Quirky Gig Ads on Craigslist

Here's a few one-of-a-kind gigs requiring rare talents. Good luck!

Super Sleuth needed to take pictures of a boat



We need someone who lives or works in Gig Harbor to go to an address and very discretely look for a boat and take pictures of it if its there without being seen . Knowledge of boats helpful but not necessary- stealth like movements are necessary.

(The back story must be a doozy.)


ELVIS IMPERSONATOR-FAME! FORTUNE! PEANUT BUTTER & BACON SANDWICHES!
...seeking a talented Elvis impersonator for our huge Halloween extravaganza, a Vegas style Wizard of Oz spoof. Your role would be that of the "Cowardly Lion" or "The King" of the Forest...

(You had me at bacon.)

Special Effects/Gore person needed for slasher parody
Local film collective “The Beta Society” is producing a short horror film entitled “Junkbucket”, a slasher spoof whose titular killer chops off people's junk. We will have 10 kills total and will prove to be a lot of fun. We can provide high quality stills for your portfolio.

(You lost me at chops off people's junk.)

Craigslist quirky gigs

So I'm idly cruising the CL Gigs section and run across these gems:

The game Rock Band needs a drummer. Duuude. It would be SO AWEsome if we played every song perfectly at the expert level and beat the game. We'd make so much money. Heh-heh. We're SO good, but we need a drummer. Rockband superstars, this month's Vice mag has an insert just for you: "Rockband Guide to Power Stances."



Tree Climber. Get paid $15 to climb a tree in a very busy city park and retrieve a remote control plane for a "big guy."

Need girls to sing "It's My Party and I'll Cry if I Want To." A call for singers to perform at a birthday party for a 70-year-old woman. Sounds like a fun party. A real upper. Right.

Old bikes wanted for vintage bike film. It's a love story: boy-bike meets girl-bike. Prefer black or brown (for boy bike) and pink (for girl bike). I wonder if they hook up and what rating the MPAA will give.
