Pay to Play

[MaddMatt]

All:

I have been trying to research the Karaoke business to find a niche. I have not found any threads relating to a "pay to Play" or "Pay to Sing" approach.

Does anyone out there go to carnivals, town festivals etc and charge $1 for people to sing? For $2 you could give them a CD copy of their performance.

Think of how many people attend these things (5k-50k per day) and what they spend money on. Could you handle 10 people per hour over a 36 hour weekend? More?

I realize that you could make more doing a bar gig or private party with less work but if you are sitting at home making $0 or working a weekend making $750-$1,000 and handing out business cards/ making contacts would it be worth it?

I was just curious if anyone had tried it
