Been going through a break up situation that I let get to me so I haven't gotten around to reviewing my copy so far, but last night I was out saw some girl walking on the street carrying a book, used elderly chat as we said hello to each other, talked for 3-4 minutes on the subject of the book (about crows), and that scientists believe that animals may have more consciousness than previously thought, and evolution human dynamics,...she asks my name, go personal from there, talk another 10 minutes about her life, pet shops and how I want to get a fish because it'll be like getting HBO for my cat, go through some of GALNUC (age, live, hang out) then I tell her she seems cool we should continue this conversation inside the bar...we go in, she opens up about her history as a masseuse wants me to be her guinea pig as I am a good but unskilled masseuse so she wants to teach me, anyway discussed lots of things while I was drinking a beer watching breaking bad on the bar television, she says she wants to give me her # because she'd really like to meet up again, comes in for a hug kisses and bites my neck as we part ways.

Anyway only used stuff from Day Game, and a little of my own personality.

Sounds like an interesting chat. I didn't see this in the book (maybe missed it), but the title is somewhat ironic. If you're actually looking for a girlfriend/cool chick to hang with (rather than just a bang), the daytime is the best time.

Unlike being in a club, where you want to use parlor tricks to get the quick bang, during the daytime, you can actually talk about mutual interests and make a genuine human connection with a woman.

It wasn't an exact example from the book it was the theory of using her prop to start an organic conversation from a girl walking down the street while I was sitting at a bar table after saying hello. Also the conversation took place at night and was pretty much the first time I used it.

Everyone is talking about elderly chat... can someone explain it or should I wait for the book?

Post: #57

I figured out how to open chicks in the daytime. It's simple. I kept my teasing and bedroom eyes aside, and asked a a neutral question. It was really easy. I was on my way back from the water store and saw this cute, tall asian chick on the phone. I eyed her for a second, went to my car then returned to open her. I had no idea what to say but she had that look that I knew I _had_ to say something.

I stopped 3 feet away and said, "Do you know if there's a gas station nearby?" She was on the phone, but didn't mind breaking away to talk to me. Then I called it "petrol" to see if she'd bite. She said I should drive 5 miles east, if my car would take me that far. She wished me luck and I left.

Roosh once recommended "Conversationally speaking" to improve basic conversation skills but I don't have a problem talking to people in general. It's conversing with pretty chicks where I could use a tighter framework. I've read about "attraction routines," and "cocky-funny", and "direct opening" and "negs" etc. for so long that I'd forgotten that basic good conversation is a powerful enough tool in itself. Gimmicks are just icing - they can't serve as the core of my verbal game.

I will never forget this line from roosh's blog:
'A year ago a man told me that all you needed to do to get laid was give a girl “good chat.”'

I am ready to go back to the blackboard. Give me Day Bang!

Good, basic conversational skills are the foundation. That other stuff is important too, but you have to a good conversationalist to make it all work.

I remember that line also. I love it.

Don't forget to listen also. When she wants to talk, let her yap.

Its talking like an old person would talk.... innocent, casual, non threatening, not personal.

It looks like Day Bang is available on Amazon, complete with a one-star hater review. I'm guessing this is the official version, and not the unedited version, since there is a fully detailed product description and sales ranking. Did Amazon jump the gun?

Hey Roosh,

Just bought the combo. Obviously I haven't read through it all yet, but just wanted to give you props for great customer service.

When I received the purchase confirmation email, the download link was missing for some reason. I sent an email to support, and within an hour, I had the links I needed and was able to download the PDFs.

I'm looking forward to diving in.

Cheers bro,

Hah. She left a hater review for all of my books.

On Amazon the final copy is now available.

As of today, 79 copies of Day Bang have already been sold on Amazon. I think that's a good sign.

Took me longer to get around to writing this than I hoped, but I guess it's just in time for the book to go on sale, so I don't feel too bad.

I was really excited to finally read Roosh's take on day game. (That's why I hit refresh about 1,000 times while trying to win it in the forum contest a few weeks back.) I was introduced to the concept by reading some of Jeremy Soul's stuff from Love Systems, and I've loved reading Krauser's uber-alpha take on it. It's funny though, as both of them focus on approaching much the same way you do in night game: walk around, see a target you like, and then go open her.

I tried it out for a bit and found decent success, but it seemed so forced, much like the whole Mystery Method of night game. I don't have the best game at night, but mostly my game is predicated on setting up what appears to be random bumps/introductions/questions, etc. As a result, it seems just entirely natural, and I've had many girls say that to me in bed afterwards, that they liked how I didn't try to pick them up - it just naturally happened (which is, of course, not true).

I didn't know what to expect from Roosh on this topic, but I'm already a big fan of his. His approach to game seems the least contrived of anyone out there. And after reading Day Bang, he cements his position as the guru for normal people. It is a method/philosophy that fits me like a glove.

I've always been an outgoing person, so the concept of the elderly ramble was not only hilarious, but something pretty close to what I do on a regular basis. But seeing it codified really hit home. Roosh focuses much more on situational pick ups than the street game so favored by others, and again, it just seems so much more natural. If I had to summarize Day Bang in one sentence, it would be "Day Game for Actual Humans".

