My husband bribed this guy while I was shopping to drag me out into the show to embarrass me, and that he did, lol. To use this video in a commercial player or in broadcasts, please email licensing@storyful.com”
I was trained by Gazzo, and have benefited from what he taught me for over 13 years or so...its not just his take on the cups, its how he draws a crowd. A stellar performer and all round good bloke. Cantankerous at times, and doesnt suffer fools gladly, which is as it should be. To see this video and hear the verbiage, tight, concise, and on point is amazing. He will be in Adelaide this fringe festival and no doubt there will be time to catch up with him. Thanks for putting this video online...seeing him live is wonderful, seeing it on video, it misses the energy that can be had seeing him live...so great though...Many thanks
A lot of ignorant people in that crowd, even the little kid didn't show the respect this guy really deserves. Really ungrateful job. Huge respect for him willing to do this and having to deal with people like that. Not all people of course, but just too many.
William Kimbler Yes, he looks like a great guy, I hope people were more rewarding than this crowd though, they seemed so reluctant to give him some money. I don't understand, they watched him for 30 minutes, and then they just walk off like he's only there for their amusement, that's impudent.
JudyBats, I don't know if you've figured it out yet, but "this guy" is called Gazzo. He has a reputation as being one of the best street performers in the world and it's a well deserved one. It's nice to see something more recent from him. It may not have been his best performance, but it's always a pleasure to watch the master at work. :) Thanks for posting it. Looks like you had fun up there. ("If I went to America..." - he used to live there. Haha.)
I love Gazzo! I was a fan before I met him, and now that I've known him for several years I'm even a bigger fan. Really nice down to earth guy. Brilliant performer!
we are in front of a routine of almost 30 minutes...and its a funny routine to. this man is one of the greates around the world. the quality of his technique is supreme because of the enviroment were he is acting and performing the magic. i recomend to all of those who want to learn magic to keep watchin this man...and i agree with that guy about the french drop (see coments)
I've seen this a dozen times, and this is the first time I've read the description. I was wondering why you were laughing so hard, lol. Thanks for posting :-)
I love how when he screwed up, (ball fell out of the cup.) he just made a joke out of it and kept going. True showman. Love you gazzo, though I would prefer a cleaner patter :/
This guy deserves to be in his own club or theater performing for a large crowd and making good money. People come watch the show and hardly leave any tip
Performing other people's magic is not theft; he has met and performed for Dai Vernon personally, and Vernon published his routine for the express purpose of allowing other magicians to perform it,
LOL what routine you talking about young guy xD ??? you think cups and balls are gazzo's ? or you think that this routine was published by vernon ? In all vernon books there is only versions of vernon ( originals )
i saw him put the oranges... but where the melon?... it sad seeing him asking for money people should be greatful for such a show nd give him money by himself
I think they really wanted to because they even admited that he does the trick better than them, but they ware'nt fooled and the rules are if he could do a trick that they didn't know he would go to Vegas, hope that cleared your mind a little :)
Sure I would love to see them collab but the show have its rules and technically he didn't fool them, but I gotta admit that Gazzo makes the acts more funnier and brilliant :)
To be fair, Gazzo's cups and balls are famous enough in magic circles that it would be impossible for him to fool 'em. Any magician worth his wand already knows how it's done. In fact, Gazzo's got a better version of this... After the balls've gone, he reveals lemons under the cups. Then out come the oranges. Then he sets his hat on the table, talks to the audience for a bit, and when he lifts the hat... a goddamn honeydew melon drops out of it.
It's really sad to see people donate a stingy nickel or two after a half hour of top notch entertainment, as if Gazzo's not even worth minimum wage. How pathetically shameful. I'd be embarrassed to donate any less than my own hourly wage.
