Welcome to the first ALL “Digital Edition” of Karaoke Scene Magazine.

“Karaoke Scene Digital” has proved to be so popular among Karaoke enthusiasts around the world that we now have many more digital readers than “paper” readers. Lifestyles have been changing so rapidly that it has been hard for some publications to keep up. People want their information NOW and don’t want to have to wait until they arrive at another location to pick up a physical copy of a publication. We have made the transition to serve that need.

Virtually EVERYBODY now owns a cell phone, tablet, computer or other electronic reading device, and they most certainly know just how to use them. This means that all of our fabulous features are accessible 24-7 to anyone, anytime! We are proud to say that, like many other major publications (including most recently, Newsweek), we have now successfully made the transition top all digital. For those of you who haven’t tried it yet, it is a great experience. All of the features of the former printed edition plus live links to advertisers, products and special videos, etc. Want to know who offers Karaoke shows on a given night? Want to review an article or check out an ad for a product or service? All this and more are instantly available to you anytime you want it. What could be cooler than that? It is the absolute best way to explore the world of Karaoke, any time you wish!

Please be sure to tell all of your Karaoke friends how to get the new Karaoke Scene Digital for themselves. There are several ways to access Karaoke Scene Digital. You can subscribe so that a link is sent to you via email that connects you to the latest edition (by the way, you also will have access to all previous Digital Editions as well). Apps for your iPhone and iPad and Android devices are now available at the App Store and GooglePlay.com respectively. You can also read Karaoke Scene Digital by visiting our world class KaraokeScene.com. (Special thanks to our webmaster Phill Cross and his company, Cross Web Tech, who designed and maintain our site.)

Karaoke kongratulations!!!

Three time KJ of the Year winner for Orange County, Donna Thomas raised over $19,700, a whopping amount of money, for the Children’s Hospital of Los Angeles during her annual gala fundraiser at the TomKat Lounge in Buena Park. Karaoke Scene salutes Donna Thomas and all of the many folks who unselfishly give so much of their time and money every year to help these children who need it so much.

Finally, at this special time of year, it is good for all of us to reflect on the many blessings we receive but take for granted. Try to do a kindness to someone who may need a little boost. Take a step back and maybe let another person have their way about something. Try sharing the gifts of “love and kindness, warm hearts and an outstretched hand of tolerance” this holiday season. Do this, and it will surely come back to you many times over.

All of us at Karaoke Scene Digital wish you the happiest of holidays and a prosperous, song-filled New Year!
