For the first time [en masse singalongs notwithstanding]. 'Be My Baby' and 'Jolene' and later a miscalculated drunken 'Money Money Money'. It was fun!

So how is/was your weekend? Juicy gossip please.

i found beer flavoured beer that has 70% fewer calories and so drank 70% more than i would normally. i finished dance, dance, dance and read a week's worth of daily yomouri. but the weekend's not over yet and there are an awful lotta karaoke joints in this shi...

i'm 'married'; no juicy gossip. so, di to thread -

Good for karaoke: Neil Diamond. Crowd pleasin', and requires very little range.

OMG I almost sang "Jolene" at karaoke tonight! I've actually never done karaoke and have a suspicion I'm a very bad singer, but the tiny country bar I was at tonight was very welcoming of bad singers. mr teeny dragged me away before I could get enough liquid courage in me.

I've spent most of the weekend with several of my oldest and best friends, only one ILXer among them, and had a fantastic time except feeling a bit unwell around 3am today. I've only had three hours sleep, and I finally have the appointment supposedly to confirm my eye surgery tomorrow at 9.30. Early to bed tonight.

I met up with Lolita Corpus and a slew of friends yesterday at a free show just up the road. There was merriment and free food, yay!

I've totally being petering out re: karaoke these days. Too many mediocre songs in a row. Plus the selection at the place I usually go is wearing thin (I don't like to do songs more than once). There's a much better selection at another place in town, but it's a pizza joint that closes at midnight. After singing "Lady In Red" with a children's birthday party in front of me, I'm not going there again.

I love the karaoke, but I'm repeating myself now, and it's a bit wanky to actually learn new songs (NB I have done this a couple of times, sad me). Any suggestions?

Oh fuck this thread resurrected a previously blacked-out memory of drunken karaoking Prince's "Kiss" that I had hoped would remain blacked-out for all eternity, ugh.

did you do a dance at the appropriate time?

― Andrew Farrell (afarrell), Monday, 6 October 2003 15:00 (twenty-two years ago)

We didn't do karaoke but we ended up in a weird German beer hall full of 60 year old men and people doing a maypole thing and creating a Star of David out of pine branches or something. Also Medieval Times where they give you no silverwear to eat your food. Then I went to New Rochelle by accident.
