I'm looking forward to the day when people once again can see your skills in a live theatre.

[@MagoMersi]

The best words i have ever listened from one magic performer, may be from one man.

[@nickk8416]

Michael, you are such a wonderful personality. I've followed you since your initial Penn and Teller appearance and am always astonished at your amazing skill and patter. Thank You so much and very best regards.

[@RockyTopSplash]

I cant tell you Michael how much I enjoyed this. Thank you so much for taking the time to do it. I hope you have a wonderful Christmas. I look forward to all your work

[@MichaelVincentMagic]

Cheers Ricky, Merry Christmas

[@jjiacobucci]

Michael, thank you so much for sharing your talent ! For sharing your gift of astonishments ! For sharing your love for humanity. You have a special heart. I, too, as a boy, would go to the library for the books of magic. I really appreciate your stories of the great magicians who inspired you. God bless !

[@jimmyrhodes606]

Absolutely stunning Magic!! Thank you for sharing Michael

[@CRAMs99]

Michael, you say that you consider yourself to be, to this day, a student of magic. Well, I am saying that I consider you to be, since the first day I ever saw you perform on Penn and Teller Fool Us Season 1, a master of magic! Amazing show and wonderful Christmas gift to your community. Thank you sir :)

[@eamonndoohan8863]

I was in a the mood to watch a world class close up performance from a world class magician, so I discovered this again and watched it again. What a class performance. Brilliant effects , well,presented. Well done again. I’m going to have to get a copy of the book you mentioned at the end. Was a thrill to watch Ramsey cylinder and coins as well. An effect I’ve a,ways wanted to learn. Bravo!

[@demianwheeler5142]

You are a living legend, Michael. Thank you!

[@junheceta268]

I am seeing this particular video late, but I have long been a fan. And everything you said in your introduction is spot on. Great magic is where you find it and I'm sure this program when it first aired helped so many keep sane during lockdown. And it will entertain fans like me for years to come. Thank you!

[@MichaelVincentMagic]

Thank you Jun. I very happy to read your kind words🙏🏽

[@hwsdmagic]

Thank you Michael. It is Christmas Eve and while wrapping a few gifts thought I would watch you show. I could not have asked for a more wonderful way to enjoy the magic of Christmas that to watch your performance and list to your thoughts on magic and it’s meaning in our lives. God bless you and thank you for your inspiring words. All the best for you and your mom in 2021!

[@prahladsaldanha568]

It was many years ago when I saw MV discussing how he wanted to do a colour changing deck without adding other effects like triumph (on The Pathway to Excellence, I think). Now I've finally seen his vision realized!

[@HEADSHoTKiLLz12]

Michael you are a champion! Love everything you do and you have always been my favourite magician. Have a wonderful Christmas!!

[@Sleightly_Magical]

Michael excellent work!! I always loved your presentation in your magic especially with cards.

[@MichaelVincentMagic]

Thanks 🙏🏽

[@henrylesser4799]

Great "show" Michael ! You were very active on KZbin back in the Spring and then seemed to go a little quiet , so it was good to see you on the screen again . Every trick performed so smoothly despite all the technique involved ( and I imagine that being perched on the edge of a sofa is not an ideal way to have to perform ) . Nice to hear your stories about those magic shops no longer in existence and the magicians who most inspired and helped you in your younger days . I remember Ken Brooke's Magic Place well - and actually took him up on his money back guarentee if not satisfied offer in my teenage years -uite a brave move of mine looking back on that now ! Nice patter idea about the Invisible Palm being in Erdnase . Merry Christmas and best wishes for 2021 !

[@magicbyroger916]

BEAUTIFUL coin work on the Ramsey cylinder...just fantastic to watch the choreograghy!

[@jbillo6564]

Beautiful magic. I will always remember your set at the magic circle in London about 17 years ago. You've been an inspiration for me as a studious amateur magician.

[@ltravail]

Love Michael Vincent's skills, presentation, and conversational acumen. He's a gentleman-magician, like the greats of old, and a scholar of the craft. Gotta correct him on a couple things he said at the beginning of the video, though. First, we do have those little communications devices like Captain Kirk used to use, but they're not advanced enough to beam us up yet. And second, we cannot communicate faster than the speed of light. But outside such cheap nitpicking, I could listen to him pontificate about the craft of magic all day long. Thoroughly enjoy listening to him.

