Southern New Hampshire University Show on March 3rd, 2009 !



So I'm Just back from Southern New Hampshire University tonight in Hooksett, NH. Thankfully I got to drive home and not back to a hotel for this show. Life on the road can be very blah sometimes lol.

We (as in myself and my two good friends Anton and Jeff who were kind enough to tag along with me to record and check out the show. Thanks again guys!) had a fantastic show and I've realized that being a mentalist, sometimes the silent responses to my effects are better than applause. The sheer shock and awe on the kid's faces tonight was startling, jaws on the tables, eyeballs spinning in their heads, can't beat it. I'll take stunned silence any day, although we did have some very funny moments, Mr. 5/6. You know who you are!

As most of the colleges who work with me know, I always close with my question and answer demonstration. Where everyone writes down questions about life, love and whatever else is on their mind at the time and I attempt to mentally divine the questions and ultimately, the answers. Unfortunately due to time constraints we could not get to everyone's questions, but I did promise to answer all of the other ones I happened to miss here on this blog post. So here they are. Now please be aware, and I can not stress this enough. NO questions were read after the performance, they were all immediately thrown away. If you don't believe me, well... check your trash haha.

The Missed Questions:

For: Danielle Dow or Daw
Your question was "Where will I be in 7 months"
I believe it will be somewhere having to do with school and studying, but I'm not 100%. I do not know exactly where it is. But for some reason England and Ireland keep popping into my head.

For: Katie M.
Your question was "What is my boyfriend's name?"
His name is Ryan.. and he's just super haha

For MB:
You asked if you would marry Bill.
Now short of being wrong on this I can with almost full confidence say that Yes, eventually you will. Just don't give him such a hard time (you know what I'm talking about)

For: Kayla Diskin:
You asked if you will be chosen as a JumpStart mentor.
I think you will, they like you a lot.

For anonymous:
You asked when you will get married.
I think you will be 26 or 27.. but it will not be to who you expect.

For anonymous:
You live in Washington dorm.

For J.L:
You asked what you had surgery on when you were born.
It was on your left clubbed foot. Hope it worked out for you!

For J.F:
You asked when you will get a serious boyfriend.
Without naming names, (because I don't know), you'll get one when you're ready for it. Which I know you think you are, but you are not yet. Just be aware because he is around you all the time and you don't even know it.
P.S : Yes you know him.

For Anonymous:
You asked what your best friend's names are.
Joanne & Corinna

For Ali:
You asked what your boyfriend's name was.
Josh Hoxie

For Anonymous:
I believe that with 10 years being your goal. You are likely to not move back to NYC right away. Shorten your amount of time to get there and you'll psychologically force yourself to make it there again faster. Don't wait to long though, in this case good things do not come to those who wait. You belong in NYC. Live it up!

For Anonymous... again:
You asked when you were getting engaged.
Find a guy first.. then worry about getting engaged. Just kidding! The guy you're with now just may be the one, but you are doubting it somewhat. Don't worry, I'll give it a year. (until he pops the Q)

For Amy Collard:
You also asked if your current boyfriend would propose to you.
The best I can say about this is. You tend to bring this up a lot with him. Don't over push it or you'll scare him. He loves you and wants to spend some serious time with you. Let it work out and you'll be happy with the results.

For Emily:
You asked what you will be doing career wise.
I think you will be focused in marketing, brand management with specifics in Advertising. Enjoy it and work hard!

For KM:
You live in Osterville, MA - Cape Cod.

For Anonymous:
You asked what your dorm number is.
327

For Anonymous:
You asked how many people you graduated with.
It was small, only 56.

For Meghan C.
You asked who you're favorite actor was.
I take it your either a Harry Potter fan, or a Twilight fan considering Robert Pattinson hasn't done to much else. (Wait until you see New Moon)

For Katie M.
Your boyfriend's name is Ryan.

Well that just about does it. If you happen to see you're question make sure you comment on it so others can see.

Again, thank you Southern New Hampshire University I had an awesome time and I can't wait to come back!

Take Care,

Springfield College Performance


A QUICK RECAP OF THE SHOW!


I'm absolute rubbish with keeping up with my blog. But constant updates are going to becoming faster and faster. Aside from that I just performed (just being 3 days ago now) a fantastic show at Springfield College in western Massachusetts. My home town of Quincy is about 2.5 hours east right south of Boston. So I had a nice road trip across the state.
The show was held in the very cool Alumni Hall right on the back end of the campus. Having been a somewhat muggy, rainy day we had a great turn out of very excited kids. (as you can see in the pictures)
To some students who I may not have reached during the Question and Answer phase of the show.
(only those who were at the show who wrote questions will understand the following statements)

Your favorite colors are red, green and yellow.

Why? Because you said so!

For Meagan:
Your mother's name is Lynn

For A.R:
You work at Six Flags New England (and you just love it!)

For D.S:
Your dog's name is Marley

For A.L:
If Nikki plays her cards right I believe they will

For Alison Harder:
Your sis' boyfriend's name is Mike L.

For Mindy:
Only if you switch majors. Jk.. If you work hard and love what you do you most certainly will

For C.C:
Your favorite TV show is "What I like about you"

For A.S:
Your first dog was a cockier spaniel - her name was Candy Girl

For Meg T:
You were born at Shaw Air Force Base Hospital in Sumter, South Carolina

For Kyle:
You had your wallet, ipod and cellphone stolen from you. Hang on to your stuff man!

Well that's pretty much it. If I missed you I sincerely apologize and hope you enjoyed the rest of the performance. If you check back on my facebook page and YouTube, along with my web site of course you should see some clips from the show very soon! So stick around!

I wanted to thank Ryan and Sam for all their amazing help at Springfield, my crew and I had an awesome time and can not wait to come back.

See you all soon.. and don't forget... I'm in your heads!!

Back from Western New England College

So I'm a few days since my last college gig at WNEC in Springfield, Ma. First of all, what a great school and a great group of kids. Not only were they incredibly helpful with everything. They were a fantastic audience and great sports. I'm so pleased to have performed for the school and am eagerly awaiting our next show this coming May!
Thanks so much WNEC! See you all in the Spring!

Recent Show in CT

So I just finished watching the footage from my show this past Sunday in Norwalk, CT. It was for this great law firm out of NYC, Hong Kong and London. Debevoise and Plimpton. They were a great crowd, and the show went extremely well.
I'll be putting up some random clips of the video for my corporate page on the web sites.
If anyone sees this from the firm, I just want to say thank you very much for having me. I hope you had a great ending to what I know must have been a long and tiring day. I look forward to seeing you all soon!

The Art Institute of Pittsburgh - August 21st. 2008

The Art Institute of Pittsburgh!

I just want to thank AIP for having me down to their awesome school on Thursday. Aside from the 10 hour drive down to Pittsburgh, and dodging mac trucks and big rigs the whole way, we had a fantastic and hilarious show with an amazing turn out of students. There are tons of pictures coming and I hope you all can find the humor in them, just as we did.

Thanks again AIP! I'll see you all next year!
