Ended with a word-for-word copy of @D_Copperfield's Snow illusion. When asked why he didn't do the normal ending he said, "'Cuz this whole show took place in the snowglobe of an autistic child." Then he left and yelled over his shoulder, "No refunds!"

The show may have suffered from the weight of expectations. I give it a B-.

Saw @derek_del's final @InandOfItself the other night. It was a little... odd. I think it was the right time to end the show. I thought I'd recap it for those who couldn't make the final performance.

Told a woman her "body was so hot" & she "should be a weather girl" He googled "magic tricks to get girls" on his phone but it was hooked up to an onstage projector from a previous trick so we all saw. She wouldn't give him her # & he said "ur ugly anyways. I was just being nice"

Weirdly he gave a 45 minute workshop on the bottom-deal to an audience of primarily non-magicians. Everyone got a deck and they were half-heartedly dealing into their lap. Cards were falling everywhere. A/C broke and the heat kicked on for some reason. Really miserable.

Got really excited at one point and said, "Let's prank call Helder Guimarães!" But then he took a Totino's Pizza Roll from his pocket and bit into it and it squirted all over his shirt and he seemed to forget this idea.

He was asked if he was going to vanish the gold brick in this final show and he said, "Sorry. Can't. I used that to smash in a drifter's skull last night. This city is becoming a cesspool. Thanks, deBlasio!"

He told a really long story about his "sexual awakening" and a Kathy Ireland poster he had on his bedroom wall in eighth grade. The whole time he flashed a D-lite on his thumb. Everyone looked at each other like, "That's all the magic in this part?"

He did a trick where a jar of peanut butter switched places with a jar of jelly under two black tubes. Said the peanut butter represented his "childhood ambitions" and the jelly his "suicidal ennui." When it was over he pointed to a guy in the 1st row and said, "Deep shit, bro."

"You ready to watch me redefine the art of magic?" he said. Then he blew a fart noise in the crook of his arm.

DD got very angry with @TheFrankOzJam. Said: "If he wants to control the star of the show he should go back to working with puppets. I'm not Fozzie bear, I'm a grown-ass man!" Started crying.

DD seemed drunk (high?) when he came out on stage. Hair disheveled. Smoking. Thanked, "Everyone involved in the show. Kristin Scott Thomas, or whoever." I think he meant @ActuallyNPH .

The lecture was a bust. I'm hoping the lecture notes will make up for it, at least somewhat.

Lot of people crying.

He just walked out of the room, kicked over a table and said, "I FOOLED PENN & TELLER, BITCHES!!!!"

Can't believe I paid extra for this.

Wow big revelation "This is just a payday for me. Honestly the only thing I hate more than magic is all you fucking dorks here today." Ouch.

Things seem to be wrapping up. He's stripped to the waist. Sweating like a maniac. Says he has one last thing to say.
