...my feelings weren't hurt because this didn't come from the managers, the waiters/staff or the singers. but it raises the interesting question, what stock does this 'minority' of non-karaoke regulars have in my karaoke?
It really raises the question of what kind of class do these people have. That takes total balls for someone to come up to you and propose a question like that (and making it sound like you'd be a really small person to refuse their request). It should never have been brought up to you by them in the first place. If anything, those Regulars should have just approached the Venue's Manager (or Bar Staff) privately, and stated that they weren't crazy about you being a KJ there, and express their wishes that Management find someone to replace you (assuming they didn't do that already).
ah, I still don't take it personal. I don't think it was meant personal at all. Again, I've been at this venue for years--coming up on a decade.
I figured it out what they're trying to tell me without going to managers. To me, I'm a "karaoke singer's KJ". For some reason, I don't cater to dancers and avoid playing dance sets. At my shows, karaoke is the star. Singers are cool with it. But bystanders like this crew of regulars who don't participate in karaoke at all wouldn't mind dancing a lot more. They see this other KJ as someone who'd be more dance-friendly to them. Thats the way I'm understanding it.
