Karaoke at an Irish pub

Jun 10, 2004 21:42

After the Comedy Sportz workshop tonight I went out to Karaoke with a couple of friends at a little hole-in-the-wall Irish pub, I sang my very first solo karaoke song ("like a virgin" how appropo) I also did an old stand by duo with Joseph, "I'm on fire" but my mike was turned off, so really I just stood there.
I'm a regular at Karaoke night at our local "gay friendly" bar, but this was a different kind of experience. The drunk factor, and the hick factor were both a little higher but the only people I knew there were good enough friends that I knew they would tell me I was great even if I wasn't. (your really good friends will always lie to you about this sort of thing) All and all I'm glad I went, it was good for me to get up there all by myself, safety-netless, someday I'll get around to conquering my fear of the lime light, and this may well have been a good first step. The really exciting news is that some drunk guy who didn't know me told me I sounded just like Madonna, either he was lying, hoping that complementing me would be a good first step to get me in the sack, or he was drunk enough that peewee herman would've sounded like Madonna, but irregardless, it was nice to get the compliment.
