Karaoke Forums

One of my singin buddys called up and his dad needs money for a liver itransplant so he is doing a benefit with karaoke and a band.  He knew before he asked if I would supply the system for both. Anyway I need some ideas the best money raiser I ever did was if everybody put a dollar or more in the bucket I would put on a womans nighty and sing satin sheets. Have only done it one time and  that was sober. He will be doing a silent auction and raffles and such...  Anyway we need some ideas One of the neatest things it will be sort of a reunion for all the karaoke singers in northern colorado..  It will be the 26th in Loveland Colorado...

I think that this post is obsolete now as your event looks like it's passed, but I thought I'd share this hilarious fundraiser I heard once:

You have people purchase tickets representing certain square sections of a football field or related large area.  Then on a specified day, you invite everyone to the field and bring with you one or more cows or poopin animals!  Whomever bought the plot of land the cow(s) poop on first wins donated prizes!  hhehehe

Maybe that's not exactly correct, but I thought that was the funniest thing...

*ahem*

Just a followup on that weekend It was on a sat which was many hours and true to form I got a call fri aft about 4 in the aft can u do karaoke tonight? Since it was a paying gig wouldnt make nothin tomorrow I said yes... Didnt get to bed till 3 am....

Pulled into Loveland about 1 in th aft it wasnt  wat I expected . It was a hall (elks club) for maybe 3- 400.  The stage was small with a bingo machine and stuff behind the curtain dont move that stufff.... It had lower stages on both sides of the stage maybe 100 to 150 feet . or 75... Knowing the main band would need room I set up with my Jbl eons at the extreme end of ther smaller stage areas., run a snake out to an area by the wall.. Started playing old country and adjusting ssytem  A little gal walked in her eyes lit up and said i got good system. Turned out  was the drummer for the main band..

Next thing I knew they were hauling in bins as big as my pickup... I asked hm wat he was usin for an amp maybe Lonman wud recognize it but I think he said Phonix 3000 (prob was a crown i dont know) As it turned out I played fill and karaoke between the bands setting up. There were three off the best bands around . At least one or two of  the band members came up and said you have a good system...I played at a normal volume and didnt have distorted reverbs bouncing between then walls When will they ever learn? But it was the first time when I competed with a good band system...Not braggin but i done alright they couldnt hear me acrioss the tracks....
