Meet the Ops!
Not too long ago, a small but bright band of Karaoke lovers were offered the ownership of #Karaoke+mp3s. They jumped at the chance and after recruiting a couple more enthusiastic folks set up #Karaoke+mp3s as it is today.
In the early days member numbers were low due to channel inactivity and the fact that "other" karaoke channels existed. Now, we are one of the biggest karaoke channels on Undernet and we can all hope that one day we will be the biggest of all as we continue to grow.
This is due entirely to the efforts of the Ops and channel members who put their time and efforts into making #Karaoke+mp3s THE resource for your karaoke needs!
You want to meet the Ops???
Ok...in absolutely no particular order, let's go!!
BTW, the old website had lots of fancy colours but I'm keeping this one fairly simple.
Talking of simple..meet Marvo!
Marvo
Lives in Telford in Shropshire in the UK. Is married with two grown kids although now separated from the missus. Is the author of the website, part-time radio presenter for the channel, radio setup maestro.
Loves being in the limelight, singing, magic, harry Potter books (sad git!) and pool and snooker.
Can usually be found trying to find ways of putting more interactivity into the channel...when he has the time these days!
Flashash
Flashash lives in sunny New Zealand. Not that we're jealous or anything! Married with two children he has been a karaoke host for around 17 years now. He enjoys motor sports, karate, kick-boxing and a wide range of music.
Lilj
Since inheriting #Karaoke+mp3s from the previous owner Slashquit, Lilj has been a driving force in making our channel what it is today.
It would be fair to say that her setup knowledge and enthusiasm for the channel is second to none.
A great singing voice and a sense of humour make this lass an attribute to the channel! (I take credit cards lilj!!) Incidently...she also hosts a great pig-pickin!!
Weezylou
Weezylou can be found in the channel almost every spare moment she has. A bright, bubbly personality and a willingness to chat to anyone makes her a real joy to be around.
Once you get to know her and she knows you, you will have a friend indeed! Sister to the aforementioned Lilj she too throws a good party!!
Karaokenut
Karaokenut is also one of the original members of our channel as it is today.
He's been away for quite some time but he's back now!! Larger than life and twice as loud he can be found in channel most days after working at the concrete plant!
^M^aeve
One of the nicest people you will meet on any IRC channel on any network.
As soon as I get a proper bio from Maeve I'll post it!! Actually still waiting for a good bio Maeve!! Hint hint!!!
YesMaam
Chris is a happily married mom of 2 adult daughters. If she isn't in the channel, she is probably chasing down her 2 grandsons. She enjoys singing, fishing, and spending time with her family.
Spacecadet
Spacecadet is 40(ish!), divorced with a young old daughter who forms his whole world.
Before permanently injuring his back he used to play roller-hockey and enjoy running. He has a large collection of music and loves to perform at karaoke shows.
Also likes photography, aviation,and video games...and Old Gregg (google it!!).
Blackbeard
Meet Bill...aka Blackbeard!! This is the guy who writes most of the Op scripts we use in channel, so if you get kicked by one of our bots for no apparent reason...blame him!! He is the brother of Lilj and Weezylou (hmm...family thing going on here in channel methinks!!).
Laura is a mother of 3, 2 girls and 1 boy. She's been working at a marina for 25 years. She got into karaoke when she met her boyfriend, J, and luckily found Mirc and all the great people there. She enjoys spending time with her family, boating, riding atv's, singing karaoke and shopping online.!!
