Marc is lecturing at Penguin this week, I for one, cannot wait.
The lecture covers a complete act, and looks intriguing. http://www.penguinmagic.com/p/5313 Tony |

It should be really good. Marc's material is always great and practical.

I am also very excited about this lecture.
I have his old Mind 2 Mind DVD which includes the AAA Book Test, he will be covering that in the lecture along with other material from that DVD which has been out of print for many years. I look forward to seeing that and his newer material. |

It is difficult to me to think that it works to some people, but if it is so. Good luck. By the way, I think Rich Ferguson's book test in the this is mentalism dvd is a much better impromptu book test than this one. |

It works really nicely, and is a great item to have in your impromptu arsenal. I can't explain your results with your mother. Maybe it was a fluke. I would watch the video again, and give it a few more tries. It's a great trick and worth the extra effort. |

I have use it in gigs for stage and close up, theatre, and casual work with great success. With proper acting and routining, is a powerful method. For your mother, the best effect for sure isn't performing, rather being a good son . Best

Will see you guys on the chat during the lecture!
The booktest sure will be interesting to learn, haven't seen it yet, but widuk, I would suggest you try performing it for laypeople who don't know you and focus on the presentation even more than the method. If it's what I think it is(from collin mcleod's AAA performance), then the presentation is 90% of the effect, and if they don't buy that they will burn you on the method like your mother.

It's not the same as Colin's - but Colin's is also very good. I like them both about the same, and have used them both.

One hour into the Marc Paul lecture and it is already awesome, as expected.
Highly recommended! |

I've always been impressed with Marc Paul's material, and tonight's lecture has only made me more impressed. Absolutely terrific. The material was strong, he shared so much practical knowledge (only learned from years of performing), and he's a clear, concise communicator. There have been so many terrific Penguin lectures, and still, Marc has managed to raise the bar!

Good workable material, but more importantly he gave great performance tips on things such as how to reveal a word for maximum impact. Penguin has been knocking it out of the park lately ... Atlas Brookings ... Looch ... Luke Jermay ... Marc Paul ... just in the last 2 months! All were great. I'm sure other magic stores are jealous, wishing they had come up with the Live Lecture idea first. This is a cash cow for Penguin and a great benefit for their customers. |

Didn't get to watch it yet. But I bought it, and you bet I'll watch it soon. It is really good to hear that the lecture was as great as expected.
