behavior concerns you. John Edward is acting out of line with his stated morals and relies now on feigned politeness while he preys on the grieving. I will take the imperfect but still honest behavior of P and T every time.

Slow news day?

Who cares?

JE's work helps a lot of people.

Again -- why do WE CARE?

Mainly because I think he hurts people as opposed to helping, but if you do not care you needn't participate.

I personally do not support this kind of so called mediumship, it is making entertainment out of grief and fear... and if you lose anyone close to you, you have enough life experience and memories of them to know any answer to any question might pose to them, regardless of them being alive or not...its called knowing someone well...

if the people who are greiving and are having trouble getting back to living a healthy life, and accepting that doing so isn't forgetting those that have died, then they need help with kindness and understanding from family and friends - including a gently hard word to get them to go to bereavement counselling if that's what it takes...

you do not need someone on stage, with that inate sense of voyeurism mixed in with hope and vague answers being thrown out - that is not the healthiest of answers...i understand for some that it has worked, and it has helped, however overall, it is not the best answer for them really... and in my view, it makes somewhat of a mockery out of the memory of the person who has died...

I also understand that there's genuine people out there who want to help, and believe that what they are doing is mediumship and a genuine ability they have...as well as wanting to help pass on messages and help people feel better....however that too is ultimately, in my view, not beneficial either... I have some friends that are "into it", a couple that pass on messages or help others make contact, I do not think them as deluded, silly nor evil and manipulative, I just think there's another label and answer to what they believe they do...

if I were there, I would try and arrange a small group to go and hand out business cards for therapy, charities and all that kind of stuff...if you can get through to one person, then that's a good thing...

I do not think mediumship is a healthy thing, and certainly not when its tied in with vegas...

I'm just not sure what the point of posting this on a forum like this is.

What is the post suppoed to do -- incite a riot? An angry mob?

Seems odd to me.

Why do mentalists always find an axe to grind with someone?

Pity...
