I've read more than a few posts here on the Café knocking Henry Evans, but I must say, I just saw him for the first time at the national IBM convention in Cleveland, and he was definitely one of the highlights. His booth was by far the busiest in the dealers room (when he was there) and his magic was stunning.

I ve read more than a few posts here on the Café knocking Henry Evans, but I must say, I just saw him for the first time at the national IBM convention in Cleveland, and he was definitely one of the highlights. I have not played with the gimmick extensively but I am very hesistent to riffle shuffle or even overhand shuffle the deck while the gimmick is in the deck.

In addition to their ideal location, the Austin Talisman residences also boast an impressive range of amenities.

Henry efans magic

I have modern times.

Basically two gaffed cards that fits into a nice routine.

I think that the handling he gives you is a little bit limiting, as you must have 2 decks of cards to do this effect, and the set-up would take a second to do behind a briefcase or whatnot.

However, the gaffs themselves are brillent and are very nice to use for whatever you can come up with.

The only downside is that the gaffs only come in one color, and so if you tend to work with blue decks like I do, the gaffs aren't as workable for most of your work, they work better with red decks imho.

But its a great opener and very flashy.

I purchased his rising card and ten perfect cuts. I've been performing his rising card since the convention, and it is really powerful. Imaging the spectator holding the deck, their selected and signed card rises out in their hands, and then they can completely inspect the deck without ditching anything. Very clean.

Ten perfect cuts looks beautiful, but is more practical for a close-up show rather than walk around.

I agree with others that say his instructions are vague. But if you see this guy perform the effects that he puts out, they certainly don't play like duds as many have pointed out.

I didn't buy matching couples or modern times, but both looked good. Modern Times benefits from a little bit of distance from the audience.

Too impractical for any performance situation that I work in. Near impossible for restaurant work and I don't do many parlor sitdown shows.

Henry Evans' rising card (which actually is Varone's effect and is mentioned in Henry's marketed effect Automatic Kings ) and Evans' Tribute to Varone effects are brilliant and are very practical in restaurant and other walk-around situations. But the instructions, particularly for the rising card, absolutely stink, so don't buy the effects unless you also buy a Flash Gordon decoder ring.

Modern Times is fantastic! Henry Evans has a three DVD set from L&L Publishing. I would strongly urge you to purchase them as they show Henry perform and explain many effects. He doesn't perform or explain Needle thru Deck or Matching Couples but Modern Times, Rising card, Automatic Kings and several other effects he sells. You will probably find it easier to buy the effects instead of make them yourself but the DVDS are worth it as his written instructions aren't the best or easiest to understand. One new Evans trick Flipper Card is absolutely brilliant and visual as any I've seen. It doesn't appear on the DVDS but if you buy it and have trouble I'll be happy to assist you. I saw Henry perform this a while back and it is really nice for under 20.00. But I still think Modern Times is his best effect. A bargain for 25.00, it would be worth 50.00 for the kind of opening that really grabs your audience!

Henry Evans is probably the magician who has fooled me most often during a single lecture. But when the routines were explained I knew I would never use any of them in the real world.

Yes, funny you mention that. I bought his DVD set, I was fooled more times then I would like to admit, however when the methods were explained I found them too impractical for me to use, with the exception of his rising card.

I agree with what many of you have said. I saw Henry Evans perform and then lecture at Magi-Fest last year and was fooled many times and very impressed with the effects as well. But after learning how he does a number of the effects I would not use them because of how impractical it would be. Of course as has been mentioned already his version of the Rising Card is great and has replaced my Kundalini rise. I also remember thinking that Modern Times wasn't bad or as a opener the silk routine where a silk vanishes from one hand and appears in the other hand which is sealed in a plastic bag. He didn't cover Tribute to Varone but the demo at Hank Lee's looks good.

So, in short, magicians are all lazy. ^_^
Some magicians hate to set-up, perpare, or even use sleights(really?).

Lennart once told me that he loves Self-working Card tricks more than sleights of hands. Haha!
Everyone is being more lazy now.

Henry Evans' effects are great, if you dare to do the hard work, you will get your relatively reaction.

I purchased modern times. This I did after busting my hands trying to construct the cards as shown on his dvd. At the time, modern times had not been released, which really bothered me. Im taliking about the fact that he would demonstrate several mind blowing effects on the dvds, and leave you with no way to purchase them. But that has changed since L&L released some of those effects.

