I am not saying this because i am a newbie and want the advice. I really love this life style. I love karaoke, the feeling of singing well and people coming up and saying good job, people clapping because they want too!! I have to admit I am one of the low price guys. My first gig is May 8th I have 1500-2000 songs for my first gig and bougt 2000$ in equiptment, the 1500-2000 different songs, and am doing everything I can to make money only to put it right back into the show. My first gig is 100$ If everyone helps the new guys the new guys help the nest and so on. I would do this for free in my heart just because i love it!
