I myself prefer NOT to start and be first. One, I have been at the same places, one for almost 8 years, and another for two. I have my loyal regulars who generally are there to be the first ones on the list. I don't have a problem getting someone to start. This gives me a chance to walk around for a volume and sound check. And, while that 1st singer is going strong, now everyone is asking questions or bringing up their slips. ( I hate it when someone starts asking me questions WHILE I am singing) I place myself when there are too many slow, sappy songs and we need a change. Or to put a break in the lineup when it looks like one table is dominating the night. This also helps in making the appearance that I am NOT making me the star. I dislike the karaoke shows where the KJ sings most the night, or with every other singer. Karaoke is supposed to be for the patrons, and supposed to be fun. So, in answer to your question, I could be anywhere, or nowhere in the lineup. Daryl.
