I appreciate the acknowledgement of me included that picture, but I'm not really in the business. I haven't hosted a show in about 2 years now, and when I was hosting, it was only for a brief period of time (with occasional fill-ins for other KJs). But, when I was doing a show, I always did give it my all.

My appreciation, Alan. They would be the same guys I'd pick as well (me exluded).  They’re the ones who helped me tremendously to succeed in the business. But I would be remiss if I (we) did not include RLC. I think he’s more deserving than me to be up there in the honor roll.  Attachment:

We need to do something about the RLC situation. OK, scroll back up to the top.

I should also note that even though I appreciate the shout out, I don't do much hosting myself these days. I have determined that it is easier for me to be the floater to fill in for folks when they need a night off then to try to keep someone in reserve. I may host 1-2 times a month right now.
We still do 24 shows a week and run 7 nights a week and I think we do a pretty good job of it. But I have to give the credit to the phenomenal hosts that work with me because they do the real work every night.

Thank you Alan & Brian, although I guess I too am no longer an active host.
My 10+ year run at the same establishment has come to an end due to the establishment owners health issues (cancers-2 different types) and questions concerning the future of the establishment. (long story so I won't go into it here)
At this point in time I have no interest in seeking a new "gig".
I turned 61 a few months back, retired early from my full time job 01-01-2014 and am going to wind down karaoke and DJing as well.
I believe I did my last wedding this past weekend...if I can learn to say no.
I will still do some private parties, Anniversaries & Birthdays...if I choose to.
Time to just go out with the wife and friends and sing and enjoy a beer and a shot.
Also time to do some traveling and spend time with the kids and grandkids.
In the mean time I have one hell of a home karaoke system!!!

WOW, Thanks Alan. I haven't been at it as long as most of the others, but I certainly do my best to keep my customers happy, and supplied with the best music I can buy.

Wouldn't have been a big deal, except I secured a new 5 night a week gig the same day she quit. So I am hosting to cover her gig till I find someone to replace her and covering a couple of the nights for the new gig until the host that will be running it sorts out there schedule.
