18+ Karaoke - interest gauge

Post by otakuforlife »

Okay here's the deal! I'm thinking the last hour of every karaoke shift making it
open as far as language and content goes. So the same content rules apply for
music origin but you have no restrictions on the age rating of a song. For example, if you
wanna sing something with swears and "vulgar content" you'd be able to. However that means we
would need to check Id's and would limit the options for people to drop off younger guests
in the karaoke room. So I would like to know what people think, before I start to work out the
details. Agree or Disagree? This is simply for discussion purposes and nothing is set in stone.

I guess I'm not really sure of what 18+ would entail for karaoke... is there really that much anime/game/J-pop or K-pop that have cussing? I can barely think of 2 songs. :|

18+ would probably make karaoke more obscene in other ways besides lyrics xD

Yeah there are some songs where they don't swear but the content is not kid friendly
in the least. But we will see how it goes the last thing we want is to destroy the last 18+ refuge
that late at night
