It appears that some KJ's have regular crowds while others mostly cater to tourists/transients during certain seasons. And then there are all the other possible alternatives in between.
For those who have a regular returning crowd do you believe that your average singer:
1)  practices each song he sings   Yes_X_ No__X__
2)  sings the same material over and over  Yes_X__ No_____
3)  adds new material regularly  Yes_____ No_X__
4)  is concerned about the caliber of sound equipment you use Yes_X__ No______
4)  realizes the caliber of sound equipment you use Yes__X_ No______
5)  is most concerned about having fun Yes__X__ No_______
6)  is most concerned with how good he sounds  Yes__X_ No___   
7)  would come to the place even if they weren't offering karaoke Yes__X_ No__X__
1 - Some have discs they bring & do say they practice at home
2 - Most do sing the same stuff over, and will add an occasional new song
3 - Occasionally
4 - Many have asked about the equipment & mics used.  Especially musicians that come in regularaly
5 - All want to have fun
6 - Everyone has stated at some point, make sure I sound my best (which is still all dependant on their own singing)
7 - I do have some regulars that go in for Happy Hour that stay through the night and sing, have others that just love being there - sometimes sing, sometimes not but I believe they would still come in if there was no karaoke.  Others come in specifically to sing.
