This new routine (and tool) is an entertaining billetless performance script for casual mentalism contexts. Without billets or peeks, I have created a tool that you can use to tell someone the exact date out of 31 days a person was born. And the spectator does absolutely zero math in their heads. You need no calculators, no calendars, and no c$%bs. Rather, you just have a conversation about music. If you like to incorporate music themes into your routines and are interested in birthday reveals, I think you are really going to like this!
Effect in the Eye of the Spectator:
The spectator and performer discuss the power of music focusing on the #1 Billboard pop song from the year the spectator was born. Using the song as a key to the subconscious talents of the brain, you have two possible effects, depending on the spectator:
1. The mind-reader asks the spectator if she knows what day of the week she was born (Mon-Sun). She says that she has no idea. Using the power of the song from her birth year, the spectator becomes a mind-reader herself and miraculously determines the exact day of the week she was born. Or…
2. The mind-reader uses the #1 song of the year of her birth to nail the exact date of her birth. The spectator does no math, and she writes nothing down.
I have provided the mentalism community a brand-new Domesday tool for mentalists to use to create their own routines, and I have eliminated most of the memorization needed to perform using it. If you don’t have the Domesday Rule in your toolbox, this effect is a very simple introduction. Not only will you get a routine that you can use, but you can also use this as an exercise to master the Domesday Rule. If you do, you will have something you will use the rest of your performance life.
