yes abraxus, it is rather good, especially for the eleven quid it cost you...

(sssh dont tell abraxus, but i bought this when he wasnt looking)

a close-up performance around a table with 6 people, cross the line of psuedo science/psychic ability...well, thought reading to be precise...

pretty much all self-working, it touches on pre-show for one effect, i rather enjoyed this, and will tinker around with 3 of the effects for sure to fit it into what i do...can't fault it really for the price...good quality dvd too..

imagine a more lecture style performance from a man who spent 20-odd years as a teacher mixed in with a subtle yet forceful osterlind style delivery...

good old fashioned mentalism...focusing on the story and patter... :D

(abraxus used to think he was schizophrenic but he's in two minds about it now... 8) )

Mandrake squire you seem to have changed your robes!.

Mr Abraxus this seems a nice dvd from what you say. How would it compare to stuff like the Paul Hallis (I think thats his name) dvd. All though I do like the fact you said he has Osterlind style about him.

I am master of misdirection, look over there.

We are not falling out young Welshy, we are debating, I think farlsy is an idiot he thinks I am one. We are just talking about who is the bigger idiot.

Well spotted! The black executioner's garb you refer to was created especially for use when banning/editing/locking and deleting - a lot of which has sadly been taking place in recent days. Once the situation returns to normal, my apparel will return to the usual nice ones :wink: !

what about the one with just a hint of suspenders eh? the one you should me late one ni...oh...said that out loud didnt i?

the guy's a teacher by trade, or rather was, and it shows...the teenagers that are his audience look a little "eyes front"...

paul hallas's stuff is excellent...i really liked some of the effects on Ross's dvd - i've personally been caught up on alot of psychological stuff recently, and it made a lovely break to just watch some fairly basic working stuff that gives you masses of leeway to present properly...

for a tenner, you can't go wrong as far as im concerned...runs to a little over an hour...the last 10-15 mins is him talking about mentalism in general...

i think jheff from here liked it too : http://www.marketplaceofthemind.com/Simply_Psychic.html
