Thank you for considering booking a Slugs & Bugs event! We consider it a high honor to partner with those in ministry to children and families, and if you are looking for something extremely silly and fun and somehow still deeply meaningful, Slugs & Bugs may indeed be a good fit for your goals.

Slugs and Bugs Live is approximately 1 hour, with live music, animated video and background musical tracks that extend through all the songs. The concert is geared toward boys and girls age 10 and under, but we won't kick the older kids out - they love it too!

There are fun interactive moments, and also teaching moments during the program. Some of the material is ridiculously silly, and some of it is deeply meaningful and gospel centered. Slugs and Bugs Live is a super great time, and Randall leaves the kids (and maybe the parents!) with a deepening awareness of the presence of Jesus in their lives.

Randall Goodgame is a critically acclaimed American singer/songwriter, and the driving force behind Slugs & Bugs Live. He has released 6 solo recordings, and has written many songs for other artists, including 17 songs for the award winning band Caedmon's Call. Randall has written several songs for Veggie Tales, and he spent 4 years as the worship pastor of Midtown Fellowship in downtown Nashville. Randall enjoys peanut butter and chocolate anything, and being home with his family of 5 in Nashville, Tennessee.

We try not to exclude a church or school just because they have limited resources. The typical fee is $2500 + travel and lodging, but we get creative with deep discounts for smaller churches when that's way out of range. There are also ways with ticket sales to structure a very low fee for your church. Randall is passionate about serving families through Slugs & Bugs, and will try to make every opportunity work out.

We have provided a form below where you can provide your name and email, your church name, the date you would like to request, and a concert fee that fits your budget. If you don't know the exact date, please provide a range. This form is for your convenience and will ensure a prompt reply. It does NOT confirm or book a date.

How long is the concert?
about one hour

How big are your shows typically?
average 250-300, but there's a big spread.

Do you perform most in churches or in auditoriums, etc?
Mostly churches, school auditoriums, and school gym type rooms.

Do churches sell tickets to cover costs, or have you had shows where the churches cover the entire show out of their own budgets?
This happens about 50/50. If they do sell tickets, it's usually $5/person, or $5 per person/$20 per family.

What other types of requirements are there for a concert? (Do you need volunteers, etc?)
We do ask for volunteers for things like load in and merchandise sales, and there are other technical requirements, but all of these details are specifically spelled out in the rider and stage plot you will receive upon confirming a Slugs & Bugs Live event.

What is the age range of a typical Slugs & Bugs audience?
We specifically gear the show toward kids 5th grade and younger and their parents (the concert is for parents and kids to have fun together). However, when older kids do attend, they enjoy it just as well!

Is there a specific Gospel message given at a Slugs & Bugs concert?
The goal of a Slugs & Bugs event is to provide a great time for parents and kids that supports the ongoing Biblical training provided by the church or school. Age appropriate Gospel encouragements are woven throughout the concert, and Randall's heart is for each child to leave with a deeper understanding of Jesus' love for them.
