"I went out on a Thursday night with 2 male friends for a Karaoke night (which begins at 9PM at this establishment). I was pleasantly surprised by three things: 1)their very cheap drink specials. 2) the extremely friendly staff (bartenders, bar backs as well as security). 3) their food. My guy friends ordered their $1 Miller Lite drink special (as well as other beverages throughout the night). I ordered their Turkey Club sandwich (no cheese, no mayo) with a side of sweet potatoes fries (although I generally opt for healthier fare, this was great for bar food and the fries were not oil soaked so a win for me). The karaoke left much to be desired though....it seemed that 3 women were running the show. The brunette ran the equipment and seemed pleasant, the blonde was on the mic calling out the names of the singer who would be next (she was also pleasant and had a powerful singing voice). The last was...well...offensive at best. We 'd arrived 30 min before they began, ordered food and full priced cocktails and waited patiently for the karaoke to commence. When the karaoke ladies arrived, they put out a clip board for us all to write down our name and the song we wanted to sing. My friend Shawn was 3rd on the board, I was 4th. The 3rd woman came up to me stating that I could not sing the song of my choice because she was already singing it (I looked on the clip board she was holding noted it wasn 't on there). She said 'but I 'm singing it '. I joked and said 'well you better do a great job then '. She said 'oh I will! ' she didn 't. I 'd also noticed she was not going in sequential order, rather selecting who would go next (so although I was 4th on the list, I was the 8th person to sing). Furthermore, it seemed that although the board had plenty of female singers..they kept calling men 's names to sing. The problem I have with the mentioned issues is that in the service industry: 1) the paying customer should get to sing the song trumping the person hired to be there. 2) it 's only fair to go in sequential order (also note: if we 'd been there longer we 've spent more money). 3) don 't make selections of who 's next based on gender (or song or anything it should be fair). In one of my photos I 'd magnified the problematic karaoke worker."
