Truth is, these things have been going on since i can remember from what i can see. Maybe economics have raised the competition, but it seems everytime one gets a lot of applause and praise at a Karaoke show, it isn't long before they start their own Karaoke business, usually short lived. I couldn't imagine doing Karaoke after all these years of the one man show. I have all the "right stuff" to do it (karaoke) legitimately, but shudder at the in-fighting for jobs like this forum describes. Guess i just been spoiled. I still say the good will always play somewhere.
