The Karaoke Forum

I've had people at my shows that pay attention to the length of EVERYBODIES songs. They also want to get THEIR singing time by picking long songs. Another long one is The Wreck Of The Edmund Fitzgerald by Gordon Lightfoot. I think it IS pretty petty when people have nothing better to do (when they g...

I'm not trying to convince anyone to use any type of hosting program. Just answering the question posted. Not putting down ANY other hosting program, just giving my opinion on the hosting program "I" use. I'm sure that ALL programs have SOMTHING that might not appeal to everyone, but that'...

Make up a list (that only you know), such as sing ANY Beatles song, or sing a gender bender, or ANY halloween song, etc. You can be as creative as you want. Make a list of 20 different topics, number them 1-20. Have the singer go to a dart board, throw a dart, and whatever number they hit, check the...

You can try the "test" version without the dongle to see if you like it first, before purchase. You can have Compuhost on several laptops, but the only one that will work, is the one with the dongle. So you have to make sure you know where your "dongle" is at all times. :shock: S...

I use Compuhost. I like the features, and ALL of the bells and whistles. Really makes a show so much easier.

Unless you have more CUSTOM discs than regular (off the shelf) discs, you DEFINATELY have more duplicates than 3000 out of 70,000. I also use a songbook creator, (not sure if I can mention the brand on this forum), but it is a Major brand songbook creator. It will automatically take out duplicates, ...

I think the only way this type of karaoke could work, is that the place is FULL of tourists. Different crowd every night, that way if someone gets offended by the totally unfair rotation works, they can leave and be replaced by another tourist waiting to chomp at the bit. No way would you keep a REG...

Believe it or not, ELVIS has a room set up like this in GRACELAND.

Actually, this happens more than you would think, but that's the way it is. The new manager is probably REALLY into sports, has some buddies that will come in, drink some beer, scream at the tv sets, and stay until ALL of the games are over. If you can compete with that, good luck! That's why karaok...

I don't mind doing things "old school", I like the mics I have (sm58's corded), and as I said earlier, SOME of the people come to WATCH karaoke, and this way, the singers are up by the monitor where these people can watch them sing. When a singer leaves this area (with a cordless mic), the...

In answer to Bigdog's question, If Frank wants to sing with Susie, it'll have to be in the NEXT rotation. I'd probably tell him to hurry and get a slip in with Susie for the NEXT rotation, because she seems to be pretty popular tonight. In this manner, it doesn't become the SUSIE show, or anyone els...

Bigdog, this is probably one of the reasons why I will stick to using CORDED mics. You are right there to insure who gets, and keeps, the mic. Alot of people come to WATCH karaoke being sung, not some IDIOT rolling on the floor with a 500.00 mic. Hope I didn't take it too far off topic. :shock: Rosa...

Very easy, Susie can sing a duet with the next person in the NEXT rotation. As I said, one by herself, one as a duet. Although I don't like the idea of someone singing 2 songs EVERY rotation, I will allow it, because I have set the rules, and I have to stick to them ALSO. :lol: Rosario Serenity Now ...

First, I'm new to this forum, so Hi to all. Now, to the subject. I have a rule in the front of my songbook that states, "each singer sings ONCE per rotation, with the exception of singing a duet requested by ANOTHER singer. In this way, the MOST anyone gets to sing is twice in a rotation, NO MA...
