I tried to help a KJ get a job where there was an in house system. The guy was looking for a KJ to plug into his amp and speakers. Well what he had and what they had was a totally different ballgame. They didn't get the job. They, as i would wanted to use their entire system. The bar owner got someone else that wasn't nearly as good.
Maybe it had to do with the bar owners feelings being hurt because we refused to hook up to his crap.
You would have a better chance swimming across the Pacific Ocean.
He's already showing you he's too cheap to hire a real KJ. He doesn't care about the sound or the selection. Karaoke to him is just something to make some extra money with.
If he had a good KJ and realized the full money potential that a good KJ could bring in, he wouldn't be so stupid.
He won't change his thinking.
I feel you will be wasting your time. I wouldn't even consider it for myself.
He has his opinion formulated already. He thinks it's doing as good as can be or he has had some very bad KJs before that couldn't build a karaoke night.
I too had lots of ideas when i first started on how i could do this place and that place and had it all figured out in MY mind how it would go. Well trust me, he will only half listen to you, if you walked in wearing a bikini.
His mind is made up and he has (in his mind) made a big investment already in karaoke. Even though he has no clue.
