Castleton State College - August 29th, 2009

Hey Everyone! Back with another blog update from my most recent gig up in Castleton, VT for the totally awesome crew at Castleton State!

My blog updates could use some better up keep as I just got back from a ten college tour in the mid west. Which left stops at Morningside College in Sioux City, IA , Central College in Pella, IA, Iowa Wesleyan College in Mt.Pleasant, IA, The University of Chicago, and Northern Illinois University just to name a few. Sorry to those schools that there were no blog updates. Jumping from school to school with little to no sleep leaves little time to keep updates. But! I will do my best from now on!

Anyways, back to Castleton. We had roughly 100 kids at the show last night and everyone was absolutely stunned, I truly love seeing so many dumb founded faces. And it's also great when 3 guys get up, freak out, say "What The Hell!!" and walk out in confusion. Always fun!

At the end of the show, not only was I bombarded by several students with question upon question I also got the chance to demonstrate a few more mental abilities when a group of soccer dudes asked if I could name a few friends of theirs. Not only did I get the names, dead on. But I made them storm out in utter shock.

Well, as most of you know I always end my shows in a particular way. So like always I will answer the remaining questions.

A: Obviously I'm not going to give out the whole number but the bulk of it is (***) - 989-3112

Q:What color are my favorite pair of shoes? - Dan Gardner
A: It's orange and their Crocs.

Q: Will I be happy in my marriage? - Amanda C.
A: Oh, Amanda. How one could have a field day with this question. But I'll cut it short and save the time. If you work on it, care equally for one another, learn to reason, admit your wrong and suffer some humiliation from time to time. Like we all have to do. Then Yes I do believe it will succeed.

Well that just about does it. If for some reason I did not call your question, please email it to me and I will do my best to answer it. My direct email is chris@chrisboltermagic.com.

Thanks again Castleton State College! I had an awesome time and can't wait to come back!
