When we talk about those among us who are hard workers, this week we have Michael Costa (aka Michael Trixx) as the perfect example of someone who has been quietly doing it year after year. In fact, he has been working six nights a week for 22 years mostly in his outdoor venue “Lorelei Restaurant & Cabana Bar” in Islamorada,, Florida in the Florida, Keys. This conversation is a good example of a successful, self-made magician who works hard and learned to even work through this pandemic with live shows. Michael has always been a rock-and-roll magician, and although he has maintained his basic character, he has not been afraid to try new things and new opportunities.
Michael Trixx has been a long-time friend who has an interesting story that will inspire young magicians to keep working hard and how to find success. He also talks about working with doves outdoors and some stories about doves flying off and retrieving them, getting sponsors for his show, finding a venue, the benefits of working charity shows, the importance of competing in magic contests, and how to be bold (or as Paul Diamond used to say, “It takes guts, dammit.”)
