You're not good enough to sing here

[RIKKI TIKKI]

Come on guys! If you discriminate, you eliminate! It's the Good, Bad, & the Ugly that has made Karaoke as popular as it is! If you want to see professional musicians/singers/ringers that are close to hitting the big time...., just go see a lounge act in Vegas, and see these stars in waiting, doing two shows a night trying to get discovered. Max talent, and nothing to show for it... and these are Pros!!! Go to Nashville, where great singer/songwriters are a dime a dozen, just hoping to get a break!

Your shows are not a showcase for Stars, it is a platform where the average Joe/Joanna, can get in front of their friends, co-workers, strangers.... Record Producers...Oops! Let them show how good or mediocre they can be with your assistance, and let them be the best that they can be, and have a great time, no matter what their level of Grandeur, as perceived by you, the KJ, unless you are a record producer? Run a fair rotation, give the good's, bad's, and ugly's their three minutes of fame, and go to the bank with a smile on your face knowing you didn't eliminate anybody because they drank water, instead of Crown Royal! ( And then tipped you for accomodating their penchant for singing, and not getting staggering drunk because a drink minimum is the only prerequisite that your show/bar looks at!)

Sorry gang, I just felt like venting, and this thread seemed like a good one to start with!
