Karaoke Night

Karaoke with rules, mercy, and a working microphone.

A good karaoke night needs a host, not just a laptop with opinions. DJ Fiddlesticks brings the rotation, the sound, the rules, the DJ breaks, and enough emergency charm to keep the wheels on.

What you get

Six things a laptop cannot do.

A hosted karaoke night is not a playlist. It is a managed social experiment with better sound.

Hosted Rotation

Fair turns, clear order, and a host who can hold the room between songs without making it weird.

Clean Vocal Sound

The singer hears themselves. The room hears the song. Nobody sounds like they are calling from a parking garage.

Wireless Mics

Two wireless microphones staged for quick handoff. Duets, callouts, and crowd rescues without hunting for a cable.

Request Flow

QR-friendly request system. Bring the title, or accept the host's mercy. Either way, the queue moves.

DJ Breaks

When the room needs oxygen between brave decisions, the DJ steps in. No dead air. No awkward silence. No problem.

Room Control

Pacing, energy management, announcements, and the occasional gentle redirect when someone needs it.

How the rotation works

One song. One turn. No exceptions worth arguing about.

The rotation is fair, which means it will not always feel fair. That is how fair works.

The Basic Law

  • One song equals one turn. The rotation does not care how good your last performance was.
  • The host controls the order. The list is managed for flow, not alphabetical justice.
  • Duets count as one turn. Both singers. One slot. Split the glory.
  • Be ready when called. If you are not at the mic in a reasonable amount of time, the next singer goes up. The host will find you again.

The Equipment Law

  • Do not grab the microphone. The host will hand it to you. Grabbing it from the stand uninvited is a fast way to start your turn on the wrong foot.
  • Do not touch the mixer. The sound is already set. The mixer is not a suggestion box.
  • Do not adjust the monitor. If you cannot hear yourself, tell the host. That is what the host is for.

The Request Law

Requests are welcome. Vague requests are handled with mercy, not malice.

  • If you request "something with a vibe," bring the title or accept whatever the host picks. Both outcomes are legal.
  • If the song is not in the library, the host will tell you. This is not a negotiation.
  • If you want to request from your seat, use the QR code at the bar or the Request Booth link below.

House law

The Sacred Rules of Karaoke.

Posted at shows. Enforced with a smile. Non-negotiable.

The Sacred Rules of Karaoke poster — full text listed below
The poster. The law. The vibe.

Accessible text version

  1. You are here to have fun. Act like it.
  2. One song per turn. Wait your turn.
  3. Be ready when your name is called. If you miss your slot, you go to the back of the list.
  4. Do not touch the equipment. Not the mixer. Not the monitor. Not the laptop. Not the microphone stand.
  5. The host controls the rotation. The host's decision is final. The host is not your enemy.
  6. Duets are welcome. Both singers must be present and willing.
  7. Requests need a title and an artist. "Something fun" is not a title.
  8. Respect the room. Respect the other singers. Respect the microphone.
  9. If you break a rule, you get a warning. If you break it again, you get a seat.
  10. The host reserves the right to end any performance that becomes a safety issue or a public health incident.

These rules exist so everyone gets a good night. They are not a punishment. They are the reason the room still works at last call.

Request Booth

Drop the song. Keep the peace.

Requests are open during karaoke nights. Use the QR code at the bar or the link below. Bring the title. Bring the artist. Leave the vibe description at home.

How requests work

The request system is open during karaoke nights. Here is what happens when you send one:

  • Your request goes into the queue. The host reviews it.
  • If the song is in the library, it gets added to the rotation.
  • If the song is not available, the host will let you know and offer an alternative if one exists.
  • Requests do not jump the rotation. They join it.
  • Requests without a title and artist are handled at the host's discretion, which may or may not go the way you hoped.

Karaoke Rig
