"SINGER ROTATION" is one of the most important topics of Karaoke. The Rotation is most
important to singers because it is the order singers requests are received and therefore, the same order in which singers are called to the stage to sing. The "Party Gras" Karaoke rotation works. Our standard has beenset .. it is a standard of fairness to everyone wishing to sing. "Party Gras" Karaoke wants all wishing to sing, to have the opportunity to sing & as many times as the size of the rotations and time will allow.
!!! . THE EXERCISE OF PATIENCE . !!!
First, We Ask Everyone To Be Ready To Exercise Patience. As more singers submit requests, the rotation grows .. now there will be more singers performing between your appearances on stage. Enjoy the performances of others & show your appreciation of their effort .. It Will Come Back To You .. This is a big part to what makes karaoke Enjoyable & Fun.
!!! . ATTEMPTS TO HOG THE SPOTLIGHT . !!!
Unfortunately, there are those who do try to buck the system.In Simple Words .. IT IS NOT FAIR & Will Not Be Tolerated. Here is an important reminder note: The "Party Gras" Host is in charge of the show at all times & No One is exempt from the Rotation Rules. From "Party Gras" family relatives to the President .. Establishment owners or personal in positions of establishment management ..
No One is exempt .. Here's the way it works.
!!! . "PARTY GRAS" GUIDELINES & TIPS . !!!
These Suggested Tips Are Openly Offered To Everyone (Solos . Duets . Trios . Groups)
1. When you arrive or at such time thereafter that you want to sing, search the "Party Gras" SongCatalog .. locate the songs you want to sing.
2. At this time Completely Fill Out 2 or 3 Song Request Slips of the songs that you want to sing .. Neatly Printing the Song Number, Song Title and Your Name on each.
3. Give the "Party Gras" Host A SINGLE request slip for the first song you wish to sing.
That request will be placed into the rotation in the order it was received. ( "Do Not Submit" another request, as a solo, duet, trio or group, until you are called to the stage to perform).
4. When you are called on stage to perform your previously requested song, give the "Party Gras" Host your next request slip as you are handed the microphone .. this request is placed in rotation in the order it was received ..1 song per singer per rotation.
(Duets, Trios & Groups)
Most singers at the "Party Gras" Shows use The Guides Of Fairness & Performers Common Sense.
Singers: Whether you are performing Solo, in a Duet, Trio or Group, know your approximate place in the rotation, where you have been, are or will be, before submitting any additional Solo request or
Signing On with someone else in a Duet, Trio or Group. Honest Efforts to balance your stage appearances will eliminate perceptions that you are a "Stagehog". In times of heavy singer rotation, singing in duets, trios, or groups will count as turn in the rotation for each participant in said duet,
trio or group performance.
(Using An Alias Or Nickname)
Many performers use a name on the song request form other than their given name. This is acceptable, but whether you're using your given name, alias or nickname, continue using the same name on all of your requests. Attempts to acquire more than one appearance per rotation is not acceptable.
Example: "Y" & "Z" are alias names for the same Singer "X". In this example we definitely have a premeditating "Stage-hog". It's Not Acceptable! The "Party Gras" Host upon seeing the perpetrator advancing to the stage will skip the "Stage hog" and call the next legitimate singer in the rotation.
Following these guidelines will allow the show and singers rotation to flow smoothly & as quickly as possible, allowing more singers & song selections to be performed.
