Karaoke audience member who go there to see people make fools of themselves by abusing music are making fun of music. My craft. And yours. And they are making fun of it. Music is sacred and deserves respect.

I'm out of this one.



OK I have to jump in here

There are some extremely talented singers around here who sing to Karaoke. Why? Because there are no longer any bands around here because the bars do not hire bands anymore. Many of vocalists around here are musicians, mostly guitarist, but again no band to play with ‘cause no place to play for pay.

Having said that I will add that finding a gem vocalist at a Karaoke bar is like finding one on youtube. You must listen to 1000s of them to find the one gem, at least that has been my experience.

One last point, you might be surprised how many musicians around here scorn at me because I use BiaB. “That’s not music” I’ve been told. I’ve even played them songs with RTs and they loved it, until I tell them its BiaB. Then they pick it apart.

So what is the difference between singing to Karaoke and tracks made in BiaB?

Whenever I get something stuck in the back of my throat, I dislodge it by drinking a beer.
It's called the Heineken Maneuver.
