Jason Dean has what some have called "the best gig in magic." And up til now he's kept it pretty quiet.

"The Dean" gets called in when the entertainers need some entertainment. His specialty is working backstage at rock concerts to entertain the groupies, friends, and families of rockstars in the green room and the AFTER SHOW parties.

Jason has worked with a number of top bands including Godsmack and Metallica, and he's seen things backstage that make MTV's Spring Break look tame.

Jason's material is the stuff FREAKOUTS are made of. His delivery is deadly, slow, and accurate. He paces himself like he's playing a drum solo. He holds the beat no matter what he's layering on top. The magic builds, but his timing remains true. And by the time he's lined up the climax, the entire place is ready to scream.

When "The Dean" is backstage, you know things are about to get turned up a notch! In this incredible DVD we follow Jason backstage as he entertains the stars of the Grammy nominated band, Godsmack, after a sold out show at the House of Blues in Las Vegas. Everything you'll see really happened. The Penguin crew was there to capture it all.

And then he shows you how some of it all works! Life is good!
