I'm very interested in this - especially bases on Eric's posts who I trust a lot.
Probably going to pull trigger next week - anyone know how many are left?

That is a very nice compliment my friend. I very much appreciate it especially coming from you. I know you will not be disappointed especially when you see the reactions from the audience.
Good magic to all, Eric |

This came in the mail today. I am VERY pleased with this (thanks Eric).
Stefan, there is a difference in the way the mentalist reads the numbers off in the fact that he does NOT have to do that with the deluxe version. The spec can take the card and read the numbers off himself, or another spec can do so. Nothing for the performer to "cover" as it were. The trade off is that the envelope is not in the audience the entire time, but in a sealed envelope in the zippered compartment in the performer's wallet. I like this version better for stage, but it is a personal preference. This is perfect, though, for closeup/strolling.

Tony,
My pleasure. I'll tell you this too. You got this from an absolute gem of a man as well. Larry Becker is a man whom I admire and have learned a lot from. I've had the pleasure of speaking with him on the phone several times and I'll tell you his mind is sharp and you can tell the products he puts out are well thought out. I'm sure you will get a lot of milage out of this. I wish you the best my friend. Good magic to all, Eric |

This looks great.
Can I just ask if the performer needs to do any difficult math while performing though? |

Thanks, Eric. I have known Larry for about 15 years and as you say, he is a gem of a man. He has helped so many others out in so many ways, not only in mentalism. You will never find a better person! After some practice, this is going to my main testing ground...the pedestrian mall on Broadway and 34th St. I am looking forward to that!!!

Just picked this up. Let you all know when it arrives. But it's from Larry Becker. Can't go wrong.

I'm very tempted but would like to see it in action.
I don't suppose it is shown on any of Larry's dvds? |

Initially, I was excited to hear about this new revised version of "Some Total-Stage"....now I'm not so sure.
I have the same concerns that "Stefan" raised in an earlier post. ___________________________________________________________________________________________ On the "Standing Ovation" video: *the prediction is in the safe-keep of an audience member BEFORE the routine begins. *The WALLET is ELIMINATED, thus...ELIMINATING the "DBL. W" rouse. _______________________________________________________________________________________________ In this NEW $165 version: *the WALLET is back....and so apparently is too the "DBL. W" rouse. *the prediction ISN'T held by a spectator prior to the performance. * a TALKING Calculaor...REALLY? Can you say corny? How many people in the audience would OWN or WANT one? Also, anything "electronic" just smacks of suspicion. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________ So I beg to ask: WHY would I want THIS version? Perhaps a live performance DEMO CLIP would alievate my concerns. |

I have purchased it but more importantly I have followed larry Becker's career over the years. Entertainment is what it's all about. Talking calculator adds to it. Hey the marketing isn't akin to the governments forcing us to buy healthcare is it? No, its only offering us a product if we think it's of value buy it. If not let us buy it. No one's forcing you to buy it are they? I didn't think so. J |

Producing the list of numbers from a wallet under the magician's control doesn't seem as strong as having it in the hands of the spectators from the beginning, but there are no doubt some gaps and tradeoffs that I'm not clear on. - Scott

The STAGE version is the one where the prediction is in an envelope on a table or chair or suspended if you choose PRIOR to the numbers being called out by the audience. Larry includes this as a BONUS in the instructions. I will say this with NO hesitation---this is one of the absolute strongest effects I perform. This is so impossible in the minds of the audience. Everything and I mean everything you do is so well covered by natural momentum of the routine that it goes unnoticed. Larry explains this perfectly in his well thought out instructions. And please don't think there is a lot to do---there is not but what you will do is well covered. This is one of those effects that if I lost what I needed to perform this I would buy this with NO hesitation all over again. It will take you up a notch or two in your performance regardless of how novice or professional you already are. If I could only own 3 effects this would be one of them. There is no way I could recommend this highly enough!
Good magic to all, Eric |
