Soooooooooooooo yeah..been busy getting ready for upcoming events now that WGMS is closed.  Starting one week from this Tuesday you can catch me opening up for my good friend The Amazing Jonathan at Planet Hollywood here in Vegas.  You may have seen Jonathan on Comedy Central and other TV shows.  He and I are also being awarded on this year's World Magic Award which is airing on Fox in November.  So check your local listings!

Don't foreget to come check out Altered Reality if you're in the midwest this coming weekend!

Also a few nights ago some heartless dicks stole mine and my neighbor's air conditioning units from outside our homes.  I know right!?!? Stole those huge honkin' AC units.  They cut right through the pipe and tubing in the middle of the night.  So I've spend a good chunk of money buying those tower fans to keep the place cooled as best I can until we get a new AC unit installed which will hopefully be in the next day or so cuz its freakin' hot in here!!!

Well its finally here and has come and gone.  May the World's Greatest Magic Show rest in peace.  it has been an awesome opportunity and an amazing group to be a part of.  It has given me the opportunity to work with so many of the heroes I grew up idolizing and can now call my friends.  In so many ways it was like bieng back in high school again with all the wise cracks and nonsense that went on backstage - it really was where the real show was.  I mean of course we'd go out onstage and do our thing but the real show should have been what we were doing back stage before and after we went on for our bits. 

Just because it has closed doesn't mean you've seen the last of us either!  So keep an eye out...

Sorry it has taken so long to get back on here and jab some more.  With the show closing and with little to no time to find out what the next move would be I've been running non stop...just last night temika and I were up all night at our friend Jonathan's painting and watching family guy then we came back home and I had to do a radio interview while Temika crashed and I worked on some more promotions for the Altered Reality shows back in Minnesota.  i then caught a nap for a few hours before having to go out to get sour cream...yes we had tacos and they sure were scrumpsious! -ok wait why do you care?

Anyways keep an eye out in the October issue of MAGIC magazine all you magic geeks out there as a sneak peek ad will be coming out for the Crimsons...zippity do dah'!

Wow i just looked in the mirror and i need to dye my hair...err wait...i dont' dye my hair..heh...heheh...

Ok so yeah Altered Reality, go to: www.AlteredRealityLive.com and get your coupons or pre-order tickets now!!!  There's only a few VIPs left!!! DO IT!!!

Oh yeah i nother news Temika and I made new friends, we had the awesome magic team The Pendragons over to our house the other night.  Believe it or not they're actually renting an illusion I aquired which Jonathan Pendragon invented!  How cool is that!?  What was even better was after we looked over the prop and whatnot we ended up coming inside and hangin out drinking Gatorade and temika and Charlotte (jonathan's wife) talked art while Jonathan and I talked about movies and batman which was waaaay cooler than talking magic with them.  it was a fun night and they ended upleaving some time in the wee hours of the morning and still had to drive all the way up to Northern California but got home safe and sound!

Speaking of Northern Cali...check out the tour dates section as I've got more dates added!  Go There Now!!!

Ok I gota get some sleep, sweet dreams kiddies!!!

Ok so...yes...like you probably saw in my last post...The World's Greatest Magic Show is closing on September 1st.  Even though I know it is happening and even though as I write it I see it on the screen and we talk about it literally every day backstage it is still hard to imagine that it is finally going dark...for good this time.  It has been my home for the past 3 years and everybody there is like a close knit family...I'm really going to miss our backstage antics which we often compare to the high school boys lockerroom.  There is a saying of the story of a little boy saying to his monther "i want to grow up to become a magician" of to which she replied "you can't do both".  I love that quote because it is so very much the truth.  At least for all of us backstage we're all stuck in our teenage years it seems to be.  I will still be based out of las vegas and I do have some irons in the fire but I'm going to take a break from being in a nightly show here in town in order to spread my wings a bit more.  In the comign months you'll see my friend Reza and I traveling around the mid-west with our illusion show.  Reza is a talented illusionist from south dakota and a friend of mine for the past few years.  We've been talking about a dual show for some time now and this is as good of a time as ever.  you can read more about it on the tour page or by visiting: www.alteredrealitylive.com . 

I'll be coming back to the castle in November as well as a few other dinner theaters on the west coast.  Right now though you'd find me updating my promo kit! haha.  wait...that's not funny at all.  Stay tuned as more developed...I gota go scan some more vintage newspaper articles about me...yay...i think?

its official...The World's Greatest Magic Show will have its final performance on September 1st...too much going on right now to write about...more to follow...

