Pros - the ditching of the salt pour gimmick was brilliant. Other uses for Sneaker Juice was nice.
The lazy rope routine has merit too.
Cons - unfunny jokes, forced humor, cheap
shots at other magicians that came across petty and mean spirited (it's the holidays can we have
goodwill and cheerfulness?) Lots of segments dragged on way too long (Steve skit for starters).
Other - Steve saying in the lecture about the importance of interacting with
customers/people yet when I emailed him about something I got a very short somewhat unprofessional
reply back. I guess he was having a bad day and probably not a reflection of his true self?
All that being said I think there are better lectures out there but to be fair there are worse
ones too. If you are on the fence I'd maybe steer clear of this lecture. If you are looking for
something that is not your typical lecture than this lecture might be for you.
