@Blackpool By Ben Williams
Well, what a weekend! I’m sure you all were up in Blackpool this weekend, if not, why not?!?!? (I know, you just spent the weekend wishing you were there didn’t you?) I had great fun going around showing everyone my new effect Squished check it out here. It has had great responses from everyone which I am very thankful for.
Anyways there were loads of great things to see and some great performances to boot. This year actually saw the turn out of some of the biggest names in magic, including as I’m sure you know… David Blaine, but more on that later!
Personal highlights of the weekend for me were of course, the lack of sleep, the empty wallet and amazement when it was revealed that my voice had vanished! Only joking, for me it had to be seeing DB constantly interrupting Danny Garcia’s lecture, very funny! Danny was performing and his phone rings and he says, “oh it’s David Blaine”, everyone is obviously thinking this is a joke but it turns out DB is at the back of the lecture room with phone in hand slating Danny!! As the lecture went on he interrupted Danny again with a pork sandwich and a shot of tequila! Not too kind but very funny!!!
Also, meeting with the mind that is Daniel Madison with his highly annoying, extremely clever effect Advocate. Daniel you are a b******!! Anyways to sum up the effect he was performing…, a spectator thinks of any card and then takes their own deck and they shuffle it, the deck is then spread on the table and one card has a different back design, it is the spectator’s thought of card. Any card, with any deck, I know what you are thinking, how????? Tell me about it!
Not to mention Twist by Titanas, super cool, visual feast of strange! This is all kind of hush hush at the moment so more on that later!
But my real highlight was being asked to join David Blaine and Doug McKenzie, with Charlie Fry and Titanas to show him some magic in a private ‘session’. This has to be one of the most surreal but cool things to happen to me ever! I kept thinking ‘I am showing David Blaine magic?’ how did this happen!??! But once again should you be reading this DB thanks for taking the time to do this and to see my magic.
