How can I send a singing telegram in St. Louis?

(Anonymous to protect the surprise.)

The only performer I can find online is Johnny Rose. I'm going to call him tomorrow, but since he seems to be the big name in StL singing telegrams, I don't expect him to be available on Valentine's Day. Any body know of other services/ performers in the area?

There is an a cappella group at Washington University in St. Louis called More Fools Than Wise. They offer a singing Valentine's Singing Telegrams service. It's normally limited to the campus, but for enough money I'm sure they could be coaxed into making a field trip.

You might call Eastern Onion to see if they have anyone in St. Louis. My mom used to send them all the time to my dad's office for his birthday when we lived in Chicago. Good times.

Not an in-person experience, but perhaps equally confusing and inspiring--check out Taj Tunes. I've used them several times and the recipient has always loved it + they send you an MP3 of the conversation after the fact.
