James Browns Pot of Jam effect is a fantastic close-up opener and totally takes people by surprise.

Craig Petty's flipstick routine that can be found in his chop DVD (Alllllways mentioned on WPR) is a fantastic little routine that you could build upon. Everwhere/one has a pen on them so once you nail it (very simple) you will always be prepared. If you had two then you could do some nice placement work on spectator too which strengthens this further.

Could you please tell me where can I find James Browns trick? Thanks in advance.

Bending a coin, c**t*r t**r, or hypnosis display. I often wonder about using sponge balls as an opener for magic because it is so strong. Anyone compared their overall reactions to their magic when doing sponge balls first as opposed to last?

Sponge balls for women and kids.
Invisible deck for men.

For people who are reluctant, thumb writer.

I alternate between Ring leader and fire wallet to grab a note for pen thur bill or ignition.

I agree with Holey Moley and couple it with Doc Easons All screwed up for a fun hardware set... simples...
