| Tips for Travelling With Your Show! My “summer season” started early with a 10 day outdoor fair in Southern California in February. Normally my outdoor season doesn’t start until March or April, so I’m out working on my tan early! Amazon Lockers: Most cities have Amazon lockers and they can be a lifesaver if you’re flying to a gig or staying at an AirBnB. Amazon Lockers are around town at things like gas stations and grocery stores. You can order things to be delivered to them the day before you get into town and everything will be waiting for you. No more running around to stores to get things you don’t fly with. For example, I’m at a 10 day gig, and will use probably 20 decks of cards. I don’t want to fly with them, it’s too much weight, so I simply ordered two bricks of cards to an Amazon Locker and they were there waiting for me. Cash: I always try to have $100 on me at all times for emergencies. That will get me to the next gas station and it’s handy just pay cash for your portion of dinner if you go out with other people. I also try to have five $20’s as it’s more versatile than a single one hundred dollar bill. AirTags: These are GPS trackers that work with iPhones (there’s an Android equivalent). It’s always nice to know that my show that’s checked luggage made it on the plane! |

| Roadside America: This is an iPhone app and website that has all sorts of quirky and unusual things around the USA (and a little bit of Canada). It’ll help you find cool things in to see or do in the area you’re performing in. Magic Clubs: When I travel to cities I look up local magic clubs and try to visit them. You can find lists of them on the S.A.M and I.B.M. websites. AreoPress: This is a small little gadget that makes great coffee and is easy to travel with! All you need is ground coffee and hot water. No more gross hotel coffee! Hope there’s a tip in there that makes travelling with you show a little more fun! -Louie |
