60th Birthday Party

By -
Well, I never thought I'd see the day, but that's me at Times Ten Wine Cellars in Dallas performing my close-up magic show at my own 60th birthday party! That's right, I've hit the big SIX OHHH, and I'm just getting warmed up! I was joined by my friends and family who have helped me produce my magic show: Wes & Beth Howard, who manage my website and online presence, son Kenneth, who was my stand-in photographer for the evening, Son-in-law Justin and daughter Sheena, employee Jason and his girlfriend, and, finally, Philippe and Patricia Semprez, the filmmakers who helped me produce the videos for my website. The biggest surprise of the evening was the rabbit-in-the-hat birthday cake, provided by my party planner, Cinde Sanders with Amazing Attractions. Thanks to everybody for making this my most memorable birthday party so far!

Independent Electrical Contractor's Association Christmas Party

It was a huge party! I had a great time at The Wyndham Hotel in Dallas performing my strolling magic show for members of the Independent Electrical Contractor's Association for their sixtieth anniversary Christmas party. Yes, they have been in business for SIXTY years, educating apprentice electricians to work in the electrical industry. This was my second time to be invited to perform at one of their Christmas parties. A special thanks goes out to Marsha Hughes, Assistant Deputy Director of the school, to my right in the four-person photo, for hiring me to entertain at the party, and for introducing me to the talent and event coordinator of the hotel! This is the second hotel in a row this year that now has me on their list of preferred entertainers! Can you spot me sharing my magic with guests in the large group shot? That's me, right next to Waldo.

Penn & Teller Performance

For once, I actually got to be a part of the audience of a magic show, instead of the guy on stage. Penn & Teller, two of my all-time favorite magicians in the whole world, performed their fantastic stage magic show at The Winstar World Casino and Hotel in Oklahoma. They absolutely blew me away with their magic, and I got to meet Penn Jillette in person for the first time! Of course, THAT photo didn't turn out, thanks to a stranger that didn't know how to push a button on a camera. But I have some great memories of the event, and the Winstar Hotel went out of their way to make my stay an enjoyable one. I will definitely be going back to attend more shows there.
