Karaoke --- Good or Bad

DaBouncer · 29-09-2003, 13:53

Inspired by Cosywolf wanting to do a spot of Rock Karaoke at the next forum meet

I thought I'd open the gauntlet to y'all!

Do you like Karaoke?

Would you go for a karaoke evening at yer local pub?

Do you think karaoke should be banned and leave it up to the professionals to sing?

Do you own a Karaoke machine?

Have you ever sung on karaoke?

Karaoke is for lame people who can't sing. I have done it several times myself but only when in extreme states of inebriation. Call me sad but I prefer I quiz night!!

DaBouncer · 29-09-2003, 14:17

I must say, I'm a HUGE fan of Karaoke.

I have sang on Karaoke many times, but I don't own one of the machines. It just wouldn't get used.

I used to sing on Karaoke when working in the states, and that was soooooooooooooo much fun.

Rock on!

I have never done karaoke. I can't sing and would not inflict my voice on anyone.

I too prefer quiz nights, I'm a sad quiz addict.

You always get some sad, ****** idiot who can't sing, stripping down to the waist trying to sing "I'm too sext for my shirt"... oh dear, that'll be me!

I must admit, when in the states I did a rendition of YMCA with some of the other counsellors.

Which went down a treat!

When on mi hols in Greece I sang Daydream Believer!

Karaoke is pretty tacky, maybe the fact that it's confined to, a) rough council estate pubs, b) ageing working men's clubs that gives me that opinion of it

Also, wasn't it a product of the late 80s, early 90s and should be laid to rest?

DaBouncer · 29-09-2003, 14:34

I dont live on a 'Council Estate' and my local Boozer has it!
And the boozer aint a workin mens club!

Don't make me walk round to your desk Dick and flatten you with that comment

Zamo · 29-09-2003, 14:35

You can't ban it as it'll just drive it underground. Second thoughts, ban it.

DaBouncer · 29-09-2003, 14:36

Underground Karaoke !!!

Just might revive it's appeal!

There's no need to be unhappy..."

steelblade · 29-09-2003, 14:54

I always find it hilarious when a newly single woman gets up to "sing" I will survive, I feel like shouting if you carry on singing like that you blo0dy wont!

Zamo · 29-09-2003, 14:55

"young man, there's a place you can go.
I said, young man, when you're short on your dough.
you can stay there, and I'm sure you will find
many ways to have a good time...

(all together now...)

It's fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A.
