Some clients request that the program be opened by David pretending to be a “subject matter expert” in their industry. Perhaps he can “roast” your dignitaries. He can also serve as a very funny Master of Ceremonies. He can also perform a non-customized comedy show as a second show for your event. Save money by using David for several functions at the same event.
The pre-show research places little or no burden on your staff or members. A few efficient telephone interviews usually take care of everything. The program requires very little in the way of audio-visual setup. For the musical portion of the program David “wears” a battery-powered musical keyboard around his neck on a strap. The keyboard is easily connected to the same sound system as the microphone.
Audiences especially love the song parodies that close every program.
The national Mail Advertising Service Association enjoyed “Mailhouse Shlock” (to the tune of “Jailhouse Rock.”)
- “Secret Agent Man” became “Compensation Plan” for AT&T.
- “(A) Norwegian Would” was a twist on the popular Beatles tune for Norwegian Cruise Line's sales staff.
- Another Beatles tune, “Paperback Writer,” became “Dave's A Hack Writer” for roasting humor writer Dave Barry.
- Gillette's new razor was parodied in “Mach 3 Time”, based on “Knock 3 Times.”
- The National Speakers Association learned to “Mingle Well” (from “Jingle Bells.)
- Xerox enjoyed “The tech will come out….tomorrow” (To the tune of “Tomorrow”)

Fake “Subject Matter Expert”
The popular practical joke to open the program. Initially fools the audience with nonsensical and difficult-to-understand material, and then transitions into the “regularly scheduled” program.
Comedy Roast Coordinator
“Chestnuts roasting on an open fire…” Now substitute the name of your guest of honor for “chestnuts” and you'll get the idea! The time-honored and classic tradition of skewering those whom we hold near and dear. Don't let your “roast” become “toast”. Make sure it's handled in a professional and hilarious manner.
