BREAKING IMPORTANT KARAOKE NEWS

The United States Karaoke Alliance is a group of Karaoke Companies that have joined forces in order to try to better our industry and our local Karaoke Club Scenes. 

We believe in honesty, integrity, professionalism, and good clean karaoke FUN!

We have put together this code of ethics that all of our companies must follow to be members.
 

United States Karaoke Alliance ( USKA ) Code of Ethical Requirements

 The United States Karaoke Alliance is a group of Professional Karaoke Companies that have banded together in an effort to create a more positive, more professional environment in the karaoke industry.  Foremost we love music and want to create good, clean, honest fun for other music lovers and also create revenues for the clubs that host our services.   

We openly invite other Karaoke Companies to join us in our efforts and be part of our group.  As a member of the Alliance a company must meet the requirements of and comply with the following code of ethics. 

1.        Technology and Music Selection - We support the latest in technology. It allows for higher quality shows with less skipping discs, better fill time between songs by using upbeat classic party music, and safety in protecting discs from being stolen or damaged at a show.  However our members must be legal.  If using mp3 type of player, CAVS type player, computer or burned discs, you must have one to one copies for each system. If you company is running 3, 4 or 5 shows per night then you should be purchasing and have in your inventory that same corresponding number of copies. 

2.        Insurance - While we do not require it we highly recommend Liability insurance for your shows.  This is to protect your vested interest and covers you in case the bar requires you to have insurance. .  A small annual fee in exchange for peace of mind. It is strongly recommended for your protection.  Members of the USKA have the ability to add discounted insurance via the WEDJ insurance policy and their membership.   USKA Members demonstrate a desire to do business ethically and professionally.  See www.uskaraokealliance.com for benefits.

3.        License or Trade name - Any legitimate business must have a business license or a certification of their tradename.  Hobbyists (who do this as a side job) often disappear leaving bars stuck at the last moment and often hide illegal music or sub par equipment by not having a valid license so they can be tracked.  This is also to protect you personal assets if you are unfortunate enough to be sued.  Keep your business and personal assets separate. 

4.        Training Program - We are currently working on an actual Karaoke Hosting Certification.. We actively train all hosts in MC skills, reading crowds, dealing with issues, and music and equipment theory in respect to adjustments and troubleshooting.  Companies can use our program or show us their current methods to be included in the certification procedure.

5.        Best for venue principles - Each of our bars are encouraged to identify any problems with a show , music or hosts to their hosting companies. If a member hosting company is having an issue we promise to listen to club owners and discuss issues with the company.  Being proactive helps all of us!

6.        Drinking – Smoking - Working in a bar environment as an entertainer is a bit different from most places.  Many bars like the host to loosen up a bit or help with pitching of drinks... Our hosts will always announce your bar specials and will always pitch your drinks.  If you do not want your host drinking let them know and they will not drink at your show... Hosts agree to take limited smoke breaks and never allow those breaks to interrupt the show.  Hosts are never to be out of control, use foul language, or act unprofessionally.  As companies we agree to supervise this and act upon any related issue from any club. 

Now enough boring stuff.  Check out some fun things:
