Actually ive been to one of "Big Dogs" shows and it was just as he says it is.

You can't handle the proof.  LMAO

Im sorry Babs, just couldnt help it

I think you all are awsome!! I come here just for the intertainment and ive
been keeping up with some of this like reading a novel  :D

Sorry for my poor sense of humor, Ill go back to my corner now and behave myself.

Actually ive been to one of "Big Dogs" shows and it was just as he says it is.

In three hours only once was there no karaoke because the poor guy finally had to take a break to use the restroom and his break only lasted about 10 minutes.
Then it was back to nothing but karaoke until the place closed somehwere around 3am i think it was.

Knowing the area...I too will not say where it is because i understand why Big Dog is keeping it a secret  LOL

The place im talking about is a tourist area which stays packed almost all year round and yes his shows are awsome!!

My wife and i even went to his store and bought a few things  :D

Big Dog had made some real valid points.....Meaning My wife and I and our kids and our friends stopped going to the karaoke shows where we live because of the very things that Big Dog has talked about!!

We would rather drive 2hours to go to his shows than to drive 10 minutes from our house to go to a show that is full of the crap that Big Dog has mentioned.

Sorry Big Dog....I know you dont know me, But i think your CooL!! and your shows are hard to beat!!!.... only the best out there can compare to you buddy  :hi5:

Sorry folks im just being honest  LMAO

And if i were Big Dog i wouldnt tell any other kj's about this area either....Id keep all that money to myself too  :D

So Big Dog definitely IS a guy!  Then why is there a "female" symbol under Big Dog's avatar?

Jesse - You have been a member since May 2005 and only made 24 posts in that time. Why would you decide to comment on such a heated discussion?

The contest that i have observed went like this:

20 people enter the contest.
10 of these cant carry a tune in a bucket.
Out of the last 10 people, 8 need serious vocal training as they cannot seem to stay in key with the song they sing, and the 2 left are actually Good.


The People chosen by judges for the finals:

The 2 Good singers... 1 female and 1 male.
2 singers of the 8 that need serious vocal training.
4 of the other 10 which are the worst singers of the entire group.

Then they go to the finals and the its basically a battle between the 2 Good singers as the others are eliminated due to obvious reasons.

Between the 2 Good singers...1 female and 1 male....The female is chosen winner because she wears a more eye catching costume and puts on a bit more of a show as she has more dance moves than the guy who is just as vocally talented but doesnt dance enough while singing and has a less flashy costume(clothing).


Then after the female wins, she thinks she is good enough to go pro. when the doors are closed in her face due to the fact that she simply does not have the right looks...even though vocally she is really good, then she starts getting a reality check and finds that she is not going to get anywhere in the music biz.

She then gets down about this and eventually stops doing something that she once loved...Singing....Singing because its fun and something she enjoys.

Also...all those who didnt get picked for the finals who were better than some that did get chosen...these also eventually loose interest as they see how things are done in these contest...meaning that some of the worst singers are chosen just so that the obvious Good singers will have less competition....

Then there's all the rest, who eventually see how this all works and they loose interest.

In the end....these people stop going to karaoke bars due to loosing interest in singing just because of these contest and how they are run.

Who looses in the long run?  The clubs and the Kj's do because now the customers are not coming in spending money to drink and have fun singing karaoke.


As far as a online contest...If people want to participate just for fun to see how they stand up against every one else who joins in....then go for it and have fun i say.

But to take these contest serious...., In my opinion thats silly  

But then this is only my opinion and observations, to me karaoke is for fun. If a person is serious about trying to go pro with there singing...Then put together a band and get your stuff together....meaning your own songs and music and then head on out and do some gigs touring around and selling your CD's. When you can show a record label that you have made $40,000 to $80,000 bucks selling your own CD's during concerts...Then maybe they will take interest  

Thats my 2 cents  

:beermates:

Can we just agree to disagree and move on

OK

I agree and am moving on.

Welcome to the site None.  A little humor is probably what we need right now.
Just don't tell us you know BD or we'll have to spank you.  LMAO
