El Rio is close for two weeks every year around Christmas and New Years, so there will be no karaoke at El Rio of Dec. 21, 2011 or on Dec 28, 2011. All my other nights are as the usually are, so will be at Rocketfish on the 22nd and the 29th.
Costume Karaoke at El Rio!
Tuesday, November 29, 2011, 8pm-close — Costume Karaoke at El Rio
This will be the first of (hopefully) many Costume Karaoke nights at El Rio! I will bring out my costume rack and people are welcome to come in costume and/or put on one of mine.
I used to do these nights at the Deco Lounge and they were ridiculously fun. I bring a large rack of clothes, wigs, sunglasses etc for everyone to ware during the evening. This was one of my favorite nights at the Deco Lounge; let’s see how it does at El Rio!
Here is the Facebook event! Invite your friends!

Full bar. Amazing food. Karaoke for kids and adults. Something for everybody!
Besides the AMAZING FOOD at the Rocketfish Lounge, the fact that there is karaoke for kids and adults is one of my favorite things. Everybody loves kids karaoke, especially when the kids can really sing and Kate Cooley ROCKED it at the Rocketfish Lounge on Thursday. She was a little shy at first, but after her first song the crowd whet wild and she was hooked! You have to listen to her first song! It is AWESOME!
Here are all for the songs Kate Cooley sang: KJPaul.com/singer/kate+cooley
Here are all the songs sung on Thursday, November 17, 2011 at the Rocketfish Lounge.
Karaoke Word Challenge (KWC) Game Rules
I posted the KWC game rules. They are subject to change, so put any suggestions in the comments.
You can find the Karaoke Word Challenge game rules at:

There is also a link to this page in the site menu under “About”.
Lookout sounding better and better
It always takes a little while to settle into a new venue and the Lookout was no exception. The Lookout has an amazing sound system and tv screens everywhere. It took 3 video adapters to find one that worked with the setup there, but now there is karaoke on all to the screens. I have also been tweaking the sound setup a little every week. Now I have two stage monitors and am able to take full advantage of the house setup. Come and check it out again, I think you will like what you see/hear.
Another thing that is great about the Lookout is how much the audience pays attention to the karaoke. The crowd is there for the singers and the clap and dance and have a great time. It is a solid karaoke night.
Every Monday at the Lookout 8pm to 2am (excluding holidays).

Karaoke Word Challenge at CaffCom
Caffeinated Comics Karaoke Word Challenge
It was a great evening of karaoke and the Karaoke Word Challenge (KWC) game was a success! I love the night and will do it again once or twice before the end of the year.
KWC “Toe” round
The first word was “Toe”. Nick was the winner of the first round with the line “dancing toe to toe” in the Roxy Music song “Love is the Drug”.
KWC “Skin” round
The word for Round 2 was “Skin”. Ash was the winner of round 2 with the line “my skin is bare, my skin is theirs” in the Filter song “Take A Picture”.
The “Skin” round was a bit long with 23 songs which left people out of the game a little too long and as a result I have decided to change how the game is played a little. Next time I run the game I will group the songs and let people choose songs to sing from the list rather than having everyone try to figure out possible songs on their own. Then, when it is their turn they can either sing one of the songs on the list or bow out of the round.
The recordings on the event are top notch. You can see:
The entire night
The “Toe” round (Round 1 winner)
The “Skin” round (Round 2 winner)
