Let me tell you boys and girls.....I hate Karaokes! I hate DJ's who do Karaokes! I hate DJ's who get paid more than bands when they do Karaokes! And I hate pubs and clubs who use DJ's who get paid more than bands they do Karaokes! I really hate Karaokes... they make me so mad!
I think that all you muso's out there in big Worcester Sauceland should get together and dance on the graves of those fecking Karaoke DJ's and their children and their wives and their children's children, just to make a point. Fecking Karaokes are the biggest threat to live music since some stupid berk decided that disco's were the way to go in the 1970's - and look where that got us - fecking Boy George, Adam Ant and fecking Haircut 100!
I hate Karaokes so much that I think I will employ an Albanian mafia agent to knee-cap every Karaoke DJ in the city and if that don't work, contract a pyro to torch every venue that employs Karaoke DJ's!
Now these Karaoke DJ's may be nice people. That decent Mr Amis who lives down by The New Chequers is an okay bloke during the day. He works for the council and does a decent 9 to 5 job. But at night he hauls out is Mega Watt PA and Plasma screen graphics driver from his pre-fab garage and trundles off down the road in his Ford Focus GT Delux to run a Karaoke at the local boozer - and he gets paid bog bucks for doing eff all!
Now equate that with the lot of a muso. You may be one in fact. Now our local muso has to work pretty hard at building up a set of decent songs (some covers, some his/her own). After that there is long practise sessions, get a demo CD together and then getting around to every fecking open mic venue in the COUNTY to build up a reputation. Then if things go nicely a score or two may be in hand at the end of the night...... if he/she is very lucky.
Now boys and girls that is just not right is it? That nice Mr Amis who does feck all to progress the likes of local music gets mega dosh for doing bugger all and our muso friend who works the pubs and clubs playing proper LIVE music gets bugger all for doing something really decent and worthwhile! There ain't no justice boys and girls, is there?
So now you know why I hate fecking Karaokes... and please don't get me started on those dipstick punters who think they can sing (sic) at Karaoke sessions - they are just the pits... and as for "Angels"...I fecking hate that song too!
