Pricing

NEW!- Stage 1 Sound accepts major credit cards!
As nice as it would be to display exact pricing, we can't. Each event we do is specific to your needs. We don't bother with "packages." We bring all of the equipment to your show. The size of venue and space allowed for us determines the amount of equipment that will be set up at your next event. It's tough to sell an "ultimate" package when you have chosen a country club and it won't fit! Worse yet, if you pay for it and it does not fit- you're wasting money.

There are many variables to the price, which are:

* Mileage to and from Blue Earth, Minnesota

* Type of event, and amount of time required to set-up and break-down the equipment.

* Desire for or against a light-show

* Time over 6 hours wanted. (All contracts end at 1am unless you or the venue specify otherwise).

A price quote given to you will include all fees. Rates may be $300-$450 for school dances and $500-700 for wedding receptions. Our price compared to the value is very high. There will always be 2 DJs running your event. You will be hard-pressed to find a DJ with the music, the audio power and lighting show we offer for less!

All wedding quotes include at least a 6-hours. Dinner music is always included. A wireless microphone for use with toasts and announcements is always available. We don't add extra fees for microphone use or dinner music. It is always included.

We always set up prior to the arrival of guests. Why?

* We need 2-3 hours to set up properly and neatly- so it isn't possible to set up after the meal and prior to the dance unless you plan on waiting

* We always do a sound-check at all volume levels including full volume (or as loud as possible) to hear how to best tune the system to your room

* Guests are more comfortable when the A/C or heating has brought the temp in the room to a comfortable level after we have had a door open while hauling in the gear

* It is rude to barge in during a meal to try and set up sound equipment

* We always play dinner music, so we must be set up prior to the dinner to be able to play it

Keep in mind that there is work involved outside of the event itself:

* Phone conversations, e-mails, contract etc: 3 hours or more

* Time spent ordering music and viewing your venue with the manager: 2 hours

* We typically leave for the event at 12pm, and usually are back home by 2am: 14 hours

Usually we have at least 19-24 hours spent working for you.

Plus there are additional costs to running any business. We have to keep up on equipment, insurance, pay for employees, fuel, new music, advertising, phone and internet, etc. A professional service needs to maintain all of these things. If you are considering entertainment that is less serious about working for you, you could be setting you and your guests up for troubles.
