Singers Spend No Money

I'm on the other side of the state from you. (SW corner) I favor the Dew also, only the diet variety.

In keeping with the thread though, another annoyance is the people who don't clap for everyone else. I can't think of any reason not to clap. Either they did a great job and you enjoyed the performance, or you are happy it's over!!

This happens so much in this area, that many bars stopped doing karaoke.
One bar I worked at had a neat solution. For every $4.00 you spent the bar would give you a ticket. The ticket was good for one song. No one complained. The tickets were only good for the one night. But you could give your tickets to someone else. I collected the ticket when they came up to sing... No ticket, no sing....

Still had the water drinkers, but they bought more food or sodas or they sang one song and left, either way the bar was happy..
