Also, some GOLDEN users have been sharing routine concepts with me. Really inspiring to see. That is one thing I love about GOLDEN: as a method, it's something different that will stimulate your creativity. One performer submitted a routine idea that I had never thought of - a "spectator as mind reader" effect of sorts. Can't believe the idea never occurred to me after years of working with GOLDEN. Cool. ;-) |

I guess the routine Robb refers to might have been one I suggested to him.
I performed this today in a charity show and the spectator who assisted me with the effect literally sat dumbfounded when she unfolded the appropriate slip of paper. It was a delightful moment. But even if the routine Robb was referring to was another one, today Golden has proved a real worker. |

Neil has given me permission to share his routine with GOLDEN purchasers. It will be posted to the hidden section of my website.
Also, in my email discussion with Neil, he asked the question is GOLDEN could be utilized for a "Just Chance" or "Bank Night" routine. That got me thinking and I came up with something that I love and will definitely be using in the future. So, this is part of what I hoped would happen with GOLDEN: those who bought it would bring new ideas to the table and stimulate my own creativity. Thanks, Neil! |

I have routines that use certain tools, and over the years I have replaced some tools with other tools. I just don't have anything here that would give me any clue as to whether these "tools" would be better than tools I am already using. KJ |

Quick review.
Arrived quickly. I am very happy with the purchase. So far I have used the first regular (not dead) routine and it work like a charm and I got a better and stronger response than I expected. Many of the routines are described for stage use, and I do parlor-sized so some reconfiguration will be needed. It is a good tool kit and I think that anyone that does classic mentalism will likely find new ways to use the tool(s) at some point. I would give it 4/5 "stars". The only improvements I can suggest, would be: 1. to work out about twice as many routines, for use in a variety of situations. I am sure it can be done and does appear to be in the works, but I have not seen anything new on the webpage yet. 2 of the routines will work for me straight away, the rest will require some thinking. 2. For the non-gold part of the device(s), I think it might be possible to fine one/some that are slimmer but just as effective. I saw some once but I can't remember where. If I do, I will send info for posting on the website. Not an issue for stage, but would help for close up. Don't get the wrong idea, as is works well, but I made some placement changes for my own use. With some more routines sorted, easy 4.5/5 "stars". . |

Correction, it was the "friends" routine that I tried first.

Regarding routines, there are at least two new routines that will be made available early next week... One from the Café's own Neil S. and another that I have been working on for awhile... A sort of "Just Chance" routine. Stay tuned! |

I am not often on the Café in the moment as I am extremely busy at the time and that will not change until Christmas... But I have to jump in here. If you really look how many endorsements I've given, you won't find many... for good reasons.
This is different for GOLDEN. It is in my honest opinion a very strong and versatile tool as some have stated already who are owning it. It is something that has the big potential to improve things you do already. I understand that for many it seems to be like buying the cat in the sack. Fair, but almost impossible to advertise it differently without giving away its secret. And for those who bought it: Even if you do not see an immediate use for it for the moment - just wait. It is one of these things you will use sooner or later, it is a tool good to have in your toolbox... And for those who own certain PM tools you will see already what you can do. E. g., use a paperback book (which you have used before...?... and which has hidden inside the PM tool) to collect the billets as you do not want to touch them, have somebody stay behind you covering your eyes with his hands... and you will find with ease whatever you want to...under impossible conditions. As some already stated, if you want to make some of your routines absolutely "waterproof" or to build up a beauty like sort of "under test conditions", then I do not see how you could be disappointed with GOLDEN. It is simply a great idea and a wonderful tool. Jan

However, word of mouth and very positive reviews from virtually everyone who has purchased GOLDEN have helped. I have been as open as I'm willing to be with the method(s) for GOLDEN, but really the purchaser *is* taking a small leap of faith buying it. I don't deny that. And I can imagine that *some* will acquire GOLDEN and find it is not their cup of tea. That's fine too but I think that would be the exception rather than the rule. I think even if I didn't include a single routine with GOLDEN (and I provide six with several more coming down the pike), most mentalists would be excited about the possibilities the core principle offers and get creative right away... It's just that different. |
