    Looking For A Track

    I have been desperately trying to find the version of "I'll Always Love You" by the male artist that was heard by WH's character in the movie "The Bodyguard". Of COURSE I don't know the artist's name... Any help?

    Bar & Club Hearing more about BMI, ASCAP, SESAC, etc..?

    I was wondering if anyone outside of my area has been noticing more activity from these so-called "artist organizations" ( you know, the ones the artists have to sue to get what is theirs?) around your venues/bars lately. They seem to have upped their pace dramatically in my area, and I was...

    Another Reason I Prefer Discs AND PLAYER

    I was doing a bar show the other night and my vocal reverb/echo/ delay crapped out on my mixer ( as you may have guessed, a blown PLL- but I couldn't change it in mid- show). Keeping in mind that I'm a Karaoke Host, proper vocal effects are a neccesity! Well, most quality CD+G players come...

    A Suggestion To Help Those Of Us Who...

    ... Use our business PC to enter the forum: If you have something interesting to share in a new thread, it would be helpful if you copied and pasted a site page, rather than a link. Speaking for myself, I never open links to unknown sites on a business PC for security reasons. So...

    Need Help With A PRINTER?

    I like to think that I'm an electronic genius, but I can't figure this one out. I have an HP Deskjet V40 printer. It uses one black ink cartridge, and one tri-color cartridge. For whatever reason, they designed it so it won't work if either cartridge is out. This means that even if I select...

    Music That Isn't Out There, But You Found It Anyway?

    One of the new cars that I bought back in the day came with an sample CD to be used as a demo on the sound system. Included on this disc was a track that has become my theme song, played at all my shows: Luis Jordan's "Chartreuse". I have never seen a commercially available CD that...

    Have You Ever Just Missed One?

    Believe it or not, I heard Sheryl Crow's "A Change Would Do You Good" last night for the first time! I commented to the Goddess that this was a hot song and a good dance tune as well! I wondered how new it was....She looked at me like I had 3 heads and told me it came out in 2003. Some...

    What's your definition of BIG RIG

    This was inspired by the thread regarding turning down aan event if your equipment wasn't up to it.... I have 4 setups ( different amps and speakers matched for each): 5000w, 3500w, 1800w, and the mini @ 750w ( Yes, I can stack, but for purposes of this question I'm talking about...

    Something Cool To Do With The TV...

    Though I have cable, I went ahead and sent for 2 rebate cards for DTV boxes, and bought them last summer. Total one time cost: $12 per. My intention is to use them if cable ever goes out. Even though the switchover has yet to happen, I put an A/B switch on the TV, with cable running to...

    Wedding Songs

    I was originally going to post this in Karaoke House, because it's a list of karaoke wedding songs, posted by a friend on a karaoke forum. However, I can't see why these wouldn't do well as straight DJ music, so WEDDING HITS After All-Che & Peter Cetera All For Love-Bryan Adams, Sting &...

    Privacy Issues?

    Nope because there no longer IS any. However, much of that is our own fault. We get lazy, or get attracted to bells and whistles, etc... Well, I never bought this up before, but I'm kind of a private guy- and work at it. My internet accounts are not under my name, but an in-law's...

    Wedding Burnout?

    I no longer accept weddings, having learned to hate dealing with 16 people, all of whom feel that they are "The" Go To Person, and all the other high stress BS. OK, that's just me. This may well have been a symptom of "wedding burnout"- or, maybe weddings ARE a major PITA for the money ( I...
