Seems like the only time I ever have a bad night is when someone tries too hard to bypass some of the rules I have set in place to protect my equipment.
It makes me feel like a control freak.
I have all of my gear racked and near me to keep people from touching things.
When I used discs I would not allow anyone to touch them to prevent scratches or other damage.
When I used wired mics I tied them to the rack and around the TV stand and set the cables to enough length to keep people from walking too far away from the TV.
I don't allow people to have drinks and mics at the same time because I had a night where a guy fried most of my system by pouring a beer into the mic.
I have had several bad nights in the last 13 years of karaoke.
