Singing Waiters In Canada Thrive With A Live Band

By request, a repeat client recently the booked the Singing Waiters in Vancouver, B.C. for a private corporate event.  This was a pretty special evening as the group was asked to “mix it up” with 4 performers and sing with a live band.  The Waiters, along with the fabulous 6 Piece Band surprised guest and rocked the swanky Cotton Club setting for 150 guests with Old Hollywood Standards like “Orange Colored Sky”, “Luck Be A Lady” and “Someone To Watch Over Me“.

Here’s a brief snippet of  “Someone To Watch Over Me” sung by our fabulous Soprano.

This is a great way to entertain your guests if they’ve already seen Singing Waiters.  The Amazing Waiters can either wear the server uniforms or don Tuxedos and formal wear for a more elegant evening.  What started as a singing waiter group has now evolved into full-fledged stealth entertainment, customized for each individual event.

Old Hollywood Entertainment With A Modern Twist

Latest Trend: Old Hollywood

Are we late in labeling it? Old Hollywood has returned! Everywhere we seem to turn, days of yore are popping up. Everywhere from TV with Mad Men, to the resurgence of Rat Pack shows (Vegas) to clothing styles on the Red Carpet. It’s everywhere.

Is the public following or leading this trend? Traditionally, trends are set by media and followed by the general public. But is the tail wagging the dog here?

The Amazing Waiters have a great Rat Pack Show.

Relaxed and Entertaining.

Style Never Goes Out Of Vogue – Permanently
There an old saying, “If I hold on to it long enough, it will come back in style.” (God help us if the feathered back hair style re-emerges) and if you’ve lived long enough in this World, you will see that History does tend to repeat itself, even in fashion.

We have to say, we like Old Hollywood. We like almost everything about it. We even patterned a show after it. The reason. It’s cool. It’s retro and people still love good wholesome entertainment.

Old Hollywood is the epitome of style and class. It’s hard to think of another Era that can rival it. 1927-1963 is generally the accepted span of its hey day. Starting with the end of the Silent Film Era and starting with the film “The Jazz Singer” (1927). Nicely detailed by film theorist, David Bordwell, Old Hollywood was the second boom of American Cinema. The first being Silent Movies. Bordwell’s detailed chronicle is worth some reading if you have a good weekend.

It’s not hard to understand why this type of old school entertainment still is desired today. Dean Martin, Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis Jr. had it goin’ on!

Live Entertainment For All Ages

WHOLESOME ENTERTAINMENT

It seems to be harder to find wholesome entertainment these days. We’re not talking about animated features (that’s a whole other subject) but live Entertainment that’s appreciated by not only the younger audiences but the parents as well.

Wholesome Corporate Entertainment

Too much to ask in a corporate setting?

It doesn’t take one long to sit and realize that entertainment has changed radically over the past 20 years. Most “entertainment” now must include potty humor of some kind as well as a lot of pop slang that is here today and gone tomorrow (again, another story in itself)…

Live Party Entertainment fit for all audiences

So here you are. On a corporate outing. You’ve done well this year and you got a few days on the company’s dime to network but to also R&R with the kids at some swanky resort. You end up at the main party, culminating your stay, and during your dinner, a comedian appears…Your 9 and 13 year olds are with you…you’ve noticed a few other co-workers have theirs there too. The show gets a bit racy and you’re forced to make a quick exit to avoid any potential birds and bees questions later in the hotel room. Night over with no desert.

One of the most overlooked demographics of a corporate party (and corporate acts) are our younger attendees. We wonder why so many acts out there are so oblivious to their audience. One reason is that they have “set shows”, meaning that their script or song list is set and it cannot be changed once they are on site. No flexibility can kill a night.

Event Solution Entertainment

If you are an event planner or planning an event, one thing to ask an act like a comedian or specialty live act you are considering, is “Do you have a clean show?” or tell them “We have a wide range of party-goers at this particular event, do you have age appropriate material?” You can gain a lot of information as to what’s said next.

