You give ETMCM Vol 1 five stars and volume 2 only three? For me it's quite the opposite.
Drive Carefully

Well, I'm biased because vol.1 was the first magic video I ever got, and I learned and used 95% of the material on it. A much higher percentage then any other tape I own.

I just traded for Daryl's Card Revelations vol. 1 & 2. What is it you don't like? I've watched 3/4 of vol 1, and LOVE this stuff. I'm going to trade for the rest of the volumes, as there is some valuable card stuff here, and it's quite entertaining just to sit and watch.
Granted, I'm no card expert, but do have an appreciation for Daryl. His personality is such, that, after a bad day at work (or breakup with girlfriend, LOL), he can cheer me up, just watching him.
I've heard the name, Shoot Ogawa, but never have seen anything he does. I'll have to see if that one is available for trade.

I just found the revelation videos a bit dull. I had to force myself to sit through them. I agree there are a some decent revelations there, but I don't really need 100's of revelations. They all start to blur together after a while.
If you're interested in videos by Shoot, he also is on Cultural eXchange. Some of his stuff is a bit difficult, but Ninja Rings is really a magical looking, well-constructed, linking ring routine if you are willing to put in the time.

Why did you rate green magic so low? I was under the impresion that he was one of the best card men of our day.

Good to here.
