How to Introduce a Karaoke Show
Hi my name is Richard Buccola of Starlite Karaoke here in New York City and on behalf of Expert Village today we're going to show you how to start and run a successful karaoke business. Anyway I just want to show you how to maybe introduce it your going to have your bar filled and your going to have some music playing in the background for to come in, so play some music introduce your bartenders if your working there, introduce your host, or the main people at the party that are throwing it. Rather the party be a weekly thing or a one time thing always highlight the most important people, of course if its a birthday highlight the birthday person I'm going to show some life footage. But right now Lindsey's our camera girl today she's actually a singer at one of my venues so I'm going to show you how to introduce I'd say "welcome ladies and gentlemen at Starlite Karaoke Thursday night or Tuesday night in Bar in historia, ladies and gentlemen give it up for our good friend Lindsey, they call her Lindser so, so give it up for Lindser" then Lindsey will come up and on my computer I have it all ready program just to push away and it will switch from this song that's playing in the filler music to her song that's she's going to sing. Your going to see the words come up as well. I just have to push go (Lindsey singing) that's it thats how your going to get your singers up, and thank you Lindsey for helping us out. That's it thats the cross from going to regular music to your singers, your going to do that all night long, back and forth and people are going to keep bringing slips up and that's how your going to run your show. And hopefully your smart enough to run your show like a roller coaster and what I mean by that is don't keep it all like one type of music, go energetic music where there dancing slower music where you take it down, and try to have it up and going thing and at the end of course slow it down to some nice easy listening music. Go out there and see what's best for your show.
