Hi all, I read that Eric Evans' destroys the envelope/bill without using fire or a shredder in his BIL routine. Can anyone tell me if he published this and where I could find it? Searches have turned no results. Thanks!

Eric Evans has damaged his knee and has a Go Fund Me page for this.
https://www.gofundme.com/ng940k According to his promo video on YouTube, you can reach him at iconicmagic@gmail.com If I had to guess, being a street performer he just tears the envelope up, and it is gone. |

Thanks, Bill. Sorry to hear about Eric's knee injury. I'll visit his site.
He actually uses some kind of liquid to destroy the bill, thereby ensuring it is destroyed/gone before it appears in the lemon. I just can't find where he published it. |

Hi Christopher, the routine is published in my first lecture notes I believe, The Secret Art of Crowds and Power. I sold many copies over the years, surely someone has a copy to sell but I don't. I'm a street performer after all, unorganized as all get out.

Hi Eric,
I don't know how I missed this post from you. I will search for your notes. Thank you for the information and my apologies for not seeing this and wishing you a speedy knee recovery! |

Hi Bill! I couldn't find the lecture notes at all. I would love to get my hands on them.

As Eric Evans posted, the lecture notes are long out of print, they turned into a book written by him and Nowlin Craver, in two parts. Read a review on the book, but nothing specific as to if there are any tricks given in detail, but only hinted at it. Eric hinted in his posts, there were other lecture notes that he produced as well.
Here is a review of the hard bound book. http://weeklymagicfailure.blogspot.com/2......gic.html Here is where you can buy the book. You might contact Eric Evens and pin him down that his Bill in Lemon is explained in detail in the book. http://www.leeasher.com/store/books/secret_art_magic.html This book takes the famous book, the art of war, and compares how performing magic and war are similar processes. Now I am only guessing, but there should examples in the book and hopefully one of those examples is the Bill in Lemon. This is what you have to find out. I can't do any more for you, I got Eric Evans to post a response, found the book for you. Now the ball is in your court to follow through. If you only want the original lecture notes, well that is like looking for a needle in a hay stack. Post a request in the Let's Make a Deal section of the Café, and see if anything is offered. |

Thank you very much, Bill. I've purchased several out of print items by hunting around online, but yes, these particular notes have escaped my searches. If indeed as you say, "the lecture notes... turned into a book" then the search is over but I will check with Eric Evans. Thanks!

Hi Bill, Eric Evans confirmed the trick is in the lecture notes, but is not in the book.
