  Here's the easiest way to find nearby Karaoke. Use the WCIS App, get it here - http://onelink.to/5syt2j Available in every country and town in the world. This is just a sample. If you don't see any pins nearby (or details in the dropdowns), tell your local Host to add their events. Hosts, add your pin for free here. Unlike Facebook, you DO NOT need to post the details every single event. Just verify it is still running once every three months (this is just so that outdated details are automatically removed). NO Credit Card required - https://admin.connect.whatcanising.com

A free Karaoke directory -  I bet you are thinking "It's been tried a dozen times and failed every time because the listings become out of date, and they are not accurate, and the list becomes too big, and you have to keep posting the gig week after week after week, over and over". What if I told you that we solved all 4 problems! How did we do it? The first thing to fix was the list. So we made ours Map based. We still kept the "list view" but we made the list populate in order of "Closest to you". We made this much more user friendly than doom scrolling through an endless list trying to figure out what was near the user. Second thing to fix is the initial accuracy. Hosts, Venues and Singers can add the gigs. But we VERIFY every entry. This means there are no "dummy" or "test" entries added. We also made it so ANYONE can add the Gigs. Singers who want this available will add them. Venues who want their details displayed can add th...

Why Can't I See My State or Town. This is something we are asked occasionally. The reason why it doesn't appear - your local host just hasn't sigend up yet. Hosts are able to use our admin panel to add their venues. And as soon as they do, the dropdown boxes will update to include the new details. Why do we do this?  Imagine if we added every city in the world into the App even if it didn't have an active venue. You would be scrolling through hundreds of cities that didn't have an active venue, just to find the ones that were active. Imagine how frustrating and time consuming that would be!! We'd rather just give you the locations where it IS active. The Host App looks a bit different. You might notice that we give some links to Hosts. We try to make it as easy as possible for them to ad their info. Why not let everyone add details? We only allow Hosts to add their venues because if somebody else added it, and the Host didn't know it was there, that could g...

We are commonly told by Hosts that they think a digital platform will reduce their interaction. It is normal to think this way. The reality is very different though. There are 3 things that come into play in relation to this.   Their perception has not been tested. When I was a kid, I used to think that if I jumped high enough, I could touch the moon. Well I tested that theory and proved it wrong. They haven’t obtained all of the information available to make a great conclusion/decision. Would you plan a ski holiday without first checking to see when the snow season was? They are basing their decision on a bad product. Would you never buy another car again just because you previously owned a Pinto or an Edsel? We have added functionality that has seen our customers able to increase the interaction with their singers. So if that is of interest to you, we have the benefits. Here are just a couple of examples. When the singer submits a request, they get an acknowledgement sc...

Why Do We Have Account Creation?  Without an account, you would miss out on many of our "unique user functions". With an account, you can save a favourites list and even get a copy of your History. The Host can also send you a "it's your turn next message" when you have an account. The App uses the minimal data possible to operate and this data is not shared with anyone - the App stores now force us to provide data information to the user. If we are not following protocols, they will remove the App from their stores. Minimum Data Required to Create An Account; Something that looks like an email address - this can be fake, but using a real one will allow you to recover your account if you forget your password.  First and last name - These can be stage names or nicknames so that doesn't even need to be real - just what you would like the Host to call you.  A picture - can be a photo of your cat or even your beer. This is just to help the Host know who you are....
