We (The Big Easy Magic Co.) should be recieving our copies any day now, I will post when they are in (and there is a lik the the site in the p.net links section). It was mostly filmed around here (NOLA) and yes, Sonny is in it as far as I know, and yes, they are about busking, but, of course, busking with MAGIC, as it is all Jim does. (Other than publish)

Any thoughts, comments, reviews?

I've only heard.
Chris Smith the Magic Smith has seen a promotional copy and says it's just great, and I trust his judgment. He says it's all about getting the money.
I don't think it's available yet, but when it is, you might check out The Magic Smith in Laguna Beach, Calif., in the 949 area code.
I just ran across an announcement for the video from a wholesaler, which says they have the Cellini video in stock. Here are the details:
>* The Art of Street Performing DVD/Video with Cellini *
Available on DVD and VHS!
A word from Cellini about this long-anticipated video release:
"This video will do much more than entertain you. It will enlighten you and
excite you. It can even change the course of your life. I have tried my
best to explain this illusive art. You will learn how to attract, build,
hold and entertain an audience, while making a good living. Those I have
influenced found themselves transformed by the experience in ways they
never imagined. All the secrets are here...it's up to you. It could change
your life forever..it did mine!" - Cellini
I purchased the Cellini video after trying my hand at street performing twice. As a totally inexperienced street performer, I believe it paid for itself the first time I was out after watching it. I don't know how much it would help a more experienced performer, though.
If anyone's interested, I just wrote a review of the Cellini videotape for my email newsletter. It's too lengthy to post here, but if you send me a private email, I'll send it back to you.
Make sure you tell me that you saw this on performers.net.
