I have done someone a favor if they have to leave because their ride is leaving or they have to get a babysitter home. My "Rule #7": If you are leaving, and want me to move you up in the rotation for “one last song before I leave,” I'll be happy to do so. Just remember that you'll be scra...

Chartbuster did put out Essential 450 1-6 in SCDG format for a while, but 7-10 are CDG format only as far as I know. You can still find Essentials 1-6 SCDGs in the original packaging on eBay from closeout vendors like TSC karaoke. Each one of these discs has software that allows you to play them on ...

How would you feel if you were standing in line to buy tickets to a movie or concert and the manager put people in line in front of you? How do you react when you put your first song in and the host tells you it's going to be 2 hours before you sing and you know most people there have already sung ...

There's actually two things I try to accomplish with a rotation. First, I try to make sure no one EVER sees someone sing twice before they sing, if they have a song in the queue. This makes sure I'm being as fair as possible to all singers. Second, I try not to make people wait more than 20 minutes ...

If rotations change after they've started, why bother to have one at all?
At some point you hit the end of the list and start over again. That's why it's referred to as a rotation.

A chaotic rotation will anger singers far faster that waiting on one with clearly stated rules.

However, the voodoo group performed progressively worse over the period of time they were exposed to the music and eventually became so disoriented that they became unable to complete the maze at all. These mice were also hyperactive and aggressive, often engaging in cannibalistic behavior. Attack ...

Actually, I did pay for all of the songs that are on there, several times over. You're making assumptions again. You paid the royalties and licensing fees? Yes or No? I've paid what was needed to be paid to use the works in question, yes. You have 17 karaoke songs up for download. Have you: A) paid...

You're wrong. I'm not unethical and I'm not sacrificing my ethics or morals. You're using the fruit of other people's work to promote yourself on your website without paying them or gaining their permission to do so. Ergo, your actions say otherwise.

Mines a different approach. It goes like this: "Bob's already signed up for that one in this rotation. If you REALLY want to sing it, I'll put you in for it, but I've noticed that the people repeating a song usually don't get as good of a response even when they sing it better than the first pe...

I forgot to mention that everytime it was jerks turn to sing...he started the song, screwed it up and passed the microphone off to one of his pals to finish. In situations like these, I often find solace in these words from Robert Heinlein: " Stupidity cannot be cured with money, or through ed...

I just tell 'em that they're welcome to sing 'em, but I announce PBTDBL, American Pie, and Stairway to Heaven as sing-alongs and they have to share the stage with whoever wants to come up and sing since they're such long songs.

So many people change their mind when I tell 'em that . . . :mrgreen:
