missing or damaged equipment. We also reserve the right to use this card to pay your bill if you
forget to pay before you leave.

track of your own time. Lincoln Karaoke will ask you to leave only if there is another party
reserved after yours. Because rooms can have multiple reservations, please be on time. You
will be responsible for your reserved time. We reserve the right to charge you from the reserved
start time.

it’s best to let us know you’d like to extend as early as possible. There is no guarantee!