Well we're back from our little trip to Denver...that 12 hour drive through Utah sure was fun!  -yeah.  right.

Actually it wasn't bad, we were packed to the max with our equipment and headed out into the wild blue yander.  It was a great time and the shows were a hit.  Temika and I opened the show with the birds, lifesaver, coin operated boy, and closed with our new spiker illusion.  My good buddy Reza and his crew brought in all of our production lights and stuff and closed the show strong -after 2 and some odd hours later- long story don't ask- and all the other acts on the show kept it going.  This was really a fun time, no egoes, no jerks, just everybody pulling together and doing their thing to bring a great show to these people.  I can't wait to do it again!

More road show dates hve been posted in the tour section for this coming fall and still some more are in the mix off the top of my head I'll be heading to colorado again, then to hollywood, orlando, calgary, and some more i can't remember.  So stay tuned.  After we got back we spent an evening hanging out with my Uncle John who was in town.  Then I had to get up the next morning and drive to Pahrump..that's where all the brothels are - NO I DIDN'T GO THERE FOR THE BROTHELS - you perv.  Instead I did a show for hte Pahrump public library.  Today I have a show for my good friend and fellow magician Losander's daughter's 7th birthday so it should be a blast.  Really looking forward to it.  losander always throws the best parties!

Actually looking at the time I better go get ready for it.  Temika will be takin some pics and such so I'll post thsoe soon.  I know i've fallen way behind with the "whats int eh dumpster" and some other sections on this site...now that I ACTUALLY HAVE SOME FREE TIME for once in my life I will finishign up teh rest of the galleries and get some of that other junk done.  Ugh...eat me.

Yes, it has been quite some time since I have posted in my secret diary...but...i've been busy!

Things are busy at the World's Greatest show as we're in full swing of our sumer season and crowds have been packed in which is awesome.  it is always good to go out on stage to a packed house where you can really play off the energy of everybody.  Temika and I have been really busy getting ready to head to Colorado next week for our shows we have out there and trying to get a new illusion ready...if its not ready in time we'll just do Interlude as planned but I've been trying to find time to do some cosmetic upgrades to this new one we've been wanting to do and we'll just have to see if it is ready in time.

Last night my friend Teller let us come and see his show "Penn and Teller"...not sure if you've heard of them...they do a show at the Rio.  It was awesome, the best magic show in town no doubt.  If you're in vegas you have to go and see these guys.  They fried me hardcore on just about EVERYTHING they did!

I'm also behind on the "whats in the dumpster" posts on the forum so i'm going ot get going on that tonight after the show...so stay tuned...but for now i have to go take my pizza out of the oven and get ready to go to the factory!

ta'

Not gona lie...I'm pretty excited about some things developing out here in the desert...but I'm sorry to say I can't talk about them yet...all I can say is it'll be MayheM!!! 

Ok so tonight was kinda gross...I get off stage and am walking through one of the doorways backstage and I kinda brush past this black makeshift curtain which helps to keep the backstage dressing room area lighting from getting onto the wings onstage.  -Anways- So I walk through there and I feel one of my hair spikes like catch something...like I walked through a spider web or something like that..

well a few months back temika took a pic of this nasty huge ugly -prolly poisonous- spider.  So I'm like great now I have its babies in my hair.  So I just kind of flick my fingers through my hair back and fourth really quick and A HUGEASS COCKROACH FLIES OUT OF MY HAIR AND ONTO THE FLOOR AND SKURRIES AWAY!!!

yeah you read that right...a freakin' cockroach.  I didn't sign up for this...


Anyways in other news I finally posted a "what's in the dumpster at the greek isles" post in my forum...log onto: www.dansperry.com and jump on into the freaky fan forum to check it out!

I'd write more but my leg is falling asleep because I'm sitting on the floor in my living room and spike is asleep on my shin so I need to get up and move it about before it starts to feel like I have pins and needles poking me... until next time!

...check your bed covers

That's right boys and girls!  One of Danny Boi's top 5 favs is coming out with a new EP...Alkaline Trio is releasing Agony and Irony on July 1st...yay...not gona lie though I'm a bit worries about this one because I heard some of the sneak peak tracks from it and honestly Crimson was a bit dodgy and not as raw as some of their past stuff and from what I hear from Agony and Irony it is pretty Crimson-esque.  I guess we'll just have to see.  None the less buy their music anyway! 

Also got some photos for the "What's in the dumpster at the Greek Isles" section of the forum.  So go log in and register on the forum and get ready to have fun...yay.
