Magic Tricks

This is an interesting collection of tricks from one of the best magicians you've never heard of. Howard has a unique and laid-back style of performing, and the effects involved range from self working to medium difficulty in the sleight-of-hand department. Mystical 13, which was only performed, is a the best trick of the set, and I wish they had included the explanation on the DVD! The other explanations are fairly thorough, but I think they could have been a little more detailed and less rushed. I guess that's just Howard's style, however. Not a bad DVD, but not great either. Oh, and one more thing. Howard performs for an audience of other magicians, which kind of takes away from the whole experience. It's kind of awkward to watch the magicians act as though they are impressed, even though they clearly know how everything was done and are basically faking it. A lay audience is much better in getting you excited about learning the tricks.
