Music trivia night host wanted

Hi looking for a host for a new venture kicking off in early 2009. It is aimed at corporate clients for conferences, get together etc. It is not your little pub trivia night with a microphone and a speaker. It will only be aimed at Friday and Saturday nights. I work full time and just want to earn some extra money and have some fun. This is not your little production. The gear is worth up to $25,000. I don't keep count as it scares me. But there is pro lighting and sound and with the equipment I have the show can be totally flexible. For example I have 10 wireless microphones so one table may have to sing a song and then be followed by another table and a winner found. What I am not is a presenter. My role is to work all the sound and lighting equipment. I don't know who I am looking for to complete this role as I dont want to pigeon hole. You could be 18 or 80, Male or Female. What I want is an entertainer. The good thing about this role is I want someone to only work for 3 hours and be finished by 11pm which sure beats playing in a band and getting home at all hours of the morning. A singing voice would be good as karaoke is part of the night. I want someone who can be a star but also pull back because the premise of this show is to not have people sit on their asses bored out of their mind while one smartass on a table who knows the answers dominates the table while 9 people sit bored. It will involve them doing singing and dancing tasks etc to win points and make them the stars. I would even like to have up to 3 hosts who have other commitments as well to keep it fresh. These type of shows wont be booked the night before so some kind of schedule could be worked out easily. This is a paid position.

Hi Ro, I am very interested
