Since February is the month of Valentines Day we had a Stuck on You meeting. Anything that sticks is what you perform, Velcro, magnets, double sided tape, sticky notes, rubber cement, glue, etc. As a performer you could perform or reveal the method of the magic. Jeff Jenson suggested using magnets on the Twentieth Century Silk trick. Tape can also be used to accomplish a double lift.
Gene Gordon performed Dave Neighbors coins across to his pocket one at a time. He did a nice card trick where the spectator could lie, tell the truth or do both. The card was found by spelling. Next he did a nice card to impossible location.
Glenn Proulx performed the Appearing Car by Hyde Ren. Demonstrated how he rewired a flameless candle to turn on with a PK ring, made three different color ropes link, changed a spoon into a fork and finally did Pavel’s Flash Rope Restoration.
Matt Brandt made 3 coins appear and disappear. Then he had a sticky note signed and wrapped around a bill. He shoved a pencil through it and the hole was only in the sticky note and not the bill!
Dan Rodriguez suggested a way to use car door magnets to help your marketing and also suggested if your logo was painted on the car to use door magnet placard’s to cover your logo to be in compliance with your local HOA. Especially, if you park your car in the driveway. Another nice thing would be to make a refrigerator magnet of the birthday child as a give away.
Marty Jewell, the Queen of Puns in our club did a nice card stab with a balloon! She had a stick in her hair, please stick around (because most sticks are round and you wave it in a circle!) stick to your routine, she had tape stuck to a deck for her tape deck, and make sure you stick-it-to-em.
New member Vespa, performed Ron Frost’s trick from the Wax museum using magicians wax. He had a box to trap daemons. Cards were selected from a tarot deck and by using a Devil puppet the Evil Eye found the spectators card miniature in size!
Ralph MacIntosh did a nice tossed out deck prediction with the help of some bricks. It was a trick by Cody Fisher, $100 Bill Trick.
Steve Spangler talked about how magnets are used in vending machines to make sure bills are real. How to use a neodymium magnet to check a bill, how Malt-O-Meal and Wonder Bread are fortified with iron. It was a magnetic night of magic that held our attention!
