now we need to pick a venue. we think we'd like to just show up at a regular karaoke night at a pub, rather than hiring out our own room or whatever (we're all poor)
what's your favorite place to karaoke? is there room for 10-20 people to show up and sing?

It's fallen from favour among some posters because it's not a great pub. But for something like this it sounds a good idea because -
- it stays open until 1am- there's room for a big bunch of people to come in and most of them will get a song- there's a lot of language school students and Americans in the crowd anyway- it's very friendly and the selection is good (based on my last visit rather than on collective ILX visits)
Karaoke is on Thursdays and Fridays.

In December every Saturday night, including New Years Eve will be party night with Karaoke & fancy dress from 7pm.

OMG I DIDN'T KNOW ONE TUN HAS KARAOKE! WE MUST GO?!
― ken c, Friday, 7 September 2007 12:44 (eighteen years ago)
one tun on goodge st? i'd go.
i assume "the bar on tcr" [rolls eyes] no longer does karaoke in its new guise?
― CarsmileSteve, Friday, 7 September 2007 13:09 (eighteen years ago)
dunno! i was there on a thursday, there was no karaoke but it was really early so i can't tell... it seems really PLEASANT inside now that it's bar on tcr!!!
i'm going to check it out to see when the karaoke is on.
― ken c, Friday, 7 September 2007 13:17 (eighteen years ago)
the old surgeon (call it by its name), pleasant? that seems wrong somehow...
yeah man, check it out :)
― CarsmileSteve, Friday, 7 September 2007 13:21 (eighteen years ago)
There's one in the pub across the road from me right now.
Someone's doing a dreadful version of 'Everything I Do (I Do it for you)'
― Jill, Thursday, 13 September 2007 20:54 (eighteen years ago)
Ooh karaoke. Marvellous.
― Mark C, Thursday, 13 September 2007 22:59 (eighteen years ago)
I like karaoke. Can I come too?
― Daniel Giraffe, Friday, 14 September 2007 07:18 (eighteen years ago)
yes.
― CarsmileSteve, Friday, 14 September 2007 09:05 (eighteen years ago)
What are the odds that Daniel can actually really sing though. I reckon high.
― Mark C, Friday, 14 September 2007 09:47 (eighteen years ago)
Yes, its been a long time and the gang needs to get its voice back.
― Pete, Friday, 14 September 2007 10:07 (eighteen years ago)
I could sing before my voice broke, but that was in 1980/81. I do hope they have some Prince Far-I at this karaoke.
― Daniel Giraffe, Friday, 14 September 2007 10:41 (eighteen years ago)
hi, the one tun had it on the 15th sept, but i withheld the information because i wasn't going to be there and i'd be jealous. i think the next one is llike october early or something! let's go!
― ken c, Sunday, 16 September 2007 15:15 (eighteen years ago)
ha! i just got a txt message upon my return, i see that this has been done, this 15th sept karaoke.. well jealous! report back please.
― ken c, Wednesday, 19 September 2007 09:17 (eighteen years ago)
It was really great!! We must definitely attend the next one and this time I will have the MCR tracks DOWN PAT :) I think I will do 'Teenagers'!
― Sarah, Wednesday, 19 September 2007 09:20 (eighteen years ago)
Oh yeah were you still in LA?!
― Sarah, Wednesday, 19 September 2007 09:21 (eighteen years ago)
Ken we are so ahead of you, we were all there on on the 15th, post-Trig Brother. I made a right pig's arse out of Boom Shake The Room.
― Matt DC, Wednesday, 19 September 2007 09:21 (eighteen years ago)
We shall never speak of the Welcome To The Black Parade again.
Can't make the next one, at a pahrty. But we had the run of the gaff and it was excellent fun.
― Pete, Wednesday, 19 September 2007 09:25 (eighteen years ago)
when IS the next one then?
this sounds great. do they have loads of songs and tings?
― ken c, Wednesday, 19 September 2007 11:11 (eighteen years ago)
must be karaoke time soon
― ken c, Tuesday, 2 October 2007 13:50 (eighteen years ago)
doing this on friday at bloomsbury bowl.
pls tell me what to sing from this quite extensive list
― N1ck (Upt0eleven), Wednesday, 29 April 2009 12:24 (sixteen years ago)
17326: Africa by Toto
― nate woolls, Wednesday, 29 April 2009 12:27 (sixteen years ago)
with a hideous quantity of drunken enthusiasm I went with Personal Jesus. If Nick Cave were to perform a version of that song it would sound not entirely dissimilar to mine, but a bit better (prob).
