...Piano's to welcome in the New Year with some late night Karaoke Killed the Cat!
karaoke
Killing it.
karaoke
Feathery eyelashes.
karaoke
Duet.
karaoke
Haha. Every time I've seen her sing she blows the doors off the place.
karaoke
That's the nice that about showing up to karaoke at almost 5am - not much of a wait to sing!
karaoke
RAGE! This gets the award for most cathartic birthday moment.
karaoke
Crazy-Face Me and Big-Mouth Leigh
karaoke
Leigh, Lawrence and Andrew.
karaoke
Gurj and Mer!
karaoke
This photo makes me LOL every time I look at it. Sarah looks like she's preaching and that girl in the background is doing her best to politely wait out the offer of a shared microphone. Hahah.
karaoke
Gina and Mandy with the birthday boy!
karaoke
SmellsGood Gina, Lawrence and Mandy.
karaoke
Haha. I think that's Kevin with Lord Easy.
karaoke
Because hey, karaoke! Here's Gurj and an awesomely red-faced Lawrence. Happy Birthday! This was the second karaoke birthday party that Karaoke Killed the Cat hosted. The first one I'd been to was in 2006 and it was epic.
karaoke
Culminating with me convincing the band to let me sing a couple of songs.
karaoke
Place was totally empty and we got to sing some jams right away. That's the best. Here's Kate killing Shoop by Salt-N-Pepa.
karaoke
This guy was awesome and he looked like a suburban-version of Sexy Joe! Happy July 2008!
karaoke
Hahaha.
karaoke
Then I'm pro-shack.
karaoke
...unless you've got two people who are going to give it 100% non-stop energy for the entire song.
karaoke
Scott and Amanda signed up to do The B-52's Loveshack as a duet!
karaoke
Usually I'm totally anti this song (because it's like 10 minutes long)...
karaoke
Ellen singing Boys of Summer (which is a killer karaoke jam).
karaoke
Slow dancing! (Maybe something by Whitney?)
karaoke
By the end of her song she had everyone near the stage dancing.
karaoke
I don't remember what song Lisa sang, but I do remember that it got the crowd MOVING!
karaoke
Hooray for yelling!
karaoke
...for some karaoke at 2nd on 2nd.
karaoke
The Farewell Party.
karaoke
And for the very last song of the night, Tim & Sarah closed it out with a duet of Summer Lovin'.
karaoke
I don't know this gentleman, but his karaoke game (he's singing a jam from Phantom of the Opera) and his karaoke-face were both so strong, I had no choice but to take photos.
karaoke
Hahaha.
karaoke
"Oh." Yep, she's drunk! ;-)
karaoke
Sarah and Sarah and another girl! Is another girl drunk? She looks drunk! That's it! I'm tagging this photo with "drunk!"
karaoke
It you're wondering if it was as awesome as you're imagining it was...it was.
karaoke
A little after 1am Tim showed up and did Gen X's Dancing With Myself.
karaoke
Looks like it was a dancey number, though.
karaoke
Sarah and Sarah sung a duet. I don't remember what it was and my flash is whiting out the lyrics on the screen.
karaoke
Sarah Flagpole-Sitting, of course.
karaoke
Nick Snow (looking like a Dr. Seuss drawing in this pic)!
karaoke
Gurj and Cara.
karaoke
Hahaha. What's more adorable than this little midget singing UB40's Red Red Wine...
karaoke
...in her little stripey dress and super-short bangs that look like she let a little kid cut her hair.
karaoke
I immediately hopped on my bike and arrived in the midst of a Fran & Gurj duet. (Love this photo!)
karaoke
On Monday night around 11pm, I got a text from Gurj that her good friend Fran was in town from the UK and they were at 2nd on 2nd singing karaoke and that my presence was requested.
karaoke
Jenny and Sarah!
karaoke
Hahaha.
karaoke
After we'd finished bowling, we hit Pianos for some Karaoke Killed the Cat karaoke action!
karaoke
Totally shocked by gayness!
karaoke
A little after 1am, Sarah came out to announce the winner (I don't even remember who it was!), thanked everyone for coming, and handing out some schweet schwag bags!
karaoke
The next girl was wearing a teeny, tiny denim mini-skirt and what she lacked in vocal talent, she more than made up for with her expert "show the judges my crotch for an entire three minutes" skills. Hey, there's more than one way to win a karaoke competition! Nicely done!
karaoke
Later on this girl went. She was only memorable for how completely off-key she managed to be for the entire song. Check out the DJ's face to her right. Hahah.
karaoke
We was flipping his hair around, show-boating on the high notes...
karaoke
...he moved right on to trying to make a personal connection with the judges. Mr. Rubano in particular.
karaoke
Next up was our friend Mr. Casey Squyres, who was visiting from out of town. After spending a little bit of time establishing cred with the crowd...
karaoke
Feelin' the Jov'.
karaoke
A couple of contestants later and there was another familiar face...
karaoke
...that's right! Dennis Crowley was there kicking his signature jam: Jovi's Wanted Dead of Alive.
karaoke
Mr. Matt Rubano was also there as a judge! Kevin blew him away - here he is getting ready to hand out a 9!
karaoke
Hahaha.
karaoke
The fact that Sarah was a judge didn't stop her from getting up on the stage and getting down!
karaoke
Here he is doing his signature jam: Prince's Pussy Control.
karaoke
One of the first competitors was the ONE AND ONLY Kevin Myers.
karaoke
He was right in the middle of a tender rendering of Stone Temple Pilot's Interstate Love Song...
karaoke
Then we came full circle back to Mark!
karaoke
Dance it out.
karaoke
Next on deck...
karaoke
Hahaha. Check out Brian D, down on his knees cheering Viv on while ALSO doing a shot. Man, I love co-worker karaoke!
karaoke
Then Vivian sang.
karaoke
Maya (showing off her former-gymnast skills) and Mark!
karaoke
Next, Rich totally killed Hold On by Wilson Phillips. Hahaha. I love how Maya's reaching out to "hold on" to Rich in this photo.
karaoke
Feeling it.
karaoke
Who decided to kick a slow-jam with The Tide is High. Check out Mary in the background going BIG on the backing vocals. Nice!
karaoke
...Brian D.
karaoke
Hahaha. This photo makes me so happy. I like how everyone's clapping during his epic last note.
karaoke
Knee up on the table! Off to a METAL start!
karaoke
...he wanted to make sure he was nice and loose for the inaugural karaoke kick off song!
karaoke
...fire up the karaoke! Gio and Lani's duet.
karaoke
Pics from Wendy's cam!
karaoke
I love this pic. Look how gnarly my face is. Hahaha.
karaoke
Giving Whitney some feeling.
karaoke
On Thursday night, I met up wtih Lisa (who looks like she was channeling Stevie Nicks during her "Indigenous Peoples of New Mexico" phase) and we kicked some late night karaoke jams at Winnie's.
karaoke
Sometimes two of them! Epic.
karaoke
And every time without fail, his jam brings ladies to the stage.
karaoke
I'm totally drawing a blank on this guy's name (Patrick? Daniel? Shit, I'm terrible), but he's super funny and he usually picks booty-shaking hip hop songs that are En Espanol.
karaoke
...karaoke!
