I apologize if this is in the wrong section ..?
WITHOUT getting too personal I thought it might be cool ..from a networking perspective to find out . Besides either singing or KJ'ing what do you do for a living?

I don't know ..In difficult times we maybe be able to "help" eachother besides karaoke ?


My full time job and the "industry" I've been involved in for 30 years is the STEEL SERVICE CENTER industry and now STEEL IMPORTING ..both which are at a complete STANDSTILL due to the economy.

My other "business" interest is a Comercial Cleaning Company which I've owned and run for over 10 years. I have 2 employees and we handle commercial offices etc. general cleaning and maintenance. I don't get involved in residential cleaning..that stiff is insane !! You could never clean some ones home like they want it !! LOL

How about you ?

I'm the web editor-type person for Lucky Voice, the private karaoke chain of bars in the UK.

(Yes, I know how lucky I am to be able to do this for a living!)

I also write a music blog in my spare time and am a bit of a web nerd...

Also lucky enough to have this as my only job. Outside of the karaoke/singing world I tend to be a bit of a deviant, I like challenging (irrational) laws, dying my hair bright colors and rejecting social conventions like opening curtains. I also love psychology, the avant garde and baking bread. Similar to Johnny five I crave input, but also have a passion for helping those around me reach their full potential.

Have a go at it.


OK... My full-time job is that of a Mainframe Computer Operator. I monitor a console for different messages, answer the phone with User problems, and interact with other support areas to solve those issues. For the most part, I monitor our Batch Processing in the evening, to make sure the jobs are running OK, and that we meet our critical deadlines. I have been with my comp[any for 27 1/2 years now.

I'm an office manager for an accounting office. I'm stuck behind a desk by day, so being a karaoke host is a nice alterego.

When I started hosting I was a nurse....
But I had a fall some time before that injured my knee. My duties were very limited because of it. After the last surgery, I came home and promptly fell down the stairs and broke my (good) foot, and with the prognosis that my knee will never get any better, I am now just a host.
I would love to be back nursing as I miss it, and the people I worked with, but I do make more money hosting than I did nursing.

I own a small consulting business focusing on e-commerce. I do computer programming and system administration for that, when they can get me to work instead of travel and sing. 8-)

I'm retired, for about 10 years now. My field was automotive, master certified. I owned my own 8 bay shop for a number of years when I retired due to some old war injuries from the Nam that has come back to haunt me big time. I'm rated well over 100% disabled by the VA. I operate a number of web sites on the side and take in as much Karaoke as my old worn down body can handle.

As a hobby, and out of necessity, to save money, I used to build computers. I can still throw together a desktop and I could probably do the same with a laptop, but I just can't be bothered anymore.
And I still get people wanting me to fix their computers. I haven't the patience anymore.

By day i'm a super hero, and by night a super villain!!! Just kidding. The day job keeps me right behind a computer desk detailing drawing for a steel building manufacturer. Really a good job, makes me think hard sometimes (anyone got an aspirin?). Quite challenging sometimes, but fun for the most part.

As far as other hobbies go besides karaoke? I garden, fish, and like to tinker with old cars. Not to mention I am a full time dad with sons that keep me guessing all the time.
