Do you move people ?
I try to never do this but it does happen.
What do you do when someone misses their song? I try to get them back in as soon as possible, because we have three rooms and karaoke is only in one plus sometimes they are in the bathroom. |

Sure it happend last night. The next singer had just danced some of that garbage that women always request so they can trip all over each other.
She could hardly get her breath, so I told her to just rest until I got the next singer to sing. I got an out of breath "thank you", and it worked out great. I do it for my regulars a lot. Many times they are trying to get a drink in a crowded bar, or have to go to the little room, etc. I have never had a real complaint about it. I don't want those folks taking my cordless mikes into the rest room with them. I'm usually the next person to use it, if they do. LOL |

Basically, I think we all move people. It is really a question of what brings in ppl for the bar.
Plain and Simple.

i do that all the time, if they are not on the stage after calling them 3 x i will skipped and put them at the bottom of the list..but i usually go around while i have someone on the stage and i usually go the person next on the list and tell them they wil be up soon, or i usually announced who's up next and who's in the hole..that way if they get put in at the bottom of the list they know the reason why..

Lot of it depends on the crowd, but I do it often and when people complain I explain myself. Early in the night I'll have maybe 4 - 6 singers and the crowd comes in around 11, some of my regular crowd I'll call up out of line and work them in. By 11 the earlies have sang quite a few songs and they understand working it some of their friends, unless there is a large crowd that don't sing. I then take my 4-6 singers for a round play 5 dj request songs then do another round. When the Karaoke crowd gets in around 11 then I only take one or two request songs depending on how good the singers are and if they are chasing out the listeners. I do get a few disgruntled people once in a while when I do this, but so far not many. At 61 I could always say I lost track but I won't lie to my people.

That makes good sense swany, that's sort of what I end up doing most of the time.
Last night, however, the bar owner pulled me aside and said "See that guy over there, he's really terrible, last night he sang too often, any way you can work around him a bit, do, please, he's awful?

Good advice again swane. That's what I try to do most of the time actually. Works well.
