Maybe it is an area thing with karaoke friendly bartenders that will back their hosts up & help kick the offenders off the stage and possibly out the bar. Like I said, i've never had a problem getting someone off stage that shouldn't be there, and the bartender was nothing more than a 'little girl'. What they say goes 9 out of 10 times.

I usually say something like:

As a friend I have to let you know you've had to much to drink to sing. You seem like a very nice person and I am only trying to help you. You can sing next time you come in.

I have to say I was nervous the first few times I had to do it. Even if I just met them I call them a friend. It seems to make them realize I'm not trying to be mean and I am thinking of them. I usually I get a blank look from them and they walk away. Many times I've gotten thank yous when they've come back in.

I only call for help when someone is giving me a hard time and I can't handle them myself. It's been a long time since that's happened. Some of these people are regulars that just don't realize they've had to much to drink. I don't need to call in the cavalry to deal with them.

I agree though if your dealing with a unruly drunk you should not put yourself in dangers way.
