I didn't give up!
How many of us have effects we purchased sitting in the closet instead of using them. We really loved the effect when we saw it performed but for some reason never really mastered it or found it got the reaction you expected.
This happened to me years ago. I was really fascinated by Dick Zimmermans Linking Hula Hoops but never could get a good crowd reaction from it during performance. I really saw potential in it so Istayed with it and two years later finally found a presentation that worked well for me. The routine stayed the same but the presentation and music is what made the difference for me.
Does anyone else have stories of effects that took them a long time to get right? Lets here them.
Best,
Tim
