Each month David Neubauer provides an update on all the magic being performed in Las Vegas, Nevada, which has more magic than anywhere else in the world. Not only does all that magic beckon, but so do the low air fares, and prices for buffets and lodging. No wonder it is such a big destination for so many magicians, magic conventions, and other magic activities. Thanks, David, for this monthly update.