Live Entertainment in a Corporate Setting

There are many live corporate acts very suitable for wide age ranges. If you ask the right questions, you’ll find entertainment that will make all of your guests happy.

Two Singing Waiters – Amazing Waiter Entertainment The Manly Way

Two Amazing Waiters.  When 3 singing waiters are too many and 1 is not enough.

Meet the Two Amazing Waiters!

The Two Amazing Waiters

Two Singing Waiters Entertain for Corporate & Private Events.

Out of the Singing Waiter tradition, this spectacular duo of performers can entertain any guest count.  And, as all of our shows, this one can be acoustic up to about 20 people, depending on size and room dynamics, eliminating microphones!

 NOTHING COMPROMISED

The Two Amazing Waiter shows can range from Jazz Standards to Opera Classics and everything in between.  Have a music theme idea?  If not, here are a few to consider:

* The Rat Pack:  Music from the 1960s sung by Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin.  Black suits, thin ties.  It’s Mad Men that sing.

* Opera Divos:  Want some attitude?  Operatic Flair?  This show brings it to the “nth” degree.  Opera attitude and Operatic Singing that will not only impress your guests vocally, but there is a fair amount of fun dialogue that stereotypes this genre.

The Bond Men:  James Bonds (yes plural)…if one Bond is good, two must be GREAT.  Get a one-two punch with elegant guys that sing the hits from Bond.  Crank up the testosterone!

Uncompromising entertainment by the best Broadway and Operatic Performers available!  These shows are always specifically written for you and your event.  Whether it’s a Corporate Function, Meeting, Wedding Reception, Private Party or Fundraiser, The Amazing Waiters provide the best options at the most desirable price point.  We are looking forward to hearing from you.

The Amazing Waiters in San Diego, CA

This past weekend, the Amazing Waiters performed at the famed Hard Rock Hotel  in San Diego, California for a small group of very appreciative execs with a well-known cable company (Rock on Ladies and Gents!).

The 25 guests went with a Casino/Old Hollywood Theme having roulette, cards, black jack, craps with a lovely Marilyn Monroe look-alike adding to the theme. The Amazing Waiters, of course, were in waiter garb, one as the Assistant Catering Manager and the other as a good ole’ waiter, passing trays during the gambling and festivities, blending in giving great face time and getting acquainted with the guests.

Marilyn presented some awards with the CEO, dinner came out and then it was showtime!

James started this show with a funny schtick about music and the history of the Hard Rock and immediately went into Elvis’ Blue Suede Shoes.  Of course, as most of our Waiter shows go…there is some chaos as to whether it was a show or not (and that’s the way we like it) while they sang hits from the Rat Pack and Old Hollywood Era!  Allie, our lovely latest addition to the singing waiter family, wowed the guests with some amazing renditions of “Diamonds Are A Girl’s Best Friend” made famous by Marilyn, of course, and “Fever” which was a highlight of the evening, later joining James with a duet of “Fly Me To The Moon” and an encore stunner, Lady Gaga’s “Poker Face”. 

The Hard Rock has some lovely rooms with large wall art of famous Rock artists.  Our green room, for instance, featured the famed Jim Morrison

The Amazing Waiters as a duo in San Diego, CA

from the rock band, “The Doors”.  We couldn’t resist taking some pics with Jim looking over us.  The girls had to have some more shots with the rock legend, proving that his allure with the opposite sex is still pretty darn strong.

For more information on this show, we invite you to visit our Facebook page.  For more information on some cutting-edge performance options using one, two or three Amazing Waiters, visit our website,  www.AmazingWaiters.com

We look forward to hearing from you!

How Will Facebook’s Latest News Feed Affect You?

In the business world, Facebook is struggling.  Stock prices have been lackluster and many investors fear that the giant simply can’t make money.

