It feels almost shameful to have enjoyed so much Karaoke without telling anyone about it! And it’s been on the most unlikely of days: Wednesday and Sunday nights. Rather than wait forever to write full stories, here are some quick notes from the past few months. Agave, Rockwall Harbor After having a great time at [...]
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.

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 [...]
