I went to Tiki to sing on karaoke night. At its beginning, the dj announced, "Don't be surprised if I put people who have just arrived before you in line. It's fair! And if you want to complain, know that I'm the boss." Her judgment on fairness is warped, and you she was so sure of herself. Infallible ignorance. Newsflash for Pittsburgh: Not going to the end of a queue, or line, is UNFAIR. Even if I have already sung, and I am waiting in line to sing again, putting someone newly arrived ahead of me in the queue is UNFAIR and thus unethical. Ethically compromised djs should use a sign up sheet. When a singer has finished one's song, sign up to sing again. A person arriving after that would sign at the end of the list at that time. Even if a singer has already sung a song, that singer has to wait line to sing again; inserting someone who was not there and thus did not have to wait is not fair to ANY of the singers waiting in line, whether or not any had already sung. The dj at Tikis declared to justify allowing new arrivals to skip to the front line, "Everybody gets to sing!" Well, that's a fallacious excuse, because everyone gets to sing anyway, even if everyone signs up either when they arrive or at the end of one's last song. Holding off an entire line of singers so new arrivals can sing right away ignores the fact that after an existing singer has sung, one waits to sing again. Whether or not a given person in line has sung already is irrelevant because the person will have been waiting in line before the arrival of the new singer, who did not have to wait during that time. Finally, bar owners, who let new arrivals skip to the front of line so those customers will buy drinks under the misled impression that not much time would be spent waiting to sing again, are unethical business practitioners, who likely studied business at the local university, the university of Pittsburgh.

Celebrating a 30th birthday with family and friends. Fantastic decor inside and prices are very reasonable. Large dance area in back and even has a downstairs level. Has a kitsch theme to it like an old 50s lounge and was a great way to spend a few hours in the evening. Bartenders are attentive and friendly and had no waiting time. Would recommend a stop by even if for just one drink to experience something different.
