The deal with all this bloody stuff I carry!
 

Hola!

Right I've got a situation...

All this bloody stuff I'm carrying around with me,

Small camera (photo routine)
Lipstick Chart (opener)
pen, pencil, small notepad,
cover stick, mouth spray, clear nail polish (no im not a fag girls i discoverd notice this stuff!)
Tissue, pack of connies, couple magic tricks, wallet, phone, keys
and probably other stuff I've forgotten

Well where to flippin put it all, I've actually given up with pockets now, i cant remember where half the stuff is when I need it so then I looked at these bags for guys... or better still a "MANBAG" what the hell are they all about...

I reckon it will scream "gay or weird" when I walk in to a set... given I've modelled myself on David Beckham now with the short hair, ears pierced and expensive looking clothes... (key word - 'looking' thats a what a evening diloma course in fashion design does for ya :P)

Any thoughts on this? What do you guys do? (or is there were people go "i dont have none of that" and I look like a muppet LOL

I looked at some of these "outdoor" shops and they have pouches mainly like black nylon that sits on the belt which I think could work as its discrete and all in one place.

Wallet, phone and keys, that's it!

As style says; Is better to look GAY or SINGLE?!?!?!

sinstyle.

I guess going in looking Gay has it's plus side - The AMOG's dont percieve you as a threat and its a well know fact girls always say that gay guys dress better...

I've not heard that one before though from Style, so my answer would be to look gay and come in under the radar so to speak

I know how you feel mate, I ended up with three packs of cards (trick decks) Runes, Psi Deck of cards, thumb tip and silks, camera, wallet, keys and other assorted items. I gave up and started again. Now I have 10 PSI cards, PK ring, wallet and keys... Some PUA's I hang with have man bags, I personally like to travel light.

Presto,

An interesting read, that reminds me of when I used to work weddings and restaurants doing close-up. Trying to remember which deck was which, I'd generally just pull one out read the flap and think, hmmm what tricks do I know with a brainwave deck then LOL

I'd be interested what to know what tricks you perform for the targets and groups?

I read Mystery's ESP routine and although Style and everyone says it got good responses I can't imagine anything worse, surely people would call you on it saying well you had a 1 in 10 chance"... I'm starting to learn Derren Brown's 'paper scissor stone' routine although its a slow process.

I think as a result of this post ill get a belt bag like what I've seen on military websites as theyre only about £8 in black, give it a crazy new look with coloured stitching or attaching emblems or something cool...

i place my id's cc's in my small shirt pockets for ease some cash in my pockets. my cheap black ops phone, which is soly for purpose of sarging, also works as a back up phone, but its small. and thats it works for me.

There I was thinking the next part was "pray" when I saw church!

LOL

Cool responses, can't wait till my game is as good that I don't need gimmicks

I wear a manbag regularly. Most of the time I'm e.g. out shopping, I have one.
I prefer to wear it as i prefer it to having everyting shoved in my pockets.

ALSO - it is my personal #1 opener which has NEVER failed. Whether I wear one or not "Do you think manbags are gay?" has never failed to open a set - they nearly all will say no, and then you elaborate on experiences where friends call you gay for having it (many).

My advice to you is - Instead of using all these props, how about just the essentials (phone, keys, wallet) in the man bag. You won't need any routines because you have your kick ass opener :). Just remember to give me credit! :D

I'd like to say just carry the basics but I have a penchant for appearing unique. I use a 'manbag' but its homosexuality is destroyed by its ultimo manly design(link at bottom :D). Its good stuff really cos it can be used in loadsa ways as well as just being practical. E.g. It gives girls an easy opener, a bailout card if convo starts to die(whats with the bag)and it can also be a good way to start a routine.

Example: I was in Gibraltar and all night people were like, whats with the bag and I was like "I'll show you later" so eventually when it arose in a group conversation I done a cheap magic trick with postit notes and it was epic success.

There's loadsa shit you can do with a bag, like if it has nothing of value you can tell a girl to hold it to keep her bound while you do something else. Also its a good place to store mints, postits(with loadsa numbers on) and shizzle and most importantly it can be a talking point while attracting attention and interest. Just like get a bag that can start a convo and make sure it suits your style