I could really go on at length, but the book is worth it even if just for getting to understand the idea of the elderly ramble or to internalize the metaphor of girls as cats during the day (Every day when I'm walking around the city, my head keeps saying "Don't scare the cat."). At its core, he gives simple rules like this to keep in your head until they become unconscious behaviors. The first half of the book is basics like this, which culminates in "Galnuc". At first, I had no idea what that meant either - but after he explains it, it's like every other one of his concepts. A simple explanation and map for a reality you already knew existed but couldn't describe. Seriously, between the ramble, don't scare the cat and Galnuc - that's like 80% of the battle. And since I can internalize that quickly, I can begin to live in the moment, instead of focusing on mechanics.

I think this is Roosh's best gift. He's explaining simple fundamentals - things that no longer need explaining to him, as he has progressed well past them - however, despite his distance from such a beginner's mindset, he's able to lay out the structure in such clear and relaxed language. There's none of that boot-camp "Approach 1,000 women now, private!" bullshit, just some of the best writing style in all of the game community. It never feels like he's writing a book or talking from on high about how things have to be; you really don't feel his ego coming through the pages like you do with other game writers.

The book concludes with just a ton of information on how to succeed in some particular locations. From simple tips - to full-on diagrams of coffee shops and more. The breakdowns of each place let you begin to see how he thinks, and that is the type of learning that builds you into a more complete man instead of a robot with pickup lines.

Somehow, Day Bang wasn't at all what I was expecting. I had gotten used to the idea of day game being exclusively about street pickups. But after reading it, I feel like day game isn't some big thing I have to conquer, it's just going to become part of my life. Congrats Roosh. Job well done. And again, the writing style was so natural and flowed so well. You have honed a true skill.

Thanks Jersey! Great review.

Maybe its just a small sample size but holy smokes the girls I have used the Day Game structure on have been all over me about getting together. Good times.

Post: #66

I got the kindle version of Day Bang Saturday, and I'm 95% of the way through it. I noticed one typo so I imagine the final copy is pretty close to flawless.

My feelings are that Day Bang over delivers, but may be that's because so many books in the genre under deliver?

In Neil Strauss's "The Game", there is a map of girls sitting at a bar and some little arrows on how to approach them. After reading the story about it, you end up with a book filled with drivel and some attempt at being a great work of literature. Roosh's "Day Bang" was not written to become a Hollywood movie and actually follows up with it's layout maps.

Everything is very methodical, almost like a technical manual. However, unlike a 900 page novel on programming C++, the book will hold your interest all the way through. Part of the reason is because it sticks to a single topic -- picking girls up basically off the street (in the loosest sense of the term street.) Secondly, the book is entertaining. Every once and a while one of Roosh's side comments left me laughing out loud.

Very few writers can pull this off the way Roosh has. If you've read any of Tim Ferris's Four Hour books, they are how to books that entertain but feel like your author has a major attention deficit disorder. Rather than having the broadness of Bang, Day Bang tightens things in to focus.

"How To Casually Pick Up Girls During The Day" is exactly what the book is about, and when your done reading, thats what you are going to know how to do. Each chapter left me feeling like I had a pretty comprehensive understanding of the topic discussed. There is literly no fluff in this book. If my college textbooks were written like this, I'd have three degrees instead of none. At the very least, for a few dollars your going to be an expert at why a guy failed to pick up your girlfriend while you were walking in the park together.

While Roosh drops examples from "his students" regularly, you won't feel like the book is leaving out giant chunks of material that are only revealed at a $3,000 one day training seminar entirely run by students of the last event.

If your dating life story consists of taking girls out a bunch of times, and not getting laid, Day Bang is not going to help you. If you can close the deal once you have a phone number, I would not hesitate to buy the book and read it.

Well my review is long overdue, but I think a lot has already been said. Roosh does an amazing job with Day Bang, and I recommend it to anyone interested in improving their game.

Roosh threw a couple curve balls, there were moments when I was like really "elderly chat", "pet shop opener", and "GALNUC"? But it all services a purpose and makes sense in achieving the end goal. Everything Roosh does is so methodical and broken down, I truly believe that he is a genius in his own right.

One thing that really separates Roosh from the others is that he is a great writer, and he does an immaculate job of explaining things in a way that's easy to understand. He doesn't over complicate, but doesn't under do it either, it's like you're getting just straight golden advice from a good friend, or perhaps a "wise old uncle."

Uncle Roosh, has done us all a great service by putting his genius to work writing Day Bang, and offering it to us for such a great price. I am lucky to have gotten a free pre-release copy, but I will make sure to recommend to anyone I meet interested in improving their game to order it off amazon along with Bang.

I should also reiterate how well this book is written, and as usual Roosh sprinkles in his signature humor and sarcasm, which I appreciate, and may even have you laugh out loud for a hot second. There beginning of the book does a lot to help get guys into the right mindset and improve their inner game. Perhaps, the greatest thing I got out of the book, is how he structures conversation around "bait", this concept is great, and can directly applied to night game, as well as all social situations.

Post: #68

One thing that I should have added. Because of the conversation structures laid out, you now have the tools to tip any conversation with a female in your favor. This means any interaction with a female is always a pick up situation. Wish I had this book 8 years ago when I was a freshman in college.

This is as true as saying that all you need to beat Mike Tyson is to throw good punches, and move around a lot so he won't hit you.

August 23 is when I started the publishing process. That date will never change.

Both the paperback and Kindle are currently the final editions.
