This vid was a very helpful update Doug, thank you.
You are my go-to magician if I want to impress people at school. Your quite great for teaching magic for sure.
Appreciate that positivity! Thanks!
Wow if only I had this sort of a teacher 50 years ago when I was a kid. Thank you for all your doing for the next generation of future magicians.
Awesome stuff doug. Also love the idea as the balls as giveaways. O'h and love your over the shoulder teaching! That is so great to get the proper view to learn easier.
Thanks for the feedback Vin!
Thanks, Doug! I love your upbeat patter in all your videos. I've just picked up some sponges and found this video you foresaw I could use! I picked up a few finesse moves to these basics that really add the polish I needed.
Thanks Doug, always like you explanation of the sponge balls
Thanks Tim. As I upgrade these basic lessons for the new site, I figured some students in the interwebs might find useful info
Thanks Doug for some great tips from someone who's had years of learning. The joy you gave those kids is priceless.
Wow, what an awesome video. It was enjoyable and informative as all your videos are. I appreciate all the time and effort you put in on these. You are the best.
Tnx for the good word Darron
Getting into magic, your videos are definitely the best!
Glad ya think so, thanks for dropping a good word!
Thanks for all of these tutorials!
Happy to make em! Thanks for commenting bud
Great shirt Doug! I love the idea of giving out two sponge balls at the end. I did that for one of my kids birthday performances and went over well. Who doesn't like free stuff they can fidget with.
Yes indeed, I really feel it is an ideal giveaway… I mean what would a real magician do if he could produce ‘toys’ from thin air? He’d give them to kids! Also: thanks for the positivity on the shirt!
This is just great! Big love from the UK.
I was talking with a buddy just a few months back and neither of us could remember the name of the magic shop there in Dothan. I will definitely be giving him a call to let him know.
I caught the magic bug much the same way you have probably inspired one of the kids you performed for. Cliff Holman was doing magic shows in The Spinning Wheel ice cream shops in Birmingham back in the late 60s. I bet I sat through 4 or 5 of them over the two days he was there. On the second day, I was brave, or curious enough to make my way to the front of the crowd and after his last show, he came up to me and said that he noticed I had watched several of his shows and asked if I wanted to learn some magic. He gave me a paddle with a top hat on one side and a rabbit on the other. He also took the time to show me how to perform the illusion. What surprised me was that he was interested in me showing the trick to him the next time I saw him.
I practiced it over and over again, and the next month when he returned to The Spinning Wheel I was right there in the front row. After the show, we sat and talked for a while and I performed the trick for him. He made me feel special and we had a few encounters over the years. The last time I saw him was at a mutual magician's funeral. Ken Neighbor passed away and I got another opportunity to sit and talk with Cliff. We shared a few stories and had a few chuckles.
Thank you for reminding me of some great times and sharing your videos. Take care.
What a lovely comment! Thanks for sharing! ✌️
Dude.... I did this exact routine at a wedding reception, and it killed!
Thank you for this tutorial! 👍🙂
This is the feedback that lets me know I’m doing exactly what I should be doing! Thanks for sharing!
Hi Doug I fist heard you on Magic Guys. Glad to see your channel.
Howdy! Glad ya found me!
I am liking the new LSOH shirt you are sporting!
Thanks, Tim. I had this one made as a test and will likely be making more.
Love the flexibility of sponge balls. You can start with one, do great magic, and then a second sponge appears and miracles start happening
Yes indeed! It can be 3 seconds or 3 minutes!
Your channel is pure GOLD, thanks
I’m glad you think so! 🌟🏅
Kids! The best or harshest critics going!
I love your sponge ball tutorials ! I know what's happening n still go What!?
Thanks for sharing all your videos Sir!
My pleasure, tnx for watching!!
Thank you for your videos! They have helped me gain confidence to perform. One question I have is the table you use in the sponge ball videos on the street. Did you build this yourself or is it available online? I’ve been wanting to construct my own but your design appears very sturdy. The criss-cross legs look like a stand used for a portable organ or keyboard. Suggestions or thoughts? Thank you again!!!
Spongeballs are so strong. I perform this for adults, and the reactions are the exact same as kids, if not stronger. I think it is slept on by a lot of magicians (though probably not in my circles 😊)
Yup these are facts! Only thing better is bunnies (*& bunny babies) I think modern magi might overlook this classic but I’m here to keep it alive!
Gracias magico.
just THANKS !!!
:) 🙌✌️
even knowing that the ball is not in his hand, it’s still hard to believe that it’s just not there
That’s the idea!
Hey Doug, do you aways use red balls do you ever use green or yellow?
I’ve experimented with different colors but currently sticking with red.
tkx, very good
Religions are started 😂👍 Good stuff Doug, thx
