"Bring on those phat corporate gigs"

Postby Taro Toporific » Sun Feb 22, 2004 2:20 pm

mr. sparkle in 'bring on those phat corporate gigs!' wrote:$350 sure is a lot. but if you could book just ONE gig, it could easily keep bringing more mo' money mo' money into the pongi purse!

bring on those phat corporate gigs!


Ok, I just got a BIG corporate gig from some company drones that wanna put on a HUGE event to go with the company meeting in Sapporo. See below.

They need Taiko jamming Sparkle and strip-kimono dancing bimbos. Any ideas? Does anybody have a "production company" and wanna take this on??

gotta find the companies / located in SAPPORO who provide
drummers etc ie ENTERTAINMENT to pacify a bunch of HKG
honkies .... at some awards week fucking long ceremony!!!!

VERY very general ideas below (very kihonteki ni) so dont
think too much,...just as general ideas please see::

______________________
Below is a partial list of activities I am looking into.
Authentic,Japanese Style:
Acrobatics,
Magic,
Traditional Arts - such as orchestra, popular singer, any
kind of demonstrations (bicycles etc.)


EVENT schedule ...................................
Some ideas and guideline for you to think about

1st Night:

- 9:00 p.m.)
(2nd: 9:00p.m. - 11:00 p.m.)

etc.,)

decreation.

The 2nd Day Morning: Award Presentation Meeting

Marching In from the

idea, or you
can suggest another good idea to us.

atmosphere of the
party

The 3rd Day & Night: Free (Nothing to prepare for them)

May, and yes Brian did pass though Tokyo and el Rancherio Taro last week looking for JAPANESEQUE acts. If "somebody" wants to put together a JAPANESE package of entertainment for Hong Kong execs in Saporo in the first week in May.....

TRADITIONAL Japanese acts needed

How Japan-cheesy can you appear? Not much. It's gotta be JAPANESE talent and Mrs Taro the Koto Master has artistic issues about playing 600 year old koto music that no Japanese person would wanna hear.

>>>1 x Impressive Entertainment which fit the theme and

Hmm...impressive how? For a beer garden -Q-, I can't really picture something highly Japanese. Maybe a band?

>>>e.g. Modern music fix with traditional
Japan Opera<<<

THIS "fix" I gotta see. :p

Well, I can't help ya with the hookers or the ninjas, but I know where to find lots of Japanese dancers and musicians around town if they're not already working.

Now, you just need a producer. Hmm... :roll: j/k

Anyway, how many entertainers are you looking to hire? I can ask around anyway, if there are some definite details in place.

Main Point: I ain't hiring this
My mo-FG-than-all-of-you buddy Brian in Hong Kong is hiring this.
See http://www.artscmodels.com/actors/brianbanowetz/
banophotos@hotmail.com, brianbanowetz@yahoo.com <brianbanowetz@yahoo.com>

He needs a Japanese extravanganza with local talent in Sapporo (not Tokyo)... more than 4 people, fewer than 30.
