I'm not really in the business anymore persay as I now own my own bar. I do all my own shows myself and leave my equipment there. But being 8 years in the business prior to buying my own place.

Our community says any advertising is soliciting business.. therefore i would need a business license .. now i have won that i don't need one because I do not advertise outside of the building I am playing at.

in canada we have a SOCAN license which is basically the same as bigdog said. it covers everything from movies they play to bands to jukebox, karaoke, Basically any form of entertainment where copyrighted material is used. the bar has to pay for this license. BUT now something a little different. ho...

Again everyone deserves their 3-4 minutes of mic time, if they want to share it, it's their choice as far as i'm concerned. and if you can figure out how to work the system all the power to you. (suezy could find 12 people who "want" to sing duets with her, or want her help and she could s...

k my thoughts... I'm going through something kinda the same. this new bar manager and big ideas about cancelling karaoke periodically to bring bands in... not good ones but local bands, up the road 15 minutes another bar is bringing in bands with names people recognize. Prism, Julian austin and The ...

If i had to start over, what would i do? Not Buy ANY Panorama Discs especially the THR or THRB Discs. (I have an entire year of them that i have never used). I wouldn't have bought that stupid Susan tedeschi disc and paid such a stupid price for it $70.00 CDN. I would have stayed away from LG and BS...

did you also run 3.0? very simple fix, cause i'm going to assume the options are the same in 4.0 as in 3.0 just with more features... So here is what you have to do step by step: DELETE ALL COLLECTIONS & CLOSE SEARCH WINDOW 1) General Options -> Check The box that says "Parse File Name Titl...

WOW great discussion.. i also purchased a new laptop today and am having the exact same issue... plugged in - bad feedback noise battery - no noise Shure beta pg 2.0 On - Noise Shure beta pg 2.0 Off - No Noise I remember some time back where someone mentioned a problem with the laptop power cord nee...

yeah i'm the same way. Everyone gets a turn every rotation. BUT i do try to keep those that sing together, away from each other in a round. So if bob and Carl sing together all the time. i might make sure to have them 5 to 8 singers apart in rotation. i try to keep all singers from 1 table apart fro...

I dunno how it is for you guys in the States or Overseas. In Canada though, we KJ's are under appreciated by most club owners, (Finding that Lebanese owner's to be the best to work for, they are wonderful). Now i've hit a really big huge brick wall, and am frustrated and tired of beating my head aga...

wow okay... 2 laptops and 3 HD's, restoring them both to last month didn't work... so formatted and reinstalled on 1... and finally have figured it out.. it was the latest windows update that did it... so solution.. don't update i guess.

wrong word library it's actually the collection.. it won't allow me to add my songs to my collection.. i formatted my second drive and reloaded everything onto it... 1 drive is ntfs and one is fat32... could this be the issue?

I added about 300 new discs to my system & went to work this evening. When i got there I found that Swift elite wouldn't load my HD into a new library. So I ran home and got 1 of my back ups and again the same thing. I was unable to search for my songs using it. So i used windows search and drag...

When i started I was able to find a bulk sale of discs through a bargain finder as such it was 250 discs... i paid $2000.00 for them. my start up costs all together was just under $10,000.00 over the past 6 years I have spent 1 night's pay a month on discs that i find through the above mentioned sou...