[@ronaldmchenry4311]

I still feel as though I should've payed for attendance. So many effects in a row! Wonderful show Michael, and an even more wonderful message. Your audience is still here, and we're not leaving!! ♠️♥️♣️♦️

[@MichaelVincentMagic]

Thank you Ronald. 🙏🏽

[@martynjago9030]

Brilliant once again and very inspirational , I'm not on Instagram but always watch your videos on KZbin. All the best for the new year to you Michael and your mum ❤️

[@jerdlo]

Muchas Gracias Sr. Vincent, espectacular la magia que realiza, Saludos desde Colombia!!!

[@fmattiellomagic]

Beautiful version of invisible palm. Enjoyed the full video

[@MichaelVincentMagic]

Thank you sir

[@daniyalrazakazmi7249]

I did "Do as I Do" (the easiest technique) ; "the tantalizer"; kind of a "Triumph"; " Out of mind out of sight" (with only six cards) to my brother, mother and aunt.. It was awesome!!! Michael you are awesome sir!!

[@jjiacobucci]

PS: I hope you are continuing to do live shows when the quarantines are no more. I would like to see you perform live ! Greetings from Grand Rapids, Michigan

[@GeorgeB514]

Thank you Michael. This was a real treat. All the best of the holiday season to you and yours.

[@Trickboy36]

Hello Michael, Every time I watch you I learn something. I really like the Silent Mora combination in the C& B. It definitely leverages the vanish! I am very biased since I too learned most of my magic from books. I think magicians from that generation knew not just the how but the why. Elements that can’t really be absorbed in a download or DVD. I feel you are fulfilling a critical role. You are the bridge from the past masters (Vernon, Slydini, Cellini, Dingle, etc.). We’re blessed by your generosity. Kindest regards to you and your Mother.

[@MichaelVincentMagic]

Thanks Peters. Credit to Johnny Thompson for that three ball vanish

[@Trickboy36]

@@MichaelVincentMagic I think JIS has some work on this as well. Speaking of masters-the late Johnny Thompson!

[@MichaelVincentMagic]

Great show Michael, thank you for doing it because I haven't seen a magic show in over a year and this was refreshing. I can't wait for things to get back to normal.

[@tww2002]

Always enjoyable. The Master!

[@stevengriffin1406]

Michael this is a fantastic Christmas gift to us! You sir are a bright light in the darkness. Thank you and may God bless you. Happy Christmas to you and your family!

Nicely done, Michael! Unlike most other magi, I don't see any telegraphing. Great job!

[@Supermagictv]

Great performance ! Merry Christmas to you Michael !

[@urbanstylecaptures8716]

This was an excellent broadcast and I am so happy you shared this!!! May no undo burdens be placed on yours, yours is an excellent mentor indeed. Awesome. 😎

[@urbanstylecaptures8716]

I thought you were going to do the hands behind the back which hand magic trick that my father used to perform for me. He was awesome and very much not unlike you. Haha. 😎

[@urbanstylecaptures8716]

Your history is fluent and awesome. I’m keeping this.

[@tomwatts1493]

Wonderful! Thank you. 👐

[@sereniataylor112]

Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful magic with us & I must say that I can’t think of a better present to have during this Christmas season than the joy of watching you create such amazing magic along with your colorful stories about your hero’s. It is especially great to see because of all the challenges that 2020 has brought to a lot of people in the world so to be able to engage in magic & your conversation is totally refreshing & welcomed. I too think you should add a PayPal tip link so that the option is available for people to give gifts back to you. Merry Christmas.

Algorithm

[@rockywaters9592]

Everything is world class as usual, but i have to point out something in your syntax that's always bothered me over the years of watching you perform. "Under the shadow of darkness" doesn't make sense, what you should really be saying is "under the darkness of shadow," because its the shadow that creates the darkness, your hand is creating darkness via a shadow, therefore the magic is being created under the darkness "caused" by a shadow, a shadow that's created by your hand obscuring the light "not" by darkness, therefore its "under the darkness OF shadow."... Please don't take that as an insult but I just felt I had to point out that small error in syntax, thankyou!

[@MichaelVincentMagic]

No offence taken. Always something to Learn by and through superior knowledge and intellect 👍🏽

[@rockywaters9592]

Very pedantic but I've always had the same gripe about that turn of phrase

[@rockywaters9592]

@@jbillo6564 I'm sure Michael didn't take it as me bring negative, but considering how much attention to detail Michael produces in his work I thought I'd mention it, and thanks! I'm glad i wasn't the only one who noticed it. All the best buddy. ✌️💜

[@aleksandarjovic4275]

Clearly CGI. You can tell how the cards which were clearly in one place, appear in another with no explanation.

[@BeastCake1349]

I’m assuming you’re joking and if you’re not then you just disrespected one of the greatest sleight of hand artists living today.