Today, Facebook announced its latest update, a new and updated look of its news feed.  It’s the latest effort by the giant social network to get its 1 billion users to spend more time on their site and to get advertisers to spend more money on you while you do this.

Since its big update in 2011, the News Feed claims the most valuable real estate on Facebook. It’s where users check out status updates from their friends, businesses, celebrities and other stuff they “like.” So Facebook is looking to make it more engaging and relevant amid signs that the younger set are not as glued to the service as they once were.

What can you expect?  Splashy bigger pictures and richer media.

Many have not liked the New Feed but it’s Facebook’s most popular feature and, as it looks, will now be able to get advertisers more real estate to get their messages across.

If you are an advertiser, it might be a good time to try a stab at your demographic.  If you are a Social Butterfly and want to see what your friends are up to?  Well you may not like being courted by advertisements and advertisers.

The Amazing Waiters X3 in Phoenix, Arizona

This past month, The Amazing Waiters were in the great city of Phoenix, Arizona performing for a very appreciative (and large) group of banking professionals.

The show was through-scripted and customized from top to bottom.  It included several quips about their brand, why they were there and who and what happened during those few days of work and play.  CEO’s and Bank Presidents can be a tough crowd from time to time and that’s why it’s nice to be flexible in how our shows are presented.  It can mean the difference of indifference and memorable!

We posted the highlights of the show here in a video.  The Phoenix show musically, ranged from Broadway (West Side Story) to Opera (Nessun Dorma).  The variety of our musical programs never stops to shock guests.  But then, we only use major Broadway and Operatic talent, negating the possible vocal blooper that can happen with some of the other acts we’ve encountered.  Ouch!

It was great to be back working for one of our favorite clients and look forward to taking over Phoenix again soon!

If you have a group of hard-to-please conference go-ers, contact us 855-899-7701.  We have ideas!

The Amazing Waiters – an original made in the USA

Our group originated in the good ole’ USA. 

Amazing United States Singing Waiters

There are no other Singing Waiter Acts that do what we do in the USA.  Get the original made in the USA.

A little known factoid is that the Modern Singing Waiter act was a collaborative effort between hotel owners in Western Europe and some singing waiters in a little restaurant in the Hollywood, California area around 1987.

Upon seeing the value of bringing “foreigners” to Europe, the hotel owners (a group of owners) decided to do a test run.  The following Winter, history was made, The Singing Waiter group in all their American splendor and American charm, plopped down their music binders and began honing their shows in front of live audiences.  Armed with medleys from Broadway Shows and Operatic Arias, the 5 singer group sang acoustically in smoke-filled rooms for hours each night.  The live pianist played and played…and then when the night was over, they did it again the next night, serving up quality Broadway-Styled entertainment to Europeans who had only, in many cases, listened to their tapes of Broadway shows.  This was unique, cutting-edge and the first of its kind on a large scale.

As time went by, the European Economy changed, flights got more expensive, hotels weren’t booked to capacity and the Singing Waiter tours got shorter and shorter.

It was then when two men, named James and Doug, decided to bring the Original Singing Waiter act “home”, to the US.  So in 2007, after a 20 year successful European run and thousands upon thousands of performances, this singing waiter act came home to the USA.

It was an interesting time, there were several copy-cat acts…some with a modicum amount of success and even others that falsely claimed to be the “original singing waiter act” (and still do, unfortunately).  So, in the midst of all this, the group retooled its own act and set out to reacquaint US event party planners, booking agents and Americans with the real original Singing Waiter act!

The group retained it’s original  5 person/performer shows in the European-Style they created and with the leadership of James (one of the partners), co-created The Amazing Waiters, a Singing Waiter Act, in the tradition of the original group but offering a maximum of three singing waiters performing highly-customized shows at very desirable price points.

There are still copy-cat acts out there, many of which, ironically were not created in the United States (some actually from Europe).  The only way to know that you are getting the original, is to go to the website, here.

Get the only US-Branded Singing Waiter Group with the lineage to prove it.
