Daryl Howard Magic

Just had a great time at this month's meeting of the Dallas Magic Club . In an effort to make the meetings as educational and fun as possible, we scheduled our own Dr. Mike Smith and Geoff "Doc" Grimes to present a mini-lecture on the works of magician, philosopher, teacher, and author Robert E. Neale, whose writings, though virtually unknown to most magicians, have been a major influence on some of the greatest performers in the business. That's me on the far left at Vernon's Pub after the meeting, enjoying drinks and good conversation with friends from left to right after me, Cole Cyres, Mike Squires, Diamond Jim Tyler, Dal Sanders, Cinde Sanders, and Ian Richards, some of the top magicians in the Dallas area.

Had a fantastic time performing my walk-around magic at this year's ADD Radio Show Christmas In July party at The Expo Bar in Dallas. This was my third year in a row to perform for this charity event, and the party (and my magic) just keep getting better and better! A special thanks goes out to ADD Radio DJ Robi Nickolai for putting on this party. Looking forward to doing it all again next year!

Just had the time of my life entertaining guests at a Mother's Day celebration magic show at Brookdale Retirement Center in Fort Worth. That's me presenting a complimentary bottle of champagne to Sharon, our guest of honor, produced out of thin air from my Magic Gift Box.

This has been an awesome week for magic in Dallas! The Dallas Magic Club just hosted its annual officer installation banquet and magic show at Brookhaven Country Club, and after being a member of the Club for over eighteen years, I have finally been elected as the Club's new Vice-President! This is a huge responsibility for me, since I will serve as the Club's program director, being in charge of the content of the monthly meetings, among many other duties. Pictured are the new officers from left to right, President Joey Byers, Vice-President Daryl Howard, International Brotherhood of Magicians President Oscar Munoz who made a special trip to Dallas to swear us in, Treasurer and Wylie Mayor Eric Hogue, and Secretary Dr. Mike Blum. Afterward, we enjoyed a hilarious fun-filled magic show by Oscar Muñoz , winner of the prestigious IBM Gold Cups award. I was also able to attend a lecture by Oscar before the banquet, and learned some really cool coin magic, as well as some e...

W. . .O . . .O . . .O . . .W!! I have just had the most magical weekend ever! First, I was invited to perform my magic at a farewell party for one of my own mentors, Dr. Lawrence Hass, associate dean of the McBride Magic School in Vegas, who is moving out of the Dallas area to Tennessee. (That's him in the first photo opening the show with some of his favorite rope magic.) As if that wasn't an honor enough, I got to share the stage with another of my mentors, Eugene Burger, considered as one of the top ten best magicians in the WORLD, who closed the show with his signature piece, the famous Gypsy Thread, a true masterpiece of magic. The next day, Eugene hosted a lecture on the subject of improving our performance of magic, and I had the privilege of attending and helping out on stage. A truly awesome, magical weekend!

Had a great time at this year's PartyFest Trade Show in Dallas . A special thanks to Dal and Cinde Sanders for the invitation. And, of course, I have to thank expert caricature artist Ben Vincent for his super sketch of me. I've never looked so good!

I just saw the Dallas Film Festival's screening of the movie "Dealt", a documentary about Richard Turner, one of the top sleight-of-hand artists in the world. The movie was awesome, but even more awesome was a surprise visit by Richard Turner himself! That's me in the photo with Richard. I was invited to entertain moviegoers with my strolling magic before the show. Now, I can say that I've opened for Richard Turner! What an event!
