There is a neighborhood bar that I love to go to on Friday nights, for karaoke. The KJ is a nice dude with a terrible system. He still uses CDs and his book lists "Achy Breaky Heart" under the "New Releases" section. His equipment sucks, lots of times he can't find the song you've requested, his rotation system is usuallly whacked because the fans and/or AC blows the little request papers all over the place. Last week, I requested Irreplaceable by Beyonce, but he couldn't find that disc, so he subbed a weird country version without telling me first!!! I went through with it, feeling like an idiot. I could go on, but you get the idea.

This is the only bar that is close to my home that has karaoke, and I love the people there- bartenders and customers. Don't want to switch bars- that is not an option.

Don't want to complain against the KJ to the bar owner, either. He is a really nice guy. I have told him that maybe he could get a new computerized system (he is kind of an older dude, and probably stuck technologically speaking) and that the skipping songs/jumbled lyrics on the screen is a bummer. He says he is aware of the bad discs and will get a laptop "soon", lots of excuses about the new CDs were shipped that way.

What to do??? Can I burn my own CDs somehow- I need the lyrics, cuz I am not a good singer!!! Is there a way to get a CD with lyrics and then just hand it to him?

I really love to sing karaoke and want to find a solution.... please help!!!

Before I became a KJ, I used to buy my own discs. Just google cdg and there are many sites to purchase from. Even Wal-mart and Target sell cheaper versions of CDG and you can get relatively new songs. Good Luck!
