How many people does it take to run your Karaoke show?

When I first started out, I had a partner, and we would work togehter.
Some people at our first ever venue thought we should go on the road as a comedy act, but my partner was too "tied down".
Sometimes I miss those days.....

I worked with someone for less than a year. We had different points of view, and that can be very dangerous in a venture where you have to communicate with the crowd. So I decided to go solo, and I'm doing fine. Sometimes I will get someone to help me setup my equipment and cables.

Yeah, it does have to be the right person.

I have another competitor who is in the same situation. While he likes doing shows twice to three times a month. He dislikes his partners lack of understanding when it comes to the business. His partner has a lot of copied disks and he wants to replace all copies with originals. His partner's apparent lack of vision is possibly putting their show in jeopardy. I told him, remove his own personal (legal disks). And see how long he would survive. Sometimes you have to be cruel to be kind....This was one of the problems I had with my partner.

We are good friends, but sometimes friends can be insensitive, when it comes to the business....
