I’m curious, what do you mean by hardcore karaoke people?
As an aside, I went to a brewery with karaoke and there was a huge group that all seemed to know each other, including one guy who brought his trumpet and alternated between singing and playing (on multiple songs)
So think of that group; they are all talented, they have fun, and are all smiles. Not them. Those are normal musically inclined people (probably, I don’t know them, I’m using them as an example).
Now take one of them, make them demand everyone they got to karaoke with sing, regardless of ability or comfort, pick songs for people who don’t get up, call people out via microphone onto stage, and then wonder why they don’t have friends. That’s hardcore karaoke people.
I went from going out to karaoke to buy rounds and cheer on friends to meeting three of these over enthusiastic malcontents and never wanting to go again.
I was once hit on by two 60+ men (i was in my 20s) who were very pushy at a karaoke bar and these karaoke people are still my worst memories of being at karaoke.
