How long is your show?

The show runs about 25 minutes on stage without any "add on" features outlined in the surprise options section. The Bus Boyz spend 15 minutes in the audience before the on-stage portion begins.

What time do you start?

The show can start at any time depending on your program. We suggest starting after the main course when your guests are settled.

Once the show starts, what is the timeline of the performance?

If we choose 8pm as an example show start time, the timeline would be:

• 7:45pm - The Bus Boyz enter room and begin pouring coffee, asking silly questions and making themselves visible to the guests.
• 7:55pm - The Fork Dropper takes a nasty fall on stage or in agreed upon area to get a quick reaction from the guests. Is he all right?
• 7:58pm - The Announcer takes the stage and declares there's a car with its lights on. He's requested to sing by a guest and begins singing.
• 7:59pm - The other Bus Boyz approach the stage from their places within the crowd and arrive on time to sing a big chord with the Announcer.
• 8:00pm - The show begins! Great harmony, dance moves, beatboxing, crowd interaction, a flip and one high energy show.
• 8:23pm - The Bus Boyz have the crowd on their feet for one final song.
• 8:26pm - The Bus Boyz take a bow, exit the stage.
• 8:27pm - The Bus Boyz return for an encore.
• 8:30pm - The show ends.

This timeline will vary if additional options such as improv requests, audience plants or the breakdancing manager are added.

Do you use any instruments or tracks?

No. Everything you hear is created by the human voice. Entirely a cappella. Yes, even the drums.

Are the Bus Boyz actually service personnel?

We leave the table service to your very capable wait staff. The Bus Boyz will be stopping by the dinner tables for quick interjections and silly questions, but not for actual service. The Bus Boyz are also very aware of your servers and will keep clear of their duties.

Is an additional fee charged if any of the "surprise options" are added?

Our surprise options require a small additional fee. Please inquire with your event representative about pricing.

What songs do you sing?

The Singing Bus Boyz perform recognizable, fun, upbeat pop tunes that are chosen to fit a wide range of ages, tastes and entertainment styles. In addition to being great tunes, they also serve to get your audience up on their feet and having a great time!

Can I choose the songs?

We have a great "requests" show in our surprise options section of the website. It's a great way to get your crowd involved.

Can you use corded mics?

We can, but it changes the show a bit. We prefer cordless.

Is it always the same cast of singers?

Depending on availability, yes. The show is, however, currently being developed in five major U.S. cities and those casts will be available in 2008.

Can you sing off-mic?

No. The show requires that the group be fully amplified.

How many people travel?

Five singers — ahem — Bus Boyz.

What will you need for sound and lights?

Please view our tech rider on the Media A/V page. It's a relatively simple setup.

What do you wear?

Black pants, shoes and shirt with a collar. White ties (as seen in the photo).

Can you wear something else?

We've also got access to white shirts with black bow-ties. If you've got specific needs for attire, we can give you our sizes to provide outfits for the event.
