Updates

Its been a while... and well I've not blogged much for a good reason. I've been pretty busy. This post will cover a few topics and I'll update as much as I can. First, my Morgan dollars from Roy Keuppers have arrived. Seriously, the picture does not do justice to the beauty of the coins. 5 coins, each dated 1895 are now in my possession. With the appreciating rates of Silver and Gold, these coins will be worth a few times more than they cost now, approx 120 per piece today, in a few years. So that's it for the coins...

I've had a great experience with the family show circuit. I was booked to run 3 shows at a recent carnival and the clients set up a mini theatre and sold tickets for the show. There was such an overwhelming response that they immediately booked me for one Extra show on the very day. Best part, I was paid immediately! In the book "secrets of a millionaire magician", it states, stick to the customers you add value to and whom in return add value to yours! This client is one of those. THANK YOU for the opportunity. The 28th was a good day, with 4 afternoon shows, I had one more alongside 2 Japanese mimes that same evening in conjunction with the CLAP singapore event. I guess it was really my lucky day that day. The Event producer booked me right after the show for another event, which was yesterday (110611).


Was in Mumbai Last weekend for the Khul Jaa Sim Sim International Magic Convention. Khul Jaa Sim Sim, apparently are the magic words Ali Baba used to open the cave with treasures. My three days there were packed to the brim with interviews with Air India Magazine, Indian Express, meetings with other magicians and I had the chance to meet India's Greatest Magician, K. Lal!

 86 years old and diagnosed with brain tumour, K.Lal chooses not to seek treatment. An operation would prevent him from performing on stage and the man wants to perform till his last breath. Talk about passion.

 Masks in Colombo Airport. Srilankan culture is one that I find to be very unique and colourful. Someday, I plan to use a Srilankan mask in my shows...

 Working on the lecture in Coffee Bean in Colombo. With 6 hours between flights, I just had to work.
