I would add that a karaoke guy is not a bad person...just not a real musician. In the same way that a guitar hero champion is good at something a bit different from being a musician. It is sad when the general public doesn't know the difference. One thing I think is really cool is the ability to put ones own spin on a cover tune like a band would and still use it in a single/duo context. That way club owners and other talent buyers can be assured that they are buying the work of a musician and not just a recording of one. ...just a couple of my thoughts and observations:)
