Fast Eddie's Sports & Billiards

This is a review for the karaoke night and food and drink service. we were happy to find a place nearby that had karaoke nights and were eager to try it out. the 1st tiem we went it was a week night and the place was a bit deserted at 9pm. karaoke dj was late and didnt get set up till almost 10. that was already a bummer bec it being a work day after. song selection was decent and varied. but the dj had this annoying habit of playing a full song (usually rap or hiphop) in between singers. totally unneccesary and further waste of time. and to top it off, he pitched in and did a few songs too. we figured there were only 2 other people wanting to sing so i guess he wanted to fill the playlist out a bit.
but the experience was lackluster enough that we didnt plan on going back anytime soon. months later, a friend asked to meet us there for karaoke on a sat night and the place was packed. there were at least 5 other large parties of 4+ people all signign up and wanting to sing. the pool and darts area were also pretty full so the place was fun and jumping.
alas, the dj was doing his own thing again, playing full songs between singers and AGAIN singing his own rap song when there were MANY OTHER people who were waiting to get on stage. and then to add to the bizaare set up, a WAITRESS gets up and sings a song too. sorry, but isnt she techinically working?? this was supposed to be a night for the patrons and guests of the bar, not talent night for the staff. we were there from 9:30om (dj started late again) and the 2 people from our table only got to sing ONCE and we hung around till midnight.
my husband used to be a karaoke dj and we were just baffled as to why the management tolerates this kind of set up w the dj. it was more like the dj doing his ownt hing than letting people do what they came to do, and thtas just to get up on stage themselves.
despite this and the busy evening, the food was quite good (we had nachos, chili mozzarella sticks) and came quickly despite the busyness of the evening. the manager came around checking to see if all food and drinks had arrived as well.
get a replacement for that awful dj and we'll gladly come back.

I've recently become a regular here now that they have become non-smoking. Not enough pool halls in the area with good tables that don't make you wreak of smoke after an hour of shooting.

Great food/drink/pool specials (pizzas are solid and 50% off on Sundays), friendly staff, ladies play for free Mondays, and currently holding 9-ball tournaments on Mondays with decent players.

Never been to Fast Eddies in Virginia. Not impressed at all.  It reminded me of the pool all out of a biker movie. Wasn't sure if it was the drinks or pool, but it was very expensive. Over $200 for two of us.  Pool sticks were all crooked and warped and couldn't breath from the amount of smoke.  Will not be going back.
