Lately it seems like I’ve been harping on three things: Karaoke you can take the kids to, Karaoke that’s early enough that I can get to work the next day, and Karaoke in the booming Bishop Arts District in North Oak Cliff. Meatloaf sang “Two out of Three Ain’t Bad”, and he’s right — the [...]

In the song “Rocky Mountain High”, John Denver sings about “coming home to a place I’ve never been before”. In a way, that’s what the Texas Star was like. The very first joint where I sang Karaoke was a little dive called One Nostalgia Place, where the drinks were cheap and strong, everyone knew each [...]

Quick update: Texas Star turns out to be just as late as everyplace else, nominally starting at 9pm, and definitely not for kids. But it’s still awesome. Karaoke is definitely a late-night activity, at least the way it’s done around here. It’s seen by bar owners as a way to induce patrons to imbibe larger [...]
July was a vacation month, and despite seeing some possible opportunities, I didn’t make it to a Karaoke bar while I and the family were out of town. Though we did see a sign for “Strip Karaoke” at an establishment of ill repute in Hot Springs, Arkansas. I don’t think that would be anything like [...]

If I’d had time, I would have written up a preview of this new Karaoke gig, but with kids getting out of school and a horse about to foal, there hasn’t been time. But there was no way I could miss this — the new Thursday night gig with Totally Twisted Karaoke at Decanter Restaurant [...]

I got a quick note from Carmen Gulledge, the fiery Karaoke DJ at The Goat, which I’ve raved about several times. She has a once-a-month Karaoke gig at White Rock Grill, 718 N. Buckner Boulevard in Dallas. It’s the second Friday of the month, so the next time around is this week. And it’s early: [...]

Email may be SOOOO 2007, when all the cool kids are on Facebook, but email is still an effective way to stay in contact. Many Karaoke DJ’s include a spot on their song slips for an email address... but then never get around to sending updates. Bad move! If you’re in business (any business), you [...]

I’ve been away from the Karaoke blog, but not from the scene. And it’s been better than ever, now that we’ve got a whole bunch going with us. I’ve always noticed how much fun it is when a whole table full of friends is cheering on their singer — and now that I’m in that [...]

Tonight (March 17, St. Patrick’s Day) is the first night of early Karaoke at Paradise Burger Company in Rockwall, hosted by the best Karaoke DJ’s in town, Totally Twisted Karaoke. I am beyond stoked about this event, and not just because I won’t dread waking up in the morning. For one thing, it’s close to [...]
