I quit my local residency tonight, usually do Karaoke in dunfermline at local, they asked me at the start how much i charged, i said usually £150, but said i would do it for £120 for them, they asked if they could get it at £100 for first 4 weeks as trade was very slow - i agreed
5 weeks later they came back to me and were preaching that they were at bankrupcys door and asked if they could drop it to £60 until they got on thier feet - i said yes but if other bookings came in then i would end up taking them and they would need to find alternative entertainment, that lasted a few weeks till i got fed up and made up some excuses that i couldn't do this weekend or that weekend etc due to bookings (out of 5 weekends that i took off only 1 was for a proper bookiing) anyhow i found out that whilst i took those nights off they booked someone who charged them £140 and they paid in full...so i went in tonight and said I am sorry but not doing karaoke no more as i dont like to be taken advantage off - and i explained why i felt like this.
i did the karaoke as i had only decided this tonight as such
Has this happened to anyone else?
Also I have now decided to give up karaoke altogether - i am gonna tick to Disco's - no money in Karaoke anymore eh...
