There's 3 videos there and here's the link to the new one.

Got asked to do a live shot for the local ABC affiliate here in Albuquerque. Went well. I did it on about 3 minutes notice.

Great crowd and thanks to 7 for the promo!

Enjoy!

The only Problem I had with the video was the METS Jersey....

Robert, congrats, and all looked well to me except one thing... A lay person MAY catch this, but I don't know.. (I did)

You put the card on the top of the deck, and then said you were going to find your card.. I would recomend putting into the middle, and controling it to the top.. Then do the sneaky stuff.. I understand its more conventional to do it your way, so that you don't have to reposition the deck, but just something to keep in mind...

Great job,
-Vinnie

Congratulations!

The floating card looked awesome. I am sure channel 7 loved that teaser.

I remember watching Gazzo years ago up in Canada. I'm just wondering who came first, Gazzo or Robert Bloor? It seems Robert is a direct copy cat of Gazzo, same show, same lines, same facial expressions. Or maybe Gazzo is a carbon copy of you, Robert Bloor. I'm confused because you both do the same show. Soooo who is copying who here? Enlighten me.

Gia,

Welcome back to the conversation. I see you're 12 posts into your magic career. Welcome! We're glad you're here.

As you asked for and I shall now do, it's time for you to be enlightened...

I am a ripe-old 27 years young. Still very much a grasshopper I guess. But you seem to be all over me like I'm taking credit for making these tricks up. I never have said they're mine.

And frankly, (and this has been gone over before ad nuaseum), a card to mouth trick, is not Gazzo's. Does he do it? Sure. Do hundreds of other magicians? Yep.

The card on stick, is also not Mr. Gazzo's. Ask Danny Hustle about that. The "floating" card on stick has been documented in print from years before it was ever put on a Gazzo video.

As for Gazzo himself, out of respect, please quit mentioning my name in the same sentance as his. It's insulting to Gazzo.

Piz, thanks for the words. Every bit of media coverage helps.

Vinnie, I agree and typically will be a bit more tricky with it. But as Joe told me before we went on, "We've got 30 seconds tops" which in broadcast lingo means, "We've got about 10 seconds now wrap it up!"

I did another bump this morning with Joe at the Balloon Fiesta. Did a simple invsible deck. (Might post it but need to get permission from Gia first to be sure I'm not copying anyone).

Thanks everybody! I appreciate it!

Robert

Magic should be pretty. This was and the floating card was downright beautiful on camera! Excellent job, Robert!

It's from all my years in TV. When something was dead on, it was called "pretty."
