This is solid. I have 20+ years performing and I'm jaded with so many new routines and tricks. But I like this a lot. Why? Because it's organic, ends clean, uses some confidence and skill (no "gizmo's") and plays with my particular style and strengths.

This routine is fluid, justified and meets my standards for "organic" magic: ready-to-go, streamlined (for the most part, see my note), justified and clean nearly all-around.

If you're familiar with getting information with business cards (or index, or whatever) you may not need something new. On the other hand for the same reasons you may want to add this to your available tools/tricks in the arsenal.

I will, starting today as I test it out.

I enjoy Dan's presentation (I love his confidence and enthusiasm for this trick) This is just a personal preference, but I don't like pretending I have powers of one kind or another. This isn't unique to this trick of course. And my answer is to this is stupid, my it makes me feel better.

For a lot of my tricks I just say, "I can't really do this (or that), or I don't have this power, but if I did, I think this is what it would look like." Silly, sure, but the one line and the way I present it tongue in cheek allows me to feel comfortable with such presentations as these (including the one he uses here).

There is "handling" but it isn't excessive. It fits absolutely into the routine as presented with no wasted moments. So if you like the routine, you'll love this trick. You just need to be comfortable. It is far within the realm of anyone doing these kinds of routines where you gather info in similar fashion (and in this case it's a great way to get the info... no stress for time, angles, etc).

If you like what you see in the trailer, you won't be disappointed. It's quite good. Thanks for sharing Dan.
