I show this friends a trick and then when I am in a party they say show these guys the one that....blah blah blah. I don't want to because either its a gimmick I don;t have on, or its angle sensative, or i am not ready to do it around many people.

When I say know they say, don't make us beg, show off, all that, what can i do?

show another trick. One thing I like to say when they ask me to do a trick that I need invisible thread or something, I point to the ceiling and say: "I'm sorry, but I didn't put a electromagnetic field distrupter up there..."

"Yea, that's a good one, but I've got something much better to show you..."
^insert good effect here

what?

THEM: Hey, chbatres, do that 2 card monte thing!
CHBATRES: I don't want to.
THEM: Come on, don't make us beg!
CHBATRES: Look, thats a good trick, but this one's much better...

do a different, powerful effect there... other than that, all u can do is say no, and they have to deal with it...

thanks, its a pain though isn't it?

ya it really is... in fact it happened to me tonight, these girls came to Outback that I knew, and they wanted me to do "the trick with the dime and penny"(Questionable Trick from On The Spot)

ME: "That ones ok.. but watch, I want to show you something with these aces.."

I did Weighted Aces, an AC routine, and finished with Four-Card Trick(Jumping Gemini variation)... they forgot about the dime and penny...

so as you can see, it works... but sometimes, they'll still attack you... they wanted me to levitate for them after, but too many ppl for any safe angles, so i said i was done for the night, and had to go...

"Im not feeling that one right now. I'll do another that will blow them away."
If they keep bothering you.."Stop bothering me about that one, I already told you I don't feel like it right now."
They keep bothering...(By the way, I do this sarcastically)"Look if you don't leave me alone I'll show you one where I make a knife come out of nowhere and magically make it appear in your face." (I like to sarcastically add violent remarks in my routines. Unless there are women around. Or children.)
