Ready for a fun game celebrating the originality of songwriters? /s

Your group is bound to get a kick out of this game. Of course, it would be perfect for a baby shower, it is fun for all crowds of all ages.

Note: mildly explicit lyrics in some songs, such as "Baby Got Back" by Sir Mix-A-Lot. However, this is pretty mild by today's standards. You are bound to hear worse cursing on an average Netflix episode or presidential debate...

Zoom: Video Conferencing

Meet - Google

Many of our users have taken the initiative to create online events in the wake of covid-19. Here is some great advice from Jen M:

"We have had so much fun! It’s given us something to look forward too!

"For the family and friends that live in the same city I print all the cards (making sure I am washing my hands and bring isogel) I drop off cards in their mailboxes which was a very exciting outing for me lol. For the ones further away I emailed them and they either printed them selves or hand wrote out their cards.

"Each week we have used the theme of the bingo along with decorating area that we are playing in along with hair styles and costumes. We use the zoom app and using a mixer and a good quality mic along with iPhone directly into computer so the sound is great for all playing. Most of the players use their phones and use either Apple TV or a lighting cord to put up on tv so we can see everyone.

"We are very lucky my dad was the morning man for the radio station for 35 years plus a dj back in the day so this isolation along with you guys has brought him out of retirement!"

Thanks so much Jen for allowing us to share your experience, and to help others! You are a true supporter of Live Entertainment!

With the current situation of the world we continue to need to look to the future, and what the future has in store for our trivia shows and live entertainment. I am writing this on a Trivia Tuesday, but bars & restaurants are not permitted to open in my location, and this is the same for many cities, and perhaps from where you are reading this.

We have seen many requests for online tools to host trivia events using live streaming, so I thought I would take the time to compile my favorites here for you. You should be able to utilize any of our FBT PowerPoint Presentations to screen share and work with these tools, as well as our newest game Triv101 (currently in beta-access) "Survey" style trivia party game.

Music Bingo is a little bit more difficult to play online. You can share streaming services by allowing multiple people to listen to the same Spotify account, but in order to distribute cards, you will need to send them out or have everyone print their own cards beforehand. Perhaps you can send out the cards to each persons computers and have them "dob" off answers on their individual screens, but this can be a lot of work to set up for guests too. If you have attempted Music Bingo online yourself, please let us know how it went in the comment section below.

If you haven't heard about Zoom already, you're gonna. It is quickly taking the market by storm with its easy-to-use platform and screensharing service. It is free to use for up to 100 participants, but it does have a premium add-on for up to 500 participants. This is a good place to start if you aren't super tech savvy.

Google is offering a free upgrade, currently, and you should be able to get 150 people on the same call at once. This might be a good option for you if you already have all your contacts within your Gmail.

This is my personal favorite option for sharing your trivia content right now. It's free to join, and you can easily begin taking donations and gaining paid subscribers to your stream. While they don't yet have a category specifically for Trivia, I think we can work together and get them to change that. There are several other option that will work in the meantime, such as Twitch Plays or Just Chatting.

This is Microsoft's new answer to live streaming. While there are not near as many viewers as Twitch or YouTube, this is a nicely laid out platform with everything you need to make an income online for your guests

YouTube is kind of hard to navigate and doesn't categorize too well yet, but it does have one of the largest viewer bases to work with. If you are planning on opening your trivia show up to the world, this could be an option for you.

Could be OK if you are into that sort of thing. I don't enjoy Facebook's marketing algorithms, and find them a burden on society... but whatever. To each their own.

This option was built mainly for online meetings but is easy-to-use and fits our needs nicely. Free for up to 10 users or 250 with their pro account. Not bad at all

Bigscreen VR

I have hosted dozens of trivia events using Bigscreen VR and it is quickly becoming one of my favorites. The experiences you can have interacting with guests in virtual reality is far greater than you will find with any other platform. You can have players draw their answer in 3d, raise their hands, and even have a dance contest!

You will be limited by how many people have the gear to join your event right now... but one day soon this will be THE way to host your virtual trivia night.

Thanks for reading. You're the best. Once again, thanks for supporting live entertainment.

​Get your green shirt, hat, undies, and socks ready. It's that time of year again!

Good news is, we have you covered for your all your St. Paddy's Day Trivia Party needs. 

Just like all of our other Music Bingo Games, the St Patrick's Day Music dobOFF Cards come with both 60 count and 200 count PDF files. Simply download and print as many cards as you will have guests for your event. 

It is recommended to print your cards and a thicker stock of paper. Use "landscape" settings to print them properly in the horizontal format. Pro tip: BUY A STACK OF GREEN PAPER BEFORE PRINT.

You can also ask to see the color selection at FedEx, if that's where you get your printing done. Bonus: They can cut a giant stack of sheets in a cinch for only $1.50 a cut! I highly recommend this. 

Plenty of Irish songs and songs about beer!
Randomized bingo cards with Free Space.
Up to 200 Cards! - 29 Songs, 1:48
(We recommend playing 60-90 seconds of each song)
Go for a Line, 4 Corners, or a Blackout!
Easy-to-host games!
​Follow the music playlists and go: Spotify - Amazon Prime - Apple

Interactive Trivia "Game Show" PowerpointPresentation. Perfect for St. Patrick's Day, but also fun for any other Irish or Beer themed event of the year.

Congratulations on surviving another year.

I hope you all had fantastic holidays!

There is a lot on the docket for 2020, so let's jump right in!

We now have over 30 music bingo games available in the Trivia Store.

The best deal per game and top option for recurring trivia shows is still the Music dobOFF Gold Pack.

However, you will notice the total numbers of games included has jumped up to 33 games at once!

The Silver Pack is also updated to include a compilation of the Top 20 games played from 2019.

(The Bronze Pack hasn't changed, and still contains only the Top 10 music bingo games.)

...hosting trivia nights in-house. For most small businesses, hiring entertainers (like me) is not feasible on a regular basis. Hey, I still suggest ringing me up before the holidays and discussing a potential show, sometimes I just want to try something new, and see how it goes. Probably for a heavy discount. This is how the Bold Missy Brewery Drag Queen Game Show Night arose (so much fun) among many others.

So, the answer is simple. Download the same games I use at my events, and host it yourself. That's why we made the games the way we have! They can be easily reproduced and customized for your event.

Each pack of music bingo cards come in a .pdf file that you can print off as often as you choose, and however many cards you require for the event. The default number of cards in a pack is 60. However, with you purchase, you can request however many cards you need generated. We'll get back to you during regular business hours with a fresh file to download with exactly the number you need.

You'll also find pre-made playlists on Spotify, Apple Music, and Amazon Prime Music.

Music Bingo is a good option for those that don't want to connect a Big Screen. Print off as many cards as you require, and play music from the accompanying playlist. You can always purchase Bingo Daubers, as well, or just use markers.

Try giving out prizes. I am not a fan of cheap plastic gifts, that are little more than garbage. But a few nicer gifts, or gift certificates to your establishments are always good options.
