Aloha kaua from England and mahalo nui loa for showing your take on Gazzo's routine.
A couple of humble comments:
I'm not sure the "space helmet" gag and some of Gazzo's sarcasm work so well with your lively character. I'd love to see your take on the cups with a bigger departure from Gazzo's patter.
That said, nice handling.
I prefer some elements of yours to Gazzo's and I think you could make it better still if you made it more your own.
A pal of mine who is a world famous photographer here in Wichita, KS, has a condo in Maui, and he and his wife love to go to your establishment when they're there. Great show! I've attached a video of my own street cups and ball bearings in case you'd like to see it.
Gary Animal made those cups he and gazzo and are in the works of producing more. you can get a great set from ringsandthingsII. .stevens magic has couple batches left that are the right weight size for oranges. if money is an issue, penguinmagic has a set of inexpensive cups for the size. and gazzo gave the thumbs up on it. wellmadegood price. good luck on your search!remember, gazzo said dont skimp out on the quality of your props because they will become the tools of your livelihood.
Congrats, People need to realize it's not just getting the dvd's and books but it takes having the balls to step up after working your butt off to do the cups and balls or any type of public display. A great copy of a great Magician.
Look, fuckheads... Gazzo gave permission to use his patter and routine, exactly 10 years ago (at least). Without requiring that one buy his books or DVDs. The only restriction he had on it was to not do it where his daily pitch is.
a well practised routine,well handled with the members of the audience ,if there was any thing bad to say it would be the production of the melon slow it down but i enjoyed it and it up there with gazzo
The melon load was just fine. The only reason you saw anything at all is because the camera is set up at the side angle instead of straight on with the audience. On top of that it's on video, and you know exactly what to look for, even then you can barely see anything. A layperson isn't going to be able to catch it.
The whole routine was not entirely Gazzo's. Also do you realize he has already released the entire routine to the magic fraternity? Both in his book and on film, patter and all. Lastly the title of the video was titled so because of my timing and my characteristics that I put into the routine. And if you watched the entire video, you would see I gave credit where credit is due. which is more than what I can say for other practioners that are posting nowadays.
He hasn't released his routine "the magic fraternity". He's offered it for sale. Judging from your response and the knock-off pouch, I'd wager that you haven't reimbursed him.
I didn't see the ending credits my first viewing, but my point remains the same.
When someone says they released something to the magic fratenity any one with half a brain realises that it means they are selling it. It is a phrase that gets used all the time, so don't bother arguing semantics. Considering he knows the routine and it's structure I'd be willing to wager that he did in fact purchase the dvd.
Thank you for replying to canadasphere's ignorant comments.
I have bought both DVD and book. Gazzo is an idol of mine, and i am not about to rip him off. All my props are not knock offs and highly acclaimed by Gazzo. I am a professional and have no time for Canadasphere's ignorance.
Firstly, the book was released in 1980. The DVD in '05 or '06. Anything that is in print is available and useable by the public. Secondly, the pouch was fabricated by Frank Starnick, a well-known and respected magic manufacturer. The Cups were from Gary Animal of the UK who, btw, makes the same cups for Gazzo. I invested a lot of money, time, and effort, not to mention countless hours of practice and performance into this routine. Thanks, but i know what i'm doing.

do you have permissions to do gazzo's routine? you shouldn't really call it "my cups and balls routine"...
