How is everybody missing my point?

It's the CROWDS at karaoke I hate, thus by extension, I hate karaoke events in general.

I played hockey. Hockey is about skating, balance, finesse, handling a round puck on the end of a curved stick while skating 20-23 miles per hour, dodging large men trying to knock you down. Yet 19,500 fans out of 19,800 fans attend games to see fights.

NASCAR is about endurance, driving skills, reacting to quick changes at 200 miles per hour. Yet most of the fans go to see crashes.

There is an occasional decent singer at karaoke. Most of the people attending are there to laugh at the bad ones who think they CAN sing. That is cruel to the bad singer, and an insult to music.

Music, which as I said, is sacred and must be respected, not ridiculed.