Yes, his instructions stink. I realize he does not speak englisg fluently, but that is no excuse for not finding someone who does, and asking them to help with the writhing of the instructions. In that aspect, he is really skimping on quality.

Henry, if you are reading this, you need to heed. We as purchasers of your effects want CLEAR, easy to understand instructions written in good english. Otherwise, we will not purchase anymore.

Actually I disagree. The thing is, a lot of his tricks use gimmicks. And I think I am correct when I say most of them, infact do. I cannot keep switching deck after deck to do each one of his tricks, or keeping this many gaffs in my deck. I don't mind using a few gaffs here and there, but as you can see this is not the case. Laziness and Hardwork really aren't factors when dealing with Henry Evans effects, as most of his stuff isn't hard to learn, just too impractical to carry around and use in an everyday situation.

I believe my post was misunderstood as well mainly because I worded it poorly and failed to go into further detail. I was not implying that his effects are bad at all, in fact many of the effects are absolutely amazing and very magical. As has been stated many are not technically demanding nor do they require extensive, knuckle busting sleights. My intention was simply to convey that for doing walk around or strolling magic, as for my personal preference they are impractical to use in these type of situations. Again they are beautiful effects and I can certainly see why he won FISM. Many would just not work well for me in the circumstances I usually perform in.

The reactions Henry Evans gets with his illusions are, I think, worth the effort of building-gluing-threading them. His tape set is very entertaining to watch and I'm sure there's enough there to keep any working performer busy for quite some time.

Hi Guys, I had a quick question regarding the rising card/automatic kings gaff. I do have the gaff and was wondering your thoughts on shuffling the deck while the gaff was present in the deck. I have not played with the gimmick extensively but I am very hesistent to riffle shuffle or even overhand shuffle the deck while the gimmick is in the deck. I scared the gimmick will get caught up or break.

The other question I had was directed to using this gimmick in a routine. Do ppl have the gaff in their deck throughout their entire set or ring it into the deck at an appropriate time? With my experience just with the gaff in the deck, you can just feel the friction between the gaff and adjacent cards, just doesn't feel very nice to me.

This is a very devastating effect. I am just mentioning some handling concerns that I have experienced. Any help or additional thoughts would be greatly appreciated

I know how you feel. In my card routine, when I take out the deck from the box, I leave the gimmick in the box. I perform regular tricks using sleight of hand and such. This gives the audience the feel that it is a genuine deck. Then, I go into my packet effect, but before I perform it, I put the rest of the deck back in the box, as it is unneeded, so its justified. Then, when I am finished with that, I bring out the deck again and this time I bring the gaff out with it. As for shuffling, I would keep it on the bottom or top of the deck while riffe shuffling, allowing it to not be mixed with any other cards, as they might get caught up in it and break it. I usually don't leave the cards to be examined, not because I'm scared of them finding the gimmick, but because I quickly move on to other effects.

An incredible effect in unbeatable conditions . and also easy to perform !!

Reviews for "The Top 10 Features of Austin Talisman Residences"

1. John - 2 stars

I stayed at Austin Talisman Residences last week and I was not impressed. The rooms were outdated and in need of a serious upgrade. The furniture was old and worn, and the carpet was stained. The bathroom had a strange smell that wouldn't go away even after complaining to the front desk. The staff were also unfriendly and unhelpful. Overall, it was a disappointing experience and I wouldn't recommend staying here.

2. Emily - 1 star

I had a terrible experience at Austin Talisman Residences. The walls were paper-thin, I could hear every noise from the neighboring rooms. The Wi-Fi was practically non-existent and the TV had only a few working channels. The kitchenette was poorly stocked and the appliances were outdated. The worst part was the cleanliness of the room - there were stains on the bedding and hair in the bathroom. I was extremely unsatisfied and will never stay here again.

3. Sarah - 2 stars

I expected more from Austin Talisman Residences, but unfortunately, it didn't live up to my expectations. The air conditioning in my room was not working properly and it took multiple calls to the front desk to get it fixed. The noise from the nearby street was unbearable, even with the windows closed. The location was also not ideal, as it was far from the city center and there were limited dining options nearby. I would advise looking for alternatives if you're planning on staying in Austin.
