For karaoke singers

 

Q: What kind of people come to your shows?

A: That depends entirely on the place where we are doing the show. Although they all have a mixture of people, some places are more city, country, younger, older, white collar, blue collar and so on. We'd love for you to try them all and see which ones you are the most confortable with. Pictures of some of our locations are available on this site.

A: Well, if you are a younger person, you'll probably be happy to know that we have all the latest hits on the radio which are licensed for karaoke. If you are an older person, you'll probably be happy to know we have thousands of oldies. Over 100 songs each by big hit makers such as Frank Sinatra and Elvis Presley. If you like country you'll be happy to know we have all the latest country hits and thousands of older ones too.
Q: Do you have karaoke in Spanish?
A: Yes, at all locations except the few which are noted "English only" on the Club Info page.
Q: Okay, I'm here. When am I up?
A: Our singers are very important to us. We always do our best but cooperate with management guidelines. For example: some places hire us to do a fast paced show, aimed at young people. There we might not be able to put up your slow Michael Bolton tune. At the Elks lodge, we might put a Michael Bolton song up right away, but a Pantera request would be inappropriate. Family restaurants don't want songs laced with curse words. Some clubs expect us to give better service to their biggest spenders. Some require purchase of at least one food or drink item. Within the framework we were given, we'll do the best we possibly can for you.
Q: I don't see my favorite song in your book.
A: Probably 98% of the time we hear this, the person is not looking in the right place. Please just ask your KJ. We will be happy to help you find it. Also, our KJ's have been instructed to tell us if someone asks for a song we don't have. That way we can order songs that people want. Lots of tunes have yet to become available on karaoke at all. We often tell our suppliers which songs people are requesting and sometimes it pays off. We listen to the popular radio stations to discover new hits and want to know which ones people are interested in singing. Again, we appreciate you telling us.
Q: My song isn't available on karaoke at all. Why not?
A: If it's not on karaoke at all, there's two possible reasons:
   1.  All successful songs have a publishing company. It's their job to make as much money as possible from each tune. Sometimes they hold out for so much money that a karaoke manufacturer cannot possibly record it and make a profit. This doesn't do the song writers any good, because zero royalties from the karaoke industry can't be what they were expecting.
   2. The other possible reason is no karaoke manufacturer feels the song is popular enough with the general public to sell a large number of CD's. Of course they hope to make a profit from their efforts.
Q: I've been waiting to sing. That guy has been up there twice already.
A: Each singer gets one turn per rotation. You can also assist another singer with their turn (duet) once per rotation. You can do two assists if you have no turn. Twice per round is the total entertaining limit. This is as fair as we can possibly make it. If it's a good night, someone will probably ask you to sing with them.
Q: I was waiting to sing. A hot chick came in and the KJ put her up right away.
A: Sorry, that must have been Bob's show. We asked him not to do that anymore. We also asked him to stop giving those Mardigras beads to ladies who bare their breasts. He has promised that he will at least try to exercise more self control from now on.
