Post subject:  FR: Magic tricked, got AMOGed, got a contact, became best fr
This is one of the worst FRs I have done in several months. It was a difficult night.

So tonight, Ricky picks me up at 9. We head to the metro to ride into DC where we are meeting Mike and his buddy at the Ultra Bar.

My plan was to do this week's PickUp Labs test, but I cannot rmeember how it goes...Flow and Mold. (I'll study it more today and try it tonight.)

At Bethesda Metro, while waiting for the train, I open a couple sets. My opener for the night is the scarf through the neck trick. (You can see a billion people doing this trick on Youtube.) I got the idea for the trick from a FR on ScotlandLair.

I do this by walking up to a set and saying "Hi, I'm Sensei. I am a magician-comedian and this is my assistant. While waiting, I decided tro invite you to my next show. But, I want know if you are cool enough. Do you know what a Pashmina Shawl is? I got this on a recent trip to New York. It is 100% silk and is handcrafted by a Hong Kong wizard. It's magical." I then hand my hat to my "assistant", Ricky, and each end of the scarf to an HB in the set. I count to three, have then pull and the scarf passes through my neck.

While the set is amazed, I then attempt to push through to DHVing and DQing. The set is intrigued enough to listen, but not enough to bite.

We are running out of time, so instead of getting out at each station like normal, Ricky and I just ride straight to Gallery Place to go to the Ultra Bar.

While in line, I text Freezerburn and Sam to join us. For some reason, I get no answer. While waiting for Mike to arrive with a ticket that will save me the $20 door fee, I open a couple sets with small talk. It's not doing anything, but I am at least opening. Besides, compared to what we have been dealing with all winter, the weather is really nice.

Mike and wing arrive. We get inside. We all wonder down stairs and gather at a seat. Ricky heads up stairs to open sets. Mike, Mike's wing, Color...just remembered his name...and I discuss openers. I say, "Watch this opener, guys." And I head into the crowd witht he scarf opener.

I open a three set. One Asian has a nice body, but her face needs a lot of work to not be distracting. The next girl is OK, but not much. The third, HBBroke(her name is Brooke, but in the din of the music, it sounded like Broke), is at least doable, maybe enough to let hang out with me for the night. My plan is to meet an HB and get her to bounce with us over to Ozio's at 1 am. Mike wings by asking if I need anything from the bar. "No, I'm good." I am thinking I can do this set so I let him go on. I kinda flubbed my talking with him. I should have pulled him in so I could pull HBOK.

I have Broke hold my hat and the other two pull the scarf. Amazed, I ask, "Which one of you is the most magical?" NiceBody says HBOK is. Broke agrees. HBOK says, "I only feel magical around Dane," she says, motioning to the bar. I figure, "OK, first set of the night, I'll isolate her and I'll build from there. She has a BF, so I should be able to transition over to Broke."

"Cool! I'll show you a trick that you can show these two. Follow me over here." I turn and walk about twenty feet. I turn around and OK is still sitting, but an AMOG is talking to the set. I come back over.

"Aw, man! I thought this one was cool," I say to the AMOG, "But she refuses to learn a magic trick."

AMOG turns to me, "This is my party."

I begin thinking, "Wow, what a way to totally own a floor of a night club,,,claim the whole thing as your party." "That's so COOL!" I say. "Then you need to come here and learn this trick."

I pull him over. I show him the coin in the elbow trick. I teach him so he has something cool to show others, "since this is his party." He's totally in to it. He explains that NiceBody is his wife, "but the other two are single." He was telling me the other two were OK to sarge. I show him how to assist me in another trick that we are going to show the set...the One-Handed coin trick. (Lance Burton sells a DVD that shows how it's done. If you want it, you gotta buy the DVD...the guy's gotta make money to eat.)

We get back over to the set. Only Brooke is around. "Where'd they go? I had one more trick to show you all."

"They went to the bathroom," she says.

AMOG says, "Hang on. You gotta see this next trick he does. I'll be right back." He turns to talk to a friend. Brooke makes about 5 seconds of talk then abruptly turns to talk to the DJ. I later found out the two open HBs of the set had each chosen a DJ to be their BF for the night.

I turn to head up stairs since I am not getting anywhere with this set in this small room. AMOG stops me. "What about the trick, Dude?"

"The girls weren't interested."

"Then wait for them. It is so cool!"

"Well, we can do it for these guys here." (A mixed four set in front of us.)

AMOG pulls them in and gets them excited for the trick.

The trick goes off flawlessly. They are stunned. "Come on, guys! That deserves a round of applause!" They cheer. "So who's gonna buy me a drink for that one?" They all turn away.

I pull the HB, Lean, to the side to talk. "Do you know any magic?" I ask to get her into conversation.

"Well, I could show you one if you had a deck of cards."

"I pull my deck from my back pocket.

She does a modified version of a trick i do. I show her how to enhance it to get a free drink from somebody. I then show her, "Are You Lucky?" She's impressed.

