DEAD OR ALIVE

A Musical Costume Karaoke Party

Friday, October 30, 2026 | Rose City Guitar Company

What if your favorite musician showed up to karaoke… and absolutely lost their mind?

Dead or Alive is a Halloween party and musical costume showdown where you get to become your favorite artist for the night. Come dressed as a musician—living or dead—and perform one of their songs.

Sing it. Play it. Karaoke it. Make it weird.

Channel Prince. Become Dolly. Summon Ozzy. Transform into Beyoncé. Or go completely off the rails with an artist nobody saw coming.

🏆 THREE WINNERS. $100 CASH FOR 1ST PLACE. GREAT PRIZES.

 

Judges will be watching for:

Best Overall Transformation — You literally are this musician and can I get your autograph?

Best Performance — I'm not even sure who you are supposed to be but WOW!

Most Unhinged / Committed to the Bit — Go. Absolutely. All. In.

And because it’s Halloween… expect surprises. 👀

Costumes. Karaoke. Live music. Questionable decisions. Musical mayhem.

Come dressed up. Grab a drink. Get on stage. Cheer wildly. Stay weird.

This is not your average karaoke night.

Early Bird: $15
General Admission: $20

Your ticket includes admission and entry to watch the contest. Contestants do not need to purchase a separate contest-entry ticket.