Think it through. Is it more likely that (as someone who's clearly familiar with Gazzo) I missed that little nugget, or that since posting this, judybats changed the title to reflect new information some time over the year since I posted that comment Try not to be so snarky - when you act like that prematurely it makes you look petty and unintelligent... which as someone into magic I expect you're actually not. Observation, quick thought, wit, entertainment and all that. Think on, mucker.

James Hessler I’m jealous, love Gazzo ❤️🎩
He is the best out there.
love the one liners and quips at the passersby
This was actually very nice. The guy deserves best luck. Also deserved every cent you and others gave him. Great upload.
This man is the greatest performer of street magic in the world.
Absolutely the best in the business! And a very nice and hard working entertainer. Gazzo is a survivor of a stroke and you would never know it .
Saw this guy so many times in Boston 20+ years ago. It was fun remembering all the funny jokes.
this guy is HILARIOUS - i can't even handle it!
A lot of ignorant people in that crowd, even the little kid didn't show the respect this guy really deserves.
Really ungrateful job.
Huge respect for him willing to do this and having to deal with people like that.
Not all people of course, but just too many.
+DaZeD Merlin I remember meeting Gazzo at the magic Castle in Hollywood; one of the nicest people ever.
William Kimbler Yes, he looks like a great guy, I hope people were more rewarding than this crowd though, they seemed so reluctant to give him some money.

+William Kimbler I bet him in San Fran, and he was a total ass.
+Chad M Gazzo, in general, is a very nice guy. He's even said himself, being a jerk is part of his character as a magician.
I've met Gazzo while he did his lecture for Murphys Magic. Nicest guy ever but his street persona is an asshole and it's hilarious.
What the hell!?😳 that trick and the humor is hilarious
Saw this guy in Key West probably around 2012. Still remains one of the craziest performances I've ever seen!
'i sold the pope a double bed' how did they not laugh at that??
I was laughing my ass off the whole time, especially at the squeky bit xD He belongs on his own scene, thats for sure.

Looks like you had fun up there.
("If I went to America..." - he used to live there. Haha.)
Haven't laughed so much for a long time!! Brilliant.
I love Gazzo! I was a fan before I met him, and now that I've known him for several years I'm even a bigger fan. Really nice down to earth guy. Brilliant performer!
You and Pop Haydn are my favorite performers.
I saw Gazzo perform at Fells Point in Baltimore today, he was amazing.
Thanks for uploading Judy. I love Gazzo.
That guys laugh is so magical
''So slow Ray Charles could see it'' that one had me dying! :D
Thanks for sharing.
LOL. Best comedy magic I have seen in a long time.
"-Three of clubs.
-It was not the three of clubs."
Classic Gazzo.
Brilliant and very funny!
If he did that show in my home town he would walk away loaded. Gazzo come to the east coast of Canada during Buskers week in June you will love it.
I' believe i've seen this guy perform at the streets downtown sweden,Uppsala.. pretty sick !!! hes hilarious!
Wipe full gazzo performance! Lucky!! Never seen him but this is proof he is the best street magician alive, and this is clearly not his best audience.
we are in front of a routine of almost 30 minutes...and its a funny routine to. this man is one of the greates around the world. the quality of his technique is supreme because of the enviroment were he is acting and performing the magic. i recomend to all of those who want to learn magic to keep watchin this man...and i agree with that guy about the french drop (see coments)
He is one, if not the greatest on the streets with magic, performance, nouce, entertainment, and balls...
This man is genius...a bloody genius!
Thats Entertainment
Hilarious...thanks for uploading...
He’s very good any funny magician I love his performances
I've seen this a dozen times, and this is the first time I've read the description. I was wondering why you were laughing so hard, lol. Thanks for posting :-)
Dude you deserve so much more then tips
haha love how people think he screwed up...he does this on purpose to piss off magicians I think. hahahaha. He does it every show.
