What people are saying about The Cassette Deck

Steve Faulkner says...

I performed this for Helen my partner and she loved it earlier on and that's saying a lot not that she's doesn't love magic but you know she's honest with me and you've got this whole thing and you've got the handwritten which you don't have to write on by the way they're printed but they're handwritten um bands on there they're bands from different eras so you know it doesn't just to build one person you can talk them out there's going to be about that there's going to be bands that people haven't heard of but they're colorful and fun and they look great and novel and I think that's the disarming thing because they just look like a fun thing there's so much going on.
