About Vendor 

Learn more about this vendor for your event.

The Pac Men's motto is: BIG SONGS, BIG HAIR, & BIG FUN. They perform all-80s big hits including dance, rock, pop, new wave, and R&B. If they can't get you dancing then you must be dead! Clients are blown away by how they can take a small party, a corporate event, or a festival, and turn it into a Las Vegas showcase-level event. Past PAC MEN clients always never fail to mention how their guests had so much fun, even after many months or years after the event. The Pac Men are all about building fun, long-term relationships for years to come. The way that The Pac Men interacts with the audience and delivers consistent high energy throughout their entire performance is what really sets them apart from other 80s tribute bands. You will literally feel like you are at an 80s concert. Unlike many others, they have skits and routines that engage your guests to participate. Everyone in The Pac Men is on wireless systems, which allow them to walk out into the crowd and dance with your guests. And when we talk about high energy, we are not talking about just bopping their heads around and swinging their guitars. We are talking about an authentic 80s concert vibe with four guys who perform the part of that glorious decade's rockstars. Their lead singer Sting Ray has even received many best performer awards (LA Music Awards). That dude has more energy in him than Mick Jagger! They have been called the real deal by celebrities, reputable venues (House of Blues, M15, Romano's, The Coach House), and multi-platinum artists such as The Flock of Seagulls, Berlin, The Motels, Missing Persons, English Beat, and The Steve Miller Band. The Pac Men have been praised for their talent, their entertaining and flashy outfits, and their professional sound. The Pac Men's guitarist, Chops, is the guitar tech for Vivan Campbell, guitarist for the multi-platinum 80s band Def Leppard. He also has performed with Mark McGrath from Sugar Ray. Because they know the technology behind emulating that quintessential 80s sound, The Pac Men have the most polished sound out of all 80s tribute bands. The Pac Men are seasoned professionals who can perform for private parties or stadiums filled with 50k fans. In fact, members of The Pac Men have been signed to record labels in the past. They have extensive tour and live experience. They are geared up to entertain large crowds. The Pac Men are guaranteed to exceed your guests' expectations. Some of their clients include: Harley Davidson, Google, Twitter, Redbox, Universal Studios, The Anaheim Grove, and Toyota to name a few. Some awards include: voted best cover band by Inland Empire Magazine, Press Enterprise Readers' Choice, Santa Monica Daily hottest live act choice, and Orange Coast Magazine Best of OC cover band. Testimonials: The PacMen played for our annual Holiday Party last weekend and ALL of our guests really enjoyed them! Lots of energy, funny costumes - a FULL Entertainment Band - very crowd engaging too! The entire band was very professional and willing to improvise on our timing / schedule - even played an extra half hour because everyone was having so much fun dancing! Great group of guys with fun personalities :) You and your guests will not be disappointed in hiring them, highly recommended for any occasion - they would be perfect for a Corporate party, personal, or wedding. Enjoy! Thanks Ray, you all put on one heck of a show! - Toyota We hired the Pac Men to play at our Journey to the 80s Fundraiser for the Heffernan Foundation at the London Hotel in West Hollywood. They had the crowd on the floor dancing and having a great time the entire night. They are energetic, fun and interactive. I would highly recommend them for any party. - Heffernan Foundation We had the Pac Men MC and play for our wedding reception and everyone LOVED them! They are great with the crowd and getting everyone up and dancing and our guests of all ages really enjoyed it - and everyone also loved their spandex costumes ;-) Ray also put up with all of my questions beforehand and was great about checking in with us up until the big day. Seriously - highly recommend and LOVE these guys. Thanks for making our wedding memorable. -Andrea We hired the Pac Men to play at our company Christmas party and they did not disappoint! Our team had so much fun and they truly made the party. They have great communication and follow up (super important) and they really give it all they got. I would totally recommend them for any event...worth every penny. Thanks guys!!! - Google These guys are friggin awesome! They did my husband's birthday party and really made the night. They showed up early to make sure everything was set up and sounding great. They were professional, funny, personable, and badass. During the show they got the audience going and were really interactive. We would hire them again in a heartbeat. I just need an excuse to have them play. - Jen And many more!

Birthday Party (Adult)Reviewed on April 9, 2018From Malibu, CA

The PacMen were the highlight of my party! Everyone loved their show and the music they dj'd inbetween sets was spot on. They made the party so fun and 100% entertaining. I can not say enough good things about them. They were easy to work with leading up to the event, did a PG-rated show for my family-friendly crowd but I can't wait to have them play an adult gig and see all their antics -- and they are great musicians! Book them now, you won't be sorry!!

WeddingReviewed on January 5, 2018From Huntington Beach, CA

The Pac Men Band was amazing; they were budget friendly, provided Emcee services, and are high energy! Our guests had such a great time and you guys really made it special. If anyone is looking for a band that will get people talking about the wedding, months later... book them!
