We will rock you

So I had an idea: I was thinking about how I want to replace my dead laserdisc player, and I may as well get one that plays karaoke discs. Then I realized the people that run karaoke down at the bar aren't a permanent fixture yet, and SK is related to the owners. Why not add a few things to my DJ setup, and run karaoke my own self?

Last night I tried to hit the guy up at his bar, but he left during the first song. Hmm. I left SK a message, and did the same at the bar... no call yet. Guess I'll go shopping online for the player now. After that, all I need is a microphone and some karaoke discs! Already got speakers and a mixer. Heck, a friend at work even gave me a mic stand. Later I can improve my sound gear and add a TV.

I know how to do it right... call out who's on deck so more people stay, and keep that song list up to date. I don't even need a huge collection, as long as I get people to tell me what songs they want, and then get 'em. Most places play bits of interlude music between songs, but I'd keep it short, and maybe even spin some vinyl.
