GREAT JOB TOM!!!
Many thanks from the Tri-Cities Magicians' Society.


After some magic on Mother Natures' part, snow in the middle of April, the lecture began slightly after 7:00PM. Tom discussed his philosophy on magic, patter, how to fit a trick to a message and vice-versa. He started with three tricks you can carry with you any where, two bands link & unlink, ring & chain, & bill penetration. Throughout the evening Tom would persent an effect and discuss multiple patter options and how to make a trick your own. He discussed how he used magic in his ministry to help convey a message to the younger congregation, performing at least one trick per week. Tom also presented several ideas that he is currently working on and discussed how 'magic' could be found in many sources, including childrens books, craft books, etc. He discussed how many of these ideas can be adapted to convey a magical effect and message. Tom performed and explained his version of several classic effects, ring and rope to mention one. Tom concluded with his killer version of Torn & Restored Newspaper. The lecture lasted approximately two hours with a small break and everyone enjoyed it greatly. TCMS would like to thank Tom for a wonderful lecture and experience.
