Spring League Rules:
-Singing begins at 9pm.
-There are 2 rounds in which everyone sings once.
-Singing order is chosen by a random number generator that I use on the internet.
-The singing order won't be posted. Hopefully everyone will show up on time. Anyone missing their turn will have to sing immediately upon arrival.
-Sometimes, people have to leave early, I get that. Feel free to let me know when you arrive that night.
-Just like jury duty, you could be asked to judge atleast one night that you don't sing on. If this isn't an option for you, please let me know ASAP.
- if you can't make it for whatever reason, don't call me during the day. If you feel you must let me know, text me after 9pm. 306-270-2068
-make friends and be supportive of others.
Scoring: Spring League
process will change as per Karaoke World Championship guidelines. There are now 3 categories with 2 pertaining to vocals and 1 specifically for performance.
0 - 10 pts pitch/key
0 - 10 pts emotion in voice
0 - 10 pts presentation
So, a total of 30 pts could be handed out per song.
Tips:
- try and sing to everyone in the room (especially judges).
- be aware of how loud you are. Try to not scream or yell into the mic. A good note that is too loud is just as bad as a flat one at times.
-smile, enjoy yourself.
-don't just stand in the corner looking up at the monitor, give us a show. Karaoke is for the people
who sing on the weekends.
-don't get caught up in the competitive part of things. Not everyone is in it for that reason!
-grow a thick skin. One week you may be first, the next week you may be last. Some of you could be last every week! There are people in this league who've done this for over ten years. Be in competition with yourself and no one else.
-judges like different things. Get used to that.

Comments
Okay, I guess I should start by saying that I really don’t like the way that I’ve been doing the comments the last little while. I’ve been doing it at work, while you sing, one song at a time. I much prefer to sit back the next day and write everything out and try to re-live the night as a whole instead of fragmented parts. Unfortunately, I’ve got some hazards of life that have interrupted my work schedule, hopefully temporarily. But until then, this will have to be the way I do things in the comments section.
Caleb, Stuck Like glue, was a little pitchy. It is tough to go first but you embraced it well. Nice use of hands and facial gestures. Chattahoochie had good pitch and it was a nice performance! Good work. Tia, Mama’s Broken Heart, first of all good costume. You sounded a little winded during the performance and you were ahead of the song in places. I thought the performance was quite good. With Crazy, you had a lot of visual stuff that was very entertaining. Vocals weren’t 100% but like I said, I was entertained. Jeremy, with Fancy, the timing was off a little early on. After that one instance, everything went smoothly. The Taylor Swift song had nice steady vocals that had good pitch and timing. Jamie, Tennessee Whiskey had good props, good vocals and a good performance overall. With Rainbow, the vocals were upgraded to GREAT. Nice use of your friend Tia as a prop. It set up a good story that made me want to really listen to what the song was about. Becky, Wide Open Spaces, great outfit. It really suited the song and the them in general, especially the pig tails! Sweet vocals and nice stage movements. With Burn, you reminded me a little of Brigit Wilfong who likes to just pin her ears back and “go for it” You went for it. Personally, I’d have lowered the key by a half, but you had to work for some of those notes in that song. Emery, Bop had a good groove going for it. The cowboy hat was a nice touch. All in all, really good job in vocals and performance. You muffed the end a bit, but who cares? With Tennessee Whiskey you had those nice smoky sounding vocals working for you. However, you did short change us by not going for those high notes in places. Kim, Girl Crush sounded great. I’m glad you stood up from that chair, I’d have been really disappointed if you sat thru the entire performance. With Little Red Wagon, you had great energy and a great attitude. It was fun to watch and listen to. Jaedyn, you started off with Rusty Cage, and I have to say there were no complaints from me on that song. With Get Rhythm, you were hard to hear at times because you were holding that mic too far at times and other times, at the side of your face almost. We gotta hear you bud! Brad, Friends in Low Places, probably the funnier things I’ve seen done in Karaoke League. Attaching an electrified dog collar to your arm and then having your dad hit the remote and shock you was priceless. With Mr. Mom you were on key and doing a lot of stuff while you sing. I just need you to be more conscious or aware of how close you were holding the microphone. At times, it was so close, I could hear the speaker rattling. At that point, it just sounds distorted. Jocelyne, great job of Let Your Love Flow. Nice