I had an incredibly bad experience with this company's DJ last night 7/27/13 at Woody's Pizza on Evans. We had a big group outing with maybe 12 or 15 friends and were really looking forward to a fun night out.
First of all Hank, the Jockey in charge, was nearly 45 minutes late getting started. When we asked for the books to look thru and start making our selections, he dismissively started kicking a bag on the floor and said 'they're in there, I'll get em out in a few minutes.", now in my experience, the Jockey will get the books out and get everyone ready to sing before Karaoke is ready to start.
Secondly, the space where Hank was set up was way too small for the volume level he set the sound system at. We politely asked him in a note to turn the music down as a few people from our group left after the first song. Also other patrons were also leaving because of it being too loud. Instead of just discretely turning the volume down, he decided to spend the next five minutes making fun of us for the note. He was rude and sarcastic. Woody's manager spoke with him about being rude, this didn't stop Hank from degrading us further.
Thirdly, Hank had no sense of timing and pacing, he spent several minutes between singers just babbling, not letting people sing.
If I ever come across this company running Karaoke and specifically Hank running it, I will not patronize that establishment. I don't see myself going back to Woody's on Evans regardless if they have Karaoke or not.... read more
