Does anyone know what the Magical Castle is?

Try this link...it tells all about it.
http://www.la.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects...ccastle%2F7132

Originally built as a private home in 1908, the Magic Castle is the headquarters of the Academy of Magical Arts, a club made up of over 5,000 magicians. Part Disney's Haunted Mansion, part Friar's Club and part Vegas showroom, the Magic Castle offers up intimate performances and full-scale magic acts every night of the week.

It may take some doing to get a reservation for dinner--technically you can only go with an invite from a member, but most big hotels can get you in. There's a $15 entrance fee, plus the cost of dinner and drinks. The Palace of Mystery seats about a hundred people, and offers shows at 8:30pm, 10pm and 11:15pm every night. The Parlour of Prestidigitation, with six shows a night, is a much smaller venue that gets you close to the magician. Definitely check out W.C. Fields' trick pool table on the bottom floor, but also save time for the smallest theater, the 22-seat Close-up Gallery.

Since it's an academy, the Magic Castle offers a weekly, six-night class for $295 to adult beginners. Want to bring a little bit of the castle home with you? Pick up something from the gift shop, which you can visit without a reservation.

Unlike the rest of LA, the Magic Castle maintains a strict dress code policy, which means jackets and ties for men and cocktail dresses or pant suits for women. Jeans and sneakers are a big no-no, and don't even think about trying to sweet-talk your way in. You'll be turned away at the door.

I've been there! It was YEARS ago, in the late 80's, but I remember how cool it is! The skeleton hologram in the phone booth freaked me out!

I think you're right. However, I don't think that's what the person wanted to know, I think the question was something to the effect of "why the word Illume?" Which brings me to the candle issue

OMG...AMBER!!! I love and defend Stevie all the time but this is the funniest thing I've read (how come no on else commented on this?): In regards for Stevie's one wish (world peace), Amber wrote:She should've wished to have her range and mobility back...
I am a Stevie loyalist so I wouldn't have said it myself, but that doesn't mean I can't laugh my a** off if you say it, right?

I think she answered this last one pretty well

"Hey Stevie, I've thanked you over and over but, once again thank you for Scranton and Camden. Those nights changed my life. ok so for the question. What was the hardest song to perform (emotionally or phyisicly) on this tour?

Stevie's answer:

Hi Ashley! How are you? Say Goodbye, Beautiful Child and Goodbye Baby were all emotional songs for me to sing. Some nights were more emotional than others. "

You can! And i love Stevie so much, that is why I would wish for her to have those things back - I think she would be ecstatic to have those things as well.

That was a great question, and she did answer it pretty well. As usual, a little more elaboration would have been nice, but I guess we can't have everything.

The new Q & A is very good too :

"Question 122 - from Shannon Stevens in Portland OR:

Stevie, what was it like having Lindsey's neice on tour with you? We loved reading her tour diaries, she seemed to really adore you, and we were wondering how you felt about her? And will she continue to work for Fleetwood Mac now that the tour is over? Thanks for answering our questions!

Stevie's answer:

I absolutely adore Cory! Since we are no longer touring, she is not working for the Mac right now. But whenever I am on the road, she will always have a job if she wants it!".

I hope Cory will be in Stevie 's crew for the next tour, with her computer and ready to report.

Oh, on the contrary, I think she has excellent taste!
