Tips when going to sing Karaoke.

Here are a few things that will help you if you are new to karaoke.

1. If you want to sing more than 1 or 2 songs, then go to sing Monday through Thursday and then get there early when they first start. Because most places start to get busy around 9:00pm and get really busy on Fridays and Saturdays and some places even get busy on Sunday. Yes I know some places don't start till 9:00pm, those places typically start to get busy around 10:30pm. Basically you can figure on a place getting busy around 1 hour to an hour and half after they start. When I say busy, what I mean is that the singing rotation by that time will be around 1 hour long. Meaning it takes the KJ an hour to get through all the singers. It is common for the rotation to be over an hour and a half long on Fridays and Saturdays. So if you get there at 10:30 and they close at 2:00 you will be lucky to sing 2 songs on most Fri. and Sat.
2. This I can't stress strongly enough. As soon as you get seated write your name on the slip of paper and turn your name into the KJ so you can get into the rotation. Then you will usually have a couple of singers ahead of you, that will give you plenty of time to search for a song to sing. But please turn your song into the KJ as soon as you choose it so as to keep the rotation moving smoothly. Remember, the faster the rotation goes the more you get to sing.
3. Please be ready to sing when it is your turn. Please listen for your name and then get to the stage in a timely manor as to keep the rotation moving along so you get to sing more songs. Here is an easy way to estimate when you will sing next. Politely ask the KJ how many singers are ahead of you, OR as soon as you sing your first song ask how many singers are in the rotation, then multiply that by 3 minutes per singer and that will give you a great estimate as to when it will be your turn to sing next. This will lessen the chance of getting caught in the restroom or outside talking on your phone and missing your turn to sing. Because the KJ just can't keep track of all the singers and if you don't come up when your name is called he assumes you have left and he will likely remove your name from the rotation. SO PAY ATTENTION!
4. Please don't point the microphone in the direction of ANY speaker as this will cause a high screeching sound called feedback. Meaning don't lower the microphone while on stage cause there is a monitor speaker in front of you. That is there so you can hear yourself. But if people keep pointing the mic at it, the KJ is forced to lower the volume on that speaker which makes it harder to hear yourself. 

If you follow these tips you will have a smoother more enjoyable experience and be able to sing more songs.
