“Are the folks in your group going gaga over American Idol?”
Right now, with times being so stressful
for many people are looking for a fun way
to blow off some steam and have a good time. If you are part of a group, be it a school,
church group or civic organization, that
fits into this category, why not hold your
own Idol-style contest?
Most of us have seen, or at least heard about
the “American Idol” reality show where contestant sing and
perform, completing against each other for
a chance to be crowned the “American Idol.” It’s good, clean fun that kids and adults
alike enjoy.
Well, an "Idol"contest is nothing
more that a Karaoke contest!
The contest provides the stage, background
music and vocals and the "contestant"
sings the lead vocals. (Of course, when you
are preparing for weeks to perform in front
of a national TV audience, you don't read
the words off the screen, you learn them
by heart.)
If you are looking for a fundraising event
that's good, wholesome fun your whole group
can get involved with, why not sponsor your
own “idol” contest.
Imagine the fun that your participants and
your audience will have!
This event could be just a fun night all
by itself, or it could be in conjunction
with another event, like a Project Graduation. Or if your group or school class is like
most, you may need to raise money for a trips
or a special project. Why not run your “Idol” night as a stand-alone
fundraising event and raise money via ticket
sales to an event everybody will love? You can accept "contestants" form
any and all age groups, too.
We can provide you with everything you need
to make your event a success! We provide a Professional Grade Karaoke System
with 10,000 songs (something for every age
group) for your participants to choose from!
The unit we provide is a $10,000 dollar Professional
Grade System built around a custom computer
system and should not be confused with inexpensive
kiddie units that are sold for few a few
hundred dollars at Kmart. Our systems are complete and do not require
costly, hard to find cassettes and/or CDs
for individual songs. Also, since our equipment is made for use
in a professional environment, it can easily
be tied into your auditorium’s sound system.
If you don’t have a sound system in place,
we would be happy to provide you with concert
speakers. Our systems can use either wired
or wireless microphones, depending on your
performer's preference.
Our system even allows the recording of the
performances! Think of the additional funds
you could raise when you pre-sell CDs of
the evening’s winners or entire performance
for additional fund raising profits. We can even handle the bulk duplicating of the CDs
for you – all you need to do is take the
orders and make the deliveries.
Along with the system, we can also provide
a technical advisor to be on-site during
your rehearsals and events. Our technical advisor knows the system inside
and out and, if you so desire, can also act
as your emcee.
The entire list of available songs can be
downloaded off the web so participants can
plan their performances ahead of time. We
will also provide you with printed copies
that your participants can preview prior
to your event.
All you need to do is supply the stage, promote
the event and sell the tickets. Karaokepartyrentals.com handles all the technical
details!
