Youtube isn't going anywhere and Asad has inspired more people to do magic than anyone who is commenting on this board. That is just a simple fact! <br /><br />I think he is great...and I've been doing magic my entire life just like all of you naysayers out there. He is here to stay...and Magic will be better off for it!<br /><br />Houston Curtis<br />The Card HustlerHouston Curtishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17453940784981302349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8614376202473604721.post-85047088431030334682014-07-12T06:33:59.072-07:002014-07-12T06:33:59.072-07:00Here's 2 simple thoughts.

(you care about CASH not guarding secrets)<br /><br />2. The majority of your material is based on "moves" you stole from magicians long dead and gone so you rationalize these moves are yours. LMAO<br /><br />You're all hypocrites. <br /><br />My advice: Go back to school. Get a real career and fckn stop whining.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11604416834285523220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8614376202473604721.post-65711648659414499372014-07-11T14:54:59.873-07:002014-07-11T14:54:59.873-07:00Aaron,

You make the point of it being alright to teach slights but not full routines. I think you NEED to be taught full routines in order to make your own tricks eventually. Just knowing card slights will get very few people very few places. Asad shouldn't be trashed because he's a teacher. Someone has to teach magic at some point in time.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04766587528810101548noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8614376202473604721.post-87466948768262841272013-06-10T16:17:29.095-07:002013-06-10T16:17:29.095-07:00How's you ever learned anything on magic? Huh?...How's you ever learned anything on magic? Huh? He#s explaining and teaching others. You're the one who understood nothing on magic, when you need to use it as your resort to upgrade your cheap aplomb, to overcome your inferiority complex with. You can't stand it if anybody can perform the same like you, so you're nothjing special anymore, as you've apparently no other capabilities to upgrade your self-assurance. Imagine everybody of every profession or handicraft in humans history would have had the same imbecile attitude. We would still live on trees. To share knowledge with those who are interested in it, enriches both the teacher and his pupils. You're not the appointed mother of or caretaker of the audience. Everybody has his own will to decide, if he want to get a secrect revealed, a illusion destroyed or not. This is what everybody is responsible for in the first place. Who doesn't wanna become a magician, should not ask for learning magic tricks. And on the other hand who can't stand and enjoy not to know how a illusion works CAN or yet should ask somebody. It's not your busimness, as people who are willing to pay for performances of magicians and don't want to get their illusions destroyed are not those who either learn magic tricks or would ever ask for to reveal it. And moreover it's not up to you to condemn self-determined men who've decided to know more or even everything on magic business and those who are teaching them. Keep your medieval attitudes below radar level. You#re so outdated. Over hundreds of years people teaching each other magic. Just because you get aware of it first now due to the internet, doesn't mean it would be a new phenomenon that had to bother you. Mind your own business. People, who wanna get magic tricks revealed won't pay for shows anyway. And those, who wanna learn it, will have their own appearances and do it to entertain those, who don't wanna have the tricks revealed. It's as simple as that.
