This page is to inform Kansas City area Karaoke singers of the contest we are currently involved in.
Winter/Spring 2010 ($1,500 CASH 1st Place)
Our annual contest will be held in at least seventeen bars around the Kansas City Metro area and be held 25-30 times each week (some bars will participate on multiple nights).
1st Place is $1,500, 2nd Place is $500 and 3rd is $250.
You are encouraged to win as many qualifying rounds you can, to increase your odd of winning a semi-final round, which will insure your spot in the finals. You can win multiple nights at the same bar also!
You must be present to sign up for each nights contest and the contest will usually start within an hour and a half of normal karaoke start time.
This years contest finals will be hosted by Harrah's North Kansas City Casino and will be held in the VooDoo Lounge. This venue is absolutely the most awsome place in Kansas City that you can imagine for a singing contest.
Wonderful accoustics, an imense stage, seating for 750 plus, designed for international singing artists and the best sound men in Kansas City supporting our singers. We pull out all the stops to make sure you have every opportunity to showcase your voice! Good Luck, and we will see you at Harrah's VooDoo Lounge on the 25th!