big smile and cowboy hat, sounded great. Same story for Love in the First Degree. Traci, on Cleopatra you had a great, powerful voice. Nice costume and a memorable performance. Good song choice. Take it Back, no problems to mention, just good entertainment. Chantelle……wow. That yodelling tune, my God. You sounded fantastic, looked wonderful and I have to say, I was so captivated by you that I totally forgot to snap pictures of you until the end. On 9 to 5 you had a good Dolly Parton out fit, perfect pitch as always, and a commendable performance. Another good week from you. Brady, Home of the blues, you really did a great impersonation of Johnny Cash, in my opinion. You had the voice and the “look” really working for you. As Good As I Once Was, another direct hit! You had really good timing on both of you songs last night. You knew them well, good work tonight Brady! Christine, Redneck Woman, you certainly looked country. Very nice work with everything you did in that song. The one thing I have to point out was that your eyes were glued to the TV monitor. Girl Crush also sounded very good however, you were still focused on that TV screen. Lenore, Crazy sounded good and you had on a very nice Dollar Store hat, lol. Good job Lenore. On Baton Rouge, you were a little behind in the timing but your pitch was good. Denis, Smell the Rain was your first song. Mr Metal Meets Blackhawk. You really nailed that sucker in my opinion. Good vocals, great emotion. On Son of a Sinner, lots of passion coming from you. Whether it was an act or real, I couldn’t tell the difference. Good song. You were a cowboy right down to your boots! Thank you to Claire and Justin for coming out and adjudicating the Tuesday group. All in all, it was a pretty flawless evening.

Kasey, Country song was funny. You’ve got great comedic timing! Mooo was that country? Hahaha. Love your acting! Fun stuff. Ambrose you did Killin Time. Little crackle in the voice early on but you got thru it and did a good job. Honky Tonk Man good confidence on that tune. Nice show Ambrose. Melody Puss n Boots just like Kasey, you’ve got a knack for the humour and you managed to give a good show without getting out of your chair. Show them to Me great stage show and great job organizing it! Ashley, nice job of Fall to Pieces. Vocals were perfect! Emotional Girl such power vocals but I’ve said that many times. Nice floor show lol. Cat, I Hope You Dance, the vocals were nice, strong and on pitch. Before He Cheats the bat was a good touch, I think we got the point. Vocals were pretty good Cat. Elyssa you did who’s bed. You looked great and the performance was equally as great! Vocals sounded sweet! Gun Powder and Lead, nice in house murder lol. Vocals were really good as was the performance. Ryder, Freebird does qualify. If that song ain’t country then neither is Garth Brooks. Great vocals buddy! I liked the air guitar and you really looked like you were into it. Saturday Night Special nobody has ever sang that great song for league ever! Loved hearing it. You did it justice. Shauna the Queen of Hearts, great costume wow! Nice energy and I loved the smile on your face throughout. Vocals were bang on! Ain’t Goin Down had good stage movement and the vocals were good too! Brianna and Life is a Highway, good idea. Good vocals but you sounded a little winded as you began to remove the helmet, gloves etc. then you caught your breath and finished strong. Better Dig Two, very dramatic. Great costume and makeup as was the singing. Kim That’s what I Like About You was a good performance, no problems nothing to fix just good stuff. Done, you were a little aggressive with poor Shimmy. Tara, Rodeo Song, lots of action up there! I felt your hatred lol! Cry Pretty much more your style of song with lots of passion and emotion in your every move. Jeremy, Amarillo Sky lots of passion and power in that tune. Thanks for not rushing the judges table lol. Quiet your Mind was powerful where it had to be and quiet in the mellow spots. Megan, My Baby Loves Me, I haven’t heard that song for years! Very good vocals Megan with some heart felt emotion. Keep Your Hands to Yourself funny stuff and well sang. No means no, remember that. Riana, Rose Garden, maybe a little nervous last night? Try To Think About Elvis much better. You have got to compensate for the key when it goes up a semi tone later in the song. Shimmy, Country Girl, lol. I’d give you perfect ten for performance! You do country pretty good for a rock star! Somebody Like You, sounded pretty good Mr. Country! Couple timing issues but what the hell! Rebecca, Good Girl thanks for including me in the show. Vocals, wow!! Mamas Broken Heart great vocals great show but you lost the timing near the end. Crystal the Heartaches on Me, a little blip here and there but I liked what you did. Before He Cheats little pitchy in spots but after the camera flash you sang it a little better. It must have snapped you back into reality?! Thank you Jamie and Tia for giving up your Thursday night.
