I have got the simple Game Show Mania package, and it is working great!

If people have played it...they have loved it.

Once the ball gets rolling, people are anxious to play again and again, not giving me a chance to play filler music, which is good!

If you have not added this to your system, it works awesome.

Throw in some name that tune, and you have a great night ahead of you! Trust me!

I don't have video yet, but the FACE OFF package is going awesome.

Its a real simple setup, and it should run you about $1495 + tax I do believe. You would have to call and get the direct pricing.

I will definitely have to get some video, because there is a lot of funny people out there, and people can sit back and have a great time just watching from the sidelines.

I would recommend to use the book for a few shows, then after that I would create your own current questions.

Entertainment/Current News/Sports/Music/General/Funny..etc etc.

My guests seem to have more fun when they get credited for funny answers, and not so much the real true answers. LOL..sometimes people buzz in just to try say something funny...if it is good they get a point...if its not they lose a point. So its a risk they take!

But overall, its simple/clean/easy fun.

I've had it for about a month and I already have at least half my investment back! I am trying to promote this more less for a M-T extra income pickup. Most places are going to try Thursdays.

Of course this is one of those things that will be cool for a while..then like everything else it will fade out.

But overall, I havent really seen any drawbacks.
 
Also usually this game is played 2 on 2, and the winners keep going, just like in pool...the next competitors get to choose the next category to even the playing field. This has been absolutely fantastic.

I bet I laugh at least every 2 minutes all night long...sometimes it is impossible to regain composure from laughing so dang hard!

Out of 5 stars.....

Absolutely a 5
 
One of our local DJ buddies brought GSM to the area a few years ago. From what I understand, he's been doing well with it and has expanded. He sends out an email list every month with GSM updates.

Nice weeknight gig, really. Ya don't need to load a 6KW FOH system... it's background music and vocals, mostly in smallish venues.

It seems like a lot of paperwork to fuss with, though. Have you had any issues with the GSM paperwork?

You basically plug and play! It's really an easy concept. I hardly read any papers. I learn better by just looking at it...figuring it out. If I have something I am unsure of..then I usually just call a company to have them explain it in human terms. LOL...not the technical terms!

I spent an hour on the phone on Friday with Apple Tech Guy, and I was like..explain this to me in stupid terms..lol! I am not the brightest guy, as you can tell...I ask questions til I am comfortable with what is being presented!

I will probably upgrade my system in the future so that more players can join in. Definitely looks like a good future.
 
I just built my own face off system. As soon as I get it completed I'll post some picks. The only thing I need is a way to score. It has all the same buttons and flashing lights as GSM but it cost me less than half to build it. I also have the ability to use up to 4 players with this system. I can't wait to start using it.
 
Alright so far I have 15 Game Show nights booked from here until April.

I offered a super sweet deal so that all bars get a chance to see if this will work for them.

Let me tell you what this did for me or possibly

It looks as if every tuesday is booked for a good amount of time....
Bars that havent hired me before, now get a chance to get a sneak peek...
One manager of a bar, was just talking this morning at breakfast about a trivia night, and I just happened to call her on the right day......
Most bars would like to do 2x a month on thursdays, so I imagine all my thursdays are now booked in different aspects........
Since I dropped my prices for 09...two bars are considering working exclusively with me this year...
They will advertise in local papers, plus my name will be on ads in the bars......
They will give away prizes....which makes my profit increased......
New bars will have an opportunity to take a look at my other services.....


All this because of GSM and Karaoke.

So in Mid-April I can let you know what this can do for you!

I booked 1o shows already today...and more places are checking their calenders!

It has been a marvelous morning!
 
Update!

March/April has almost came and gone!

This works again..."FANTASTIC!"

I am getting more and more regular bookings. We have now started djing as well as doing GSM at new locations this year.

This little device really helped build our business and our reputation.

We just did a new location tonight, and even though the numbers were lacking, it still impressed everyone who played.

They would like to start something more regular, and they will increase the advertisements.

Granted we were doing well this year, this little game thing is really setting us apart from all the other local dj services. We get to ad lib, and people really get to see our regular personalities. It really is a great experience.

I really enjoy it. Even after this well dries up, it still was a fun investment.

But really, we will just keep upgrading so we keep getting the bookings. It easy to sell a service when you change something and make it more "interesting."
