It's finally finished! It took a couple months and plenty of work, but we have finally created this preview issue of Karaoke Addiction Magazine. We're getting this magazine off the ground and hoping for bigger and better things down the road. I have to say thank you to the many people who have helped create this issue.

Thank you to the writers for writing such great stories, many of whom did so via the Helium.com writing community. If you like to write, you should visit Helium and see what it's all about.

I also say thank you to the many advertisers in this issue. Please support these advertisers so they may support this magazine in the future. Don't forget to tell them KAM sent you. There are many others to thank, including all the readers.

On to another important detail I want to talk about, it is that I encourage, and need, your feedback. I need to know what you like and dislike about the magazine and the web site www.karaokeaddiction.com. I need to know about more listings to place on the contest and venue pages. Whether you're a KJ or just a singer who knows about these karaoke events, I'd be glad to personally receive your e-mail. Send me your feedback and listings to jason@karaokeaddiction.com. Also, don’t hesitate to send photos of you and your friends singing whether you’re at home or out somewhere singing.

In the next issue, I’d like to start doing top 100 lists of songs. If you are interested in being a part of the judging panel, please let me know. I’ll give you a big list from which you can rank songs and may include write-ins.

Finally, I want to say that one of this magazine’s top missions is to help create a more positive public image of our hobby and our passion of karaoke.

I hope you enjoy the preview issue!
