Clog friends everywhere, it’s your buddy Luke Dancy stopping in to make a post. It’s been quite some time since I’ve posted last so off we go!
A few weeks ago I made my way out west for the first time and it was a fantastic experience. Not only was I experiencing CA and all the great things there, such as In-N-Out Burger, but I had a chance to visit the one place I’ve wanted to visit for at least 15 years…The Magic Castle. This place is everything you hope for and then some. From the secret doors to the other hidden surprises it’s just an enjoyable experience. The place is full of history and it’s hard not to smile when walking through and checking everything out. I was also very impressed with the talent they had that week in the close-up room..a Mr. Paul Vigil. I’m now proud to call that guy a friend and if he’s back at the Castle performing do yourself a favor and check him out.
Even just hanging out by the main bar you are surrounded by some of the greatest minds (and hands) in magic. It was a privilege spending a couple of hours with Bill Goodwin and being introduced to all of his many friends..and fans. There is talk of the place being bought out so let’s all keep our fingers crossed while doing second deals and hope that the Castle is around for years to come.
Clog on my friends..
Luke


I second everything you said, Luke. The castle was amazing, as was their food. It’s just a great feeling to be there. Plus, meeting Bill Goodwin and Richard Turner was really fun as well. Makes me wish I lived closer to it.

It sounds like you and Tyler had a great time. Hopefully one of you guys will also post about your lecture and what happened on the Price is Right.
The “what happened in California, stays in California” rule doesn’t apply if you’re a Clogger.

I saw Paul Vigil perform, too. He had some very good stuff. If he’s ever out there again, I’d recommend checking him out…
