Sing at a karaoke bar

For once, I would like to let go off all inhibitions and just sing my heart out without living up to anyone else’s expectations. I think a lot of people hold back on just letting go, for fear of what other’s might think of them. Believe me, I can’t sing worth a penny, but think the adrenaline rush to just be on stage would be worthwhile. Where’s the tequila at?

Well, if you can’t be a rock star… you may as well sing on stage in a mike with music… in front of a crowd that’s too drunk to care how raw your talent is! :D

I hear most people in America pronouncing it kari-oky. Actually, the “kara” is short for the word “karappo” in Japanese, meaning, empty, as in the martial art, Karate (empty hand). The “oke” is short for the Japanese word “okestra” (orchestra). Hence, it is pronounced Kara-OK. But, no matter how you pronounce, or mispronounce it, it’s still a lot of fun.

Downtown, there is a little-known karaoke bar where ten or fifteen adoring strangers call out my name on Friday and/or Saturday nights. I feel like a superstar.

i did it at my friend’s mom’s bar… it would’ve been better if i could’ve sang more songs.

I’ve always been so shy about it! but the whole christmas karaoke got me stoked and i couldn’t help but sing my guts out

go to a different town and get very drunk…it’s that easy

Recently my office had a Karaoke Party at a bar that specialises in that particular kind of torture/embarrasment… actually it wasn’t all that bad except I could not bring myself to get up and do it!!!
I instead became “that” person who gets everybody’s name and makes them choose a song and puts it in the queue to sing.
It was alot of fun but I am a little suprised and dissapointed that I didn’t have the guts for this one.

No one expects that you are going to be a good singer so dont worry about that.
After the first time I did it I wanted to stay and sing a few more songs, but after the second I was asked to leave the stage.

Yep, I did it! I went to a Karaoke bar in japantown tonight with a friend. There were only about 15 people in the place byt the time I had build enough nerve to sing. I sang “Mr. Brightside” by The Killers. It was fun! I think I will try to sing again the next opportunity.
