A VERY PICARAZZI CHRISTMAS!

Later that evening, I headed out to Brooklyn to attend my favorite holiday party at Frank & Liz's...

...enjoying this handsome man's rendering of a tender, tender soft-metal ballad. (Something by Whitesnake, perhaps?)

Inspired by the madness of the Priestbird show, a bunch of us decided to make some music of our own (er, sort of) at karaoke later that night. Here's the Fatty kicking some SUPER OLD SKOOL Jovi with "Runaway."

Amanda and Fatty. Hahah.

Hahaha. Fatty giving either Seth or Amanda (or both!) the ol' "get a load of this guy" face.

Fatty reacting to the spectacle.

His over-the-top rokk antics even managed to bring a closeted 80s hair-metal groupie up out of her seat.

Oh, you thought I was just being funny when I capitalized ROKK on the last page? Ninja, please! Check out Fatty bringing the pain (whilst fisting a king can of Sappora, no less).

Fatty getting ready to ROKK the mic! Don't think this night is over! Oh, no! We're just getting started. Hunker on down in you seat there and get comfy and when you're ready, check out the rest of the night.

Fatty was up first with Huey Lewis' "I Want a New Drug."

...and refugee groupies from the 80s! Awwww, yeah! (This lady was awesome - she was totally all over Fatty. Fatty was laughing, but at the same time he was all nervous because she was there with a bunch of scary looking dudes. Check out how Fatty's all got his arms up in the air like "I'm not touching her, see? She is the one touching me!")
karaoke + fatty
Complete with air guitar and leg kicks.

I'm guessing this had to be a Van Halen song? (Check out Fatty pretending to play his guitar around Grant like he's in a Poison video. Hahaha.).

"Thank you and goodnight, New York City. We'll be back in just a few weeks."

So we ended up having so much singing at Frank's that we decided to round up a crew and head to Nolita Tavern for some Saturday night Sid & Buddy Karaoke action. Emily Cmielewski was in town from Boston apartment hunting for a place in NYC so she came with Bev (who I also went to high school with) and met us there. (L to R: Bev, MLE, Grant, Fatty and Colin).

...and the original Jetsetera line up took the stage for the first time in over three years for a four-way karaoke re-enactment of the seminal Van Halen song, "Hot For Teacher." (In order to really appreciate that last caption, you have to hear me say it in my Casey Kasem voice.)
