The hard working staff of The Linking Ring Journal sends wishes for a Happy and Prosperous New Year, 2009. The cover story this month gives us all a look at one of our favorite personalities in the business of magic. The British Ring - I.B.M. Ring 25 - is the largest individual group in the International Brotherhood of Magicians, with over 1200 members. This year's president is Trevor Lewis, the ingenious children's magician and stand-up performer whose magic for all ages has taken him around the world. (read more) |
We have two new and important developments surrounding the International Brotherhood of Magicians (I.B.M.) annual magic convention for June 30th to July 4th, 2009, in Nashville, Tennessee at Gaylord Opryland Resort and Convention Center. Convention Chairman, Terry Richison, has decided to extend for one extra month the registration fee that was suppose to end on December 31, 2008. The price freeze means that the $210 dollar registration is good until the end of January 2009, saving you $40. (read more) | |
Happy New Year! January in the Windy City is usually a time of much snow and more cold. Although this is never guaranteed. Recently within one week, the weather in Chicago ranged from below zero to 60 degrees above zero. The old saying used to be, "If you don't like Chicago's weather, wait a minute and it will change." The revised saying should be, "If you don't like Chicago's season, wait a minute and it will change." In any event, the magic scene seems to slow down a bit but there is still some activity throughout the area. Some of the news has to do with a couple of event in the near future. I'm mentioning them now so that you can mark your calendars. (read more) |
Howdy friends. Happy New Year! The celebrations of the season are officially over and we are nearly a week into the New Year...the last one with two zeroes in the middle for this millennium. That means we won't see consecutive double zeroes for nearly another thousand years. Kinda makes ya feel small, eh? Or not...whatever. Houston area magicians celebrated the end of 2008...or was it the beginning of 2009? Well, 50-60 people showed up to enjoy some food, beverages, conversations and fellowship last Saturday night, January 3rd. (Read More...) | |

How would you like to devastate street urchins in the manner of David Blaine? There is a saying, "Build a better mouse trap and the world will build a path to your door". Walt Disney took it one step further: He built a better mouse! Tim Trono didn't invent the principal or even the idea for the blister gadget. He did create a better instrument to elicit acclaim from audiences. Want a device applauded by Daryl and Paul Harris? Contact Tim Trono at Murphy's Magic Supplies. (read more) |

It is that time of the year when we take a look at the past twelve months and dream about the future. There have been a great many really 'magical' things on the internet in 2008. First and foremost, the I.B.M Web Portal site, where you are reading this right now. It came together and has grown into something really special. There are a lot of people that you can thank when you happen to run into them. Kirk DeWeese and his Electronic Wizards at Micro.com did a great job of getting all the behind the scenes heavy lifting done to put this together and kept it working. Great job guys! (read more) | |

One of David Copperfield's assistants learned that the hard way on Wednesday when he got caught in an industrial fan used in Copperfield's Las Vegas stage show. During an illusion where David attempts to walk through the rotating blades of a 12-foot high industrial fan, the fan and its platform were being rotated by one of David's illusion technicians, a rep for the show told Usmagazine.com. "Just prior to David himself walking through the fan, [the assistant] was accidentally pulled into the vortex of the moving fan blades, causing injury to his arm and face. "The assistant, named Brandon (his last name is being withheld for his privacy), required extensive surgery to his arm and face, said the rep. (read more) | |
It is with great pain within the entire Italian magic world that I am sad to announce the loss of a friend and great magician Vanni Bossi. He may be gone, but his creative ideas, his original and wonderful magic, and especially his passion will continue to live with us now and into the future. He had an operation to the throat and for the last two months he has had poor health. (Graphic from Magic Christian) (read more) |
