What's the mic situation like? Will they be mics on stands or just a mic we hold? My partner and I need to know as far ahead of time as possible so we can plan our choreography accordingly.

We have requested three mics on stands.

Could we possibly sing Vocaloid Songs for the Karaoke Contest?
It would be really cool if we get to use it.

Yes, as long as they are well-known songs and not just something you made yourself using the Vocaloid software.

Mrs. Pumpkin's Comical Dream
Dear
When Love Ends for the First Time
Meltdown
Romeo and Cinderella

Are those eligible?

Quick question: Would I be able to play the song on a keyboard of my own as I sing it?

Not in this contest- but you can do it in the Acoustikaraoke contest, which is on Sunday afternoon. See the Acoustikaraoke Rules topic for more info.

Most of the time they are wired, but we have been known to receive wireless mics every so often. For now, you should assume wired.

We'll look over that list of Vocaloid songs in the next day or two.

I'm trying to go for Mrs. Pumpkin no Kokkei na Yume.

If we do sing it, can we put in our own things as long as it doesn't mess up the original lyrics? Like add in some narration?

For the main contest, you can only have an instrument on stage as a prop. But it cannot be your source of music.

Those who want to play an instrument during their performance should sign up for the Acoustikaraoke contest.

So...

Are we allowed to add our own material in the song as long as it doesn't screw up the original lyrics?

Because, I can't help but do some narration!

mlarad · « **Reply #31 on:** April 30, 2010, 04:55:41 PM »

I guess, but can't guarantee the judges will like it!

Ok. If I wanted to enter, could I use a song by an artist like "Gackt", in which the song doesn't tie into an anime or video game, but still falls into the category of j-pop/j-rock?

God91125 · « **Reply #34 on:** May 01, 2010, 10:49:09 PM »

Question about some songs!

"Way to Fall" from metal Gear Solid 3 by Star Sailor and

"The Messenger" from Final Fantasy Dissidia I'm having trouble telling if those are appropriate for the contest or not. I mean "Way to Fall" I can understand but the other song was specially made for Dissidia. Anyways just trying to clear this up before I decide on my song selection for Fanime >_<

"Way to Fall" would not be okay as it was not created originally for the game.

Mrs. Pumpkin's Comical Dream is okay as a song.

We frown on songs by Gackt.

Alright thank you for the Clarification.

One question:

Are English covers for animes, such as the ones dubbed by Funimation, allowed at all?

Looks like it's from Final Fantasy IX, should be fine.
