About

Working with Dave was great. He was punctual and brought all the equipment needed as well as equipment that might have been needed, which we ended up using in the end. He had songs from every genre, old and new. We had a great time and will definitely use his services again. - Nada, Fairfax, Va.

David was easy to work with, accommodating of our guest's karaoke requests, had just the right amount of equipment, was fairly and reasonably priced, and kept the performers coming in and the stream of music flowing. In short, if you are looking for karaoke, I highly recommend him. - Adam, Baltimore, Md.
