The Karaoke Forum

as far as equipment I run all Peavey from speakers to amps to everything. as far as music goes.. bang for buck check out online auctions but be very careful who you are buying from because they could be illegal discs.. also check out your local all in one.. or here we call it a bargain finder... loo...

so here's my question Mic Time? how many of you allow it? and for what? dedications? Jokes? what's your thoughts on it?

Bar owners here are NOT allowed to provide heated shelters for smokers this would be yet again smoking in a public place and the second hand smoke crap.. it's been made very difficult for smokers here.

I somewhat agree and disagree with you bigdog. I agree that dead air is bad and I don't like having any. My singer's are learning to come ask me how long until they sing.

Last night a couple of girls (mother and daughter) came in, put up a song and sang it together. that was the okay part.

SMOKING BAN has been in effect here since January 01, 2008 (Except for on Native Properties, such as casinos) I still have all my customers although i imagine I have lost a few to the Casino 15 minutes away. It does make my job much more frustating... all my singers smoke, so when 1 goes out so do a...

I charge double for private gigs than what I do at a bar. this is for the simple reason that at a bar, people know they are coming for Karaoke, they sing and my job is easier. in a private gig, most people don't want to be there but have to be there and unless it's a convention for karaoke singers, ...