Comments
Ok, just a few quick comments about everybody's songs last night. Sara, Great full tone to your voice on Live Like You Were Dying. You might like the heavier stuff, but the country really suits you. On Better Things to Do, you owned that song! Bravo! Darla, Tennessee Whiskey, awesome!......moving on now. Done, you were so intense and so very entertaining. Great timing too btw! Melissa, Danced Anyway you had some nice stage movement. Your vocals were on key and you looked as cute as a button! With Whatever You Say, you had beautiful vocals and a very good overall performance. Ramona, Harper Valley PTA definitely would've made mom proud. Wonderfully done, your vocals were terrific. On Pour Me, you added Tim to the mix just for some extra visuals. It worked well. That is a great upbeat song that you always do so well. Lisa, Hands on You sounded more dreamy blues than country but it doesn't matter to me. Let's face it Taylor Swift is considered country??? Vocals sounded great. On Tornado the track was way off. Good on you for continuing. It seemed like you were ok if you didn't look at the screen. Dawson, our second shot of Tennessee Whiskey of the night. Different person singing it but the result was obviously really good. Good job. On Your Man, you had nice rich vocals reaching way down to the cellar floor. That was a really good song for you. Justin, Seminole Wind you had some good vocals and nice emotion to your voice. Good idea bringing up the violin on that tune. You is a country boy! Fishin in the Dark, a little problem with timing early on but you rebounded nicely. It sounded good. Thanks for the Justin Salt show at the end of the night. When everyone leaves early, you really get to sing alot, don't you. Scott, Free and Easy. You are 100% a performer, yes you are! And, you do love your country music. Sold, is your kind of song, being very upbeat just like you are. Couple of flubs here and there but whatever, we can't always be perfect. Danyal, Put Your Bra On....interesting song. Little pitchy here and there but you made it fun. With Mother Divine, I liked the performance and the vocals were pretty good too. Nice move playing air guitar on the shovel. It looked really cool. Tim, Time Marches On you had great vocals as usual. Lots of emotion in your voice but I'm looking for a little more performance from you buddy. Little Bitty showed your great vocal ability again but try to incorporate a few more hand/facial gestures and utilize that big square area of floor a little more. Donna, Cowboys Sweetheart was a little scratchy on some of the yodeling but you had good timing and pitch. Give a Dam, again you had great timing and pitch. It was a good night of performing for you. You definitely picked the right songs. Lin, Baby Girl, nice outfit. I thought you sang it really well. With My Church, you had a nice performance but vocally you weren't getting those high notes "that's my church". However, you were smart enough to kick it down an octave lower and do the part. Kealy, More Hearts Than Mine, you started strong out of the gate with some confidence and purpose to your voice. Your timing was good on that song. White Liar, you were behind on the chorus while the verses seemed to be pretty good for the most part. I'm sorry, but I used to be a drummer and timing means everything. Having someone sing out of time to me is like watching english voices dubbed in a chinese movie, it's a little frustrating. David, Red Solo Cup, little pitchy on the chorus. Good job at always doing a little better each week. Although results might not always show it, you're definitely goin in the right direction. Save a Horse, nice props. Again, a little pitchy throughout the song. Just slightly sharp throughout. Bruce, Nothin Bout You, your timing was actually really good. Well done. Wasted on You, awww, that timing monster reared it's ugly head again. However it was only in a few places so that's positive. Claire, Last Name was about as animated as I've seen you. Good work. I Wanna Fall In Love not quite as good as song #1 but still pretty good. Jordan Man of Constant Sorrow, nice little song and dance buddy. Great vocals and nice performance. With Tennessee Whiskey maybe you'd have benefitted with it in a lower key. It sounded like you were straining to get some of those notes, however you did have a ton of vocal emotion. Ryder and Elyssa, thank you for judging a night where you were probably familiar with a third of the songs. Sometimes that can be a good thing.
