crackymckrackin Posted January 28, 2020 Posted January 28, 2020 All I have is a wish list. We don't have a karaoke place anywhere near hear. I would literally have to drive 4 to six hours just to start searching for a place. I live in a college town too. That's what makes it so crazy. This town only has dive bars. Not even good bars that serve good food. 1

They literally just roll in with an I pad and press play.

If I have a pre-recorded mix, it's mostly for show and auditions. Edited January 28, 2020 by lupin_bebop

GuyBeardmane Posted January 29, 2020 Posted January 29, 2020 I killed it one night with "All Star" by Smash Mouth because 90% of the people in the place were drunk 20-somethings. I'd love to do "Sex Bomb" by Tom Jones sometime.
SwimModSponges Posted January 29, 2020 Posted January 29, 2020 I like to sing along to the radio at work; most notably "I hope you find it." I do a really good Cher. And my Louis Armstrong "What a wonderful world" is right up there.
Gyaos Posted January 29, 2020 Posted January 29, 2020 I know I can't dance worth a fuck, so I'm scared to know how I'd sing at my current age. 1
Doom Metal Alchemist Posted January 29, 2020 Posted January 29, 2020 I don't do karaoke because I can't carry a tune with a bucket. And if I did, like everything I'd want to do they wouldn't have. In an alternate universe I'd love to karaoke Mercyful Fate's Into the Coven or Judas Priest's Dreamer Deceiver. The singer in my band often does karaoke, but I never get to see him do it, because he does it on nights I work, and nights I don't work we're doing band practice. In our last band, he'd sometimes karaoke with our former bandmate's equipment, and we had a VERY happy accident. Despite the fact we worships Ronnie James Dio, until last year he had never attempted to sing any Dio song before (any band Dio was in). One night at practice he was karaoking Heaven and Hell's Atom and Evil. He was singing very low pitched, which at that point I had never heard him do, and I was entranced. He said he never sang like that before, he only did it because Dio has a higher register than him, and the only way for him to sing in the correct key was to go an octave lower. I was like, "dude, you got to do that in our music." In that particular band I don't think that ever happened because he only sang on songs our singer before him wrote. Now in our current band, he does some vocals like that in the song we are currently working on. 1

Raptorpat Posted January 29, 2020 Posted January 29, 2020 I think @Skiles is big into karaoke, someone should summon him over from fb.

jackiemarie90 Posted January 30, 2020 Posted January 30, 2020 I don't know if I have go to songs. The only songs I actually plan are the ones I sing at Anime Conventions. XD But always down to be spontaneous when it comes up. XD 2
Chapinator_X Posted January 30, 2020 Posted January 30, 2020 There are little to no karaoke places by me, but David Bowie & Stevie Wonder are my usual go-tos. “Let’s Dance” is my main option cause it’s fun to do a Bowie impersonation. 1
