Man killed for not sharing karaoke microphone

[mercurial]

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia (AP) - Police say a Malaysian man has been stabbed to death by customers at a karaoke bar for singing too much and refusing to share the microphone.

A district police official says witnesses saw a group of men punch and stab 23-year-old Abdul Sani Doli with a knife at the bar late Wednesday in eastern Sandakan town on Borneo island.

The official says a brawl broke out because the men were furious that Abdul Sani was hogging the stage. He says police detained two suspects after Abdul Sani was found dead outside the bar.

Bwahahaha Some people take karaoke very seriously. I remember a guy that even brought his own mic along and rehearsed beforehand.

Are they sure his singing was just not really really bad?

 

[semiautomatix]

I'm sure this kind of thing happens all the time.

Depends on whether he was singing in key or not

Brings new meaning to that famous line "what would you do...if I sang...out of tune..."

I worked for Koreans before and they imported these big karaoke machines, one for the offices, and a few for the houses they stayed in. At that stage our ceo was a korean woman, and once you have heard her sing you can never ever forget it again, no matter how hard you try.....

He got off lightly. Imagine ending up in front of Simon Cowell like some other poor unlucky bastards.
