Master Greydon Gilmore

It was brought to my attention late this afternoon that one of the performers on Magic Tonight, the handsomely dashing Greydon Gilmore, has awarded his Masters Degree in Neuroscience for his work on the effect of deep brain stimulation on spatiotemporal gait parameters in Parinkson patients. (I've read the thesis, it's pretty neat stuff.) He was quick to add that, going forward, I should be referring to him as "Master" whenever possible. Of course, I'm happy to do that, but fair is fair, so here to celebrate this day of academic triumph are two pictures he'd forgotten I had in my possession. Congratulations Master Greydon!

Magicians Making Faces

Magicians caught before the unblinking eye of the camera. Enjoy these amusing and spontaneous images of Jason Palter, Glenn Ottaway, Greydon Gilmore and the irritatingly photogenic Keith Brown.  Feel free to leave any amusing caption suggestions in the comments section. Bonus points if you can spot the ones which are fake; taken after the shows.

Looking Ahead

I'm not usually this organized with the show — and scheduling performers is sort of like herding fruit flies — but I'm happy to announce the full schedule for Magic Tonight next month. It's an incredibly talented lineup. (And I'll be there too.) You can buy tickets to the show online (www.abracadabaret.com/purchase-tickets). Thursday nights are at The Franklin House in Streestville/Mississauga. Friday nights at The Bear in Pickering. At The Crimson Lounge in Toronto on Sundays.
