Default How Far Would You Go?



Daniel Garcia is one on MANY Magicians you will find on Twitter these days.

Garcia "tweeted" the other day:

"A single thought has consumed my mind all day.
Should I host a DG Weekend Workshop with a limited number of registrations available?
"


This raised a question in my mind...would I be willing to go to this??

Of course I said 'yes' like all of the 1,460 followers of DG on twitter. But I also asked myself the question...How far would I go to see DG? Would I travel all the way out of state on plane to go to a lecture of his in Texas?

That I didn't know.

The economy is a tough one for EVERYONE right now, so the logic of traveling across the country to see DG is very exciting, but how practical is it?



  • Cost of Plane Ticket

  • Cost of Meals

  • Cost of Lecture/Workshop

  • Cost of Lodging

  • Cost of Products bought

  • Cost of Rental Car and Gas


It just seems to add up. But can you put a VALUE on Garcia's information? Apparently we have been doing it for a while now (around 30 bucks for a DVD). So can you put a value on a WEEKEND WORKSHOP with Garcia? What do you think?

Hey guys.

What do you all think?

Would it be worth it?

No real new news on this.

But you can see DG in REEL MAGIC QUARTERLY.

ReelMagic Magazine

He has a interview in there about how he hurt his hand and recovered.
Worth looking into if you ask me.
