Post subject:  The "BIG" Idea
Ok so before I start in on this, I want this to be a JFF thing.  Why don't we have a Singer's Showcase Awards show...... minus the show part..... Ok now my main concern about this is that someone would get their feelings hurt if they didn't win anything, but such is life sometimes it sucks, but to remedy this the best way I can think of is to have one person in charge..... and we set up a bunch of serious category's like best female vocals and some silly ones like best blooper and funniest parody stuff like that.  Then we all nominate people for the category's we decide on and then after that EVERYONE votes on one person per category and those votes can be done by e-mail.... and maybe a couple people who weren't interested in being nominated could count them and such.  I know it sounds like a lot, but it's only a lot for the brave soul who takes it on.  But I'm not ever sure if you guys would want to do that..... so I just set up a little poll.... just let me know what you think.. and why :)

Judging folks based on some criteria you decide is not what karaoke is, maybe american idol, but not karaoke.

Ok, Opinions are like...... yeah you know the rest, but I respect yours, however off I feel it is.  First of all, it wouldn't be criteria that I decide.  We'd all decide, and the only reason I could even think it would come CLOSE to American Idol is the simon character you represent.  Not all of it would be for vocal talent at all. I personally think that it takes a lot of courage to sub some genre you've never tried before or for a man to sing "like a virgin"  It's not a competition.... it's  recognition.  For the people who are always commenting and giving opinions that both motivate and help the people on the showcase; and for the people who take the time to help out newbies, for the original people who come up with hilarious parodies, or the BRAVE people who sub their bloopers.  There can be some serious categories but like I said this would just be for fun and to let people who really amaze us be recognized.  But if you feel that it's not the way to go then I respect that.

I think it sounds like fun. Although as you brought up, feelings will probably be hurt, but if anyone who enters can keep in mind that it is only for fun and not take things so seriously then it would be cool. And lets face it, I don't think that karaoke is about the people who can sing, but about the people who aren't as good but have the testicular fortitude to sing in public or sub to a site anyway. Sounds like fun..............Timbo
