It's nearly 3am in the morning the day after this conference as I write this review. That's because
I've just gotten to my room after staying up all night to hang out with some of magics brightest
stars. The value I've gotten out of this conference is tough to beat. Besides mingling with some of
my heros, other highlights included the following.
Gazzo had the audience dying from
laughter during his performance.
Losander had our jaws on the floor when he reminded us
what it felt like to see magic for the first time.
Dan Harlan showed us how even the
classics can be improved (sometimes the methods and sometimes the presentations)
Chad Long
featured some great comedic gags and his magic was practical and fun to watch.
Diamond Jim,
Daniel Garcia, Brent Braun, and all of the other acts also provided amazing moments, advice, and
face time.
To be honest, if you missed this event you missed out! If the Maxx
conference becomes on-going thing, don't hesitate. If the conference comes to my town I'll be back.
