Greetings Fellow Karaoke Junkies!
Tomorrow night, Friday, 9/28, There will be a Special Karaoke Event out at Fin's Pub In Oakdale. When you get up to sing, monies will be donated by the KJ,Patty, and be matched by the owners of the bar, to be donated to the victims of 9/11. Please get on out there and sing, sing, sing!
Fin's Pub is formerly Duval Street Pub and will now have karaoke EVERY friday, but this special event is just happening on the 28th of this month.
For the address and further information, Please go to my website listed below (Long Island Karoke) Thank You!
I have noticed a practice going on in other states and I think Long Island Bars should try it out. If you have a neighborhood bar that doesn't have karaoke, why not mention this to them. The way it works is that Karaoke starts earlier, say at 6 PM and goes on till 10 PM and then they have a live band come in for the rest of the night. This works out great for the singers as well as the bar owners.
1.) Your night can start and end early. This is great for weeknight singing when you have to be up early for work the next day! Who wants to be standing in a bar at 1:45 AM, waiting for your turn in the rotation on a Wednesday night?
2.) For the bar owners that are afraid they won't get a crowd for karaoke, (sheesh, are you kidding me??) they get to cover their collective butts by also offering live music at the time when the bands would be starting up anyway! Hey Karaoke folk are a fun crowd, who's to say we won't stick around while the band plays as well?
OK, I've put my 2 cents out there, how about talking to your local Barkeep and see what they think? This could be great!