I love how when he screwed up, (ball fell out of the cup.) he just made a joke out of it and kept going. True showman. Love you gazzo, though I would prefer a cleaner patter :/
Don´t go it´s not a war. haha best line^^
i got tears in my eye, it was very funny :)
glad i clicked on this video! wasnt expecting to laugh my ass off :D
The ending was pretty sad. Nobody was rushing to give him money.
wonderful
Amazing
How did I get on this site? I don't really know, but you made me laugh, so it's a great place to find. Thanks Gazzo...
great top change move at 4:47secs!!!
9:12 Ooooh that's rude dude lmao
Yes he was. I watched him in Covent Garden once very funny.
Gazzo started this and then sold his tricks, and some of the people who bought the "tricks" stole the whole character
Gazzo ROCKS
The religion joke got me!
Nice Job Loved the money from the kid bit.
The guy who came in on 16:08 looks like the king of thailand.
This guy deserves to be in his own club or theater performing for a large crowd and making good money. People come watch the show and hardly leave any tip
I 100 % agree
Performing other people's magic is not theft; he has met and performed for Dai Vernon personally, and Vernon published his routine for the express purpose of allowing other magicians to perform it,
LOL what routine you talking about young guy xD ??? you think cups and balls are gazzo's ? or you think that this routine was published by vernon ? In all vernon books there is only versions of vernon ( originals )
The great Gazzo!
He's amazing :D I wanna meet him :D
Shout-out to any Canadians that got the joke about drinking Canada dry!!
Good street show, but I did feel kind of bad at the end where he was asking for money. It should be implied. But, as the french say, "RUN AWAY!!"
I love this guy =D
"Watch this, virgin"
good point maybe this was before he made that routine
Cool story.
*drops 4th ball* "OH SHIT"
nice show
"Check your wallets, the Italians are here"
i saw him put the oranges... but where the melon?... it sad seeing him asking for money people should be greatful for such a show nd give him money by himself
Shubham Rawat it varies depending on if he's able to get a melon. I prefer the show with the melon though.
It usnt sad, he does that at every end of show. All street performers do ffs.
Yeah it sure helped him make it big!:)
Seasoned pro !
I actually met this guy in Las Vegas
he ate it
haha that really was a good laugh
Hey, thats Gazzo! You should put his name in the title of the video.
18:03 did he just say "step back, you are making it hard" ?
You answered in the same sentence
Where's the melon in the hat? :)
Sometimes he does a smaller version for cheaper crowds i.e this one!
Gazzo was on penn and teller fool us
Hahahahaha my fault I picked you
Funny thing the French won the only battle that mattered- The Battle of Hastings
12m0s good style girl ! :) lol
0) Michael Vincient
haven't you played Dragon age? :D
Wot??
Yeah the title says gazzo i think they know.
The real magic is at 12:59 behind his shoulder
Gazzo earns millions of dollars!
He speaks italian?
6:35 I'm Italian but i found his jokes very funny anyway :)
umm i guess we can say youre a stallion
get it? nvm
this guy uses so many pinky breaks and double lifts
Well he is a magician you fucking moron. Get fucked, idiot.
Nice fail at 24:29 :)
Gazzo, street Diety !!!
Cool Mercury card fold
This guy is so rude. He would get more money and bigger crowd if he was nice and didnt spend majority of the show talking crap
Cool in Christ allways chubby billpage illusionist magician in fun
Ps thanks to magician Art Bell to search for his videos even for the cups and balls
Penn and Teller should have picked him for las vegas
I think they really wanted to because they even admited that he does the trick better than them, but they ware'nt fooled and the rules are if he could do a trick that they didn't know he would go to Vegas, hope that cleared your mind a little :)
+alexander sladonja I think they still could of and should of brought him with them as a friend, not as a winner.
Sure I would love to see them collab but the show have its rules and technically he didn't fool them, but I gotta admit that Gazzo makes the acts more funnier and brilliant :)

lol he fucked up
Patrick Moreira no.... you have no idea who Gazzo is if you think he messed up.
the guy who recorded this has a weird laugh..
Not his best performance