AMOG comes over. Lean turns out of the conversation. I decide to show AMOG one more trick, "The Dive Bomber", and then I'll eject. I was realizing I was a dancing monkey...wasting my time with a group that is not going anywhere.

He's impressed. Turns out, he really was throwing a party, and throws one every Friday. Still, I eject and meet up with Color. He talks about what opener to use. I tell him to do, "Who lies more" since it hasn't been used in a while. He is over thinking it, and how to hook and stack out of it.

He talks how he is concerned about opening on the dance floor. I teach him theRiver Dance. I take him to the dance floor and explain that if women see him having a good time without them, they will want to be part of his good time. I steer him toward the set he wanted to open. He does but they are not responsive.

We eject after a few minutes. I have gotten really rusty on my opening since I haven't been out for a few weeks.

We are sitting on a couch discussing finer points of theRiver Dance. A couple drunk guys walk by making a comment about us being fags on the couch. An HB walks by with a guy. She's raising her arm in the air and whooping. In a moment of being an ass, I say, "You need to shave your armpits." She stopped whooping and put her arm down. Color calls me on it. I admit it was totally uncalled for and I should have been more subtle with, "You must be French."

Mike comes over and wants Color to wing with him for a bit. I decide to recline because I was obviously upset. While sitting there, a security personnel shines a light in my face. He thought I was sleeping. I explained I was just getting mellow after the drunk guys upset me. I sit back down for a moment then head upstairs alone to solo sarge.

The 2nd floor was way too crowded. How they fit that many people in one room, and how people could dance in it was beyond my comprehension. I head to the third floor. The girls are coming to dance in groups of four.

They were giving off the, "If one of us isn't getting a guy, none of us are," vibe. But, they were not worth rounding up the guys for. It was way too much woman for any of us...did all of them get big over the Christmas season? Too much ham and candy canes?

I get back to the first floor. Lean is taking pictures. She gets one of Mike and me. She offers to send it to me and I record her email address.

Mike and I meet up with Color and Ricky. I am wanting to head to Ozio's since it is 1 am. I am really hungry since I had not eaten since 8 am. I think I sound like a whiny bitch, but Color is hungry too.

We head out to his car. We get lost and end up in a part of DC where white guys get jacked for being white. They had punched the wrong address in the GPS. Now, normally, I don't sweat much, but the last thing I want is to be dead in Suitland. The address is corrected and we head out. I know I was panicking, and tried to unsuccessfully keep it calm on the outside, but we were in deep shit.

We made it out with only a few odd looks our way.

We get to Ozio's and turns out you must be 21 to get in.

We head to Bethesda, ending up at the Hollywood Grill. We game the hostess a bit, for fun. After our meal, at 3 am, we head home.

well sometimes the magic just isnt in the air, you know?

Id say this tho... first I wouldnt ask people to buy me drinks after showing them a trick. Its a turn off; its expectant and its after the fact. Its also a serious DLV to ask. Its better to just be awesome at it and get them to hopefully spontaneously buy you a drink because they think you are cool and want your approval. Now you are getting DHVed instead by strangers.

Second, and Im serious here =P, you should have number closed the first AMOG, the guy who throws the parties. That guy should be your new best friend, and you should be his new party magician. Then he will be introducing you to HBs any friday you want, and winging for you by playing you up, and you are no longer a dancing monkey. Are the DJs dancing monkeys? Nope. So now the girls will want to score you as much, if not more so, than the DJs. Not to mention you will be getting in for free each time as well, with no wait for a ticket, probably some drinks on top of that.

You should go back next week and try to set him up for it. Id say the night wasnt a total loss at all.

daggaz, I forgot to mention that. The point where we went out of the club, AMOG was with another guy and woman from his party. I start taling to the other guy. He notices a special pin on my felt fedora.

I sit on the board of a charity that helps military, firefighters, police, and EMTs that are wounded on the job. He and the AMOG are members of Yellow Ribbon. So, we exchange info. (The last words of the title of this thread are "best friend" and not "best fr"...limited characters.) I will be doing shows at his parties.

Sharkoffs, everybody has a bad day. Mine lasted a weekend. One thing you will notice is that I do report the good, the bad, and the ugly.

This weekend was ugly.

Saturday, I went out with my best wing. I was in such a funk that I bailed after 15 minutes in the club. I made sure some other PUAs would wing with him this week and I jumped home.

Great minds think alike 8)

Heh, well sorry to hear about the rest of your weekend tho. Gotta hate shit days like that, but Ive really been focusing on holding my frame and reframing when it gets ugly regardless... Saved me on a cute HB7 from med school who flaked on me this Sunday.

I got pissed and blew her off ala Ross Jeffries, and could have left it at that, but suddenly I just got this hair in my ass like, Why am I just giving up on her? Even if she is lower value by doing this, I am both a good person who can forgive if they prove they deserve it, and as well I can learn something from the attempt. So I continued to push/pull her and she ended up begging forgiveness and promising to be a good girl, so now we are on for a second 2nd date, this time starting out fresh with a positive bang instead. We'll see if we can both pull it off, but Im gonna remain optimistic. =)
