More Karaoke Apr 23, 2007
Well, after fending off a few offers for a recording contract, I feel sufficiently ego fuelled that we should start thinking about the next session.

The Chinese Restaurant is good, cheapish, and private... but welcome to other suggestions re venue.

Note, a few of us Karaoke regulars are going to India at the end of May for a week or so and would love to do it before then.

We are of course, going to India for discussions with Bollywood producers.

Raina karaokes in day are no fun , and usually everyones free in the evenings , lets see what people come up with this time. , not a lot of new people look interested though. i guess everyones afraid to put a face to their identity :)

Guys, if you're going for the Bur Dubai area, I would suggest a Friday as traffic will be minimal. Or if on a weekday, make it later say 9-9.30 to give people ample time to get there. I really wanted to come to the last one, but it was just impossible in the end.

Yeah a lot of people came from the Marina end... it's no hassle if you plan around the traffic.

Having said that I would be in flavour of a friday night as well. Gives me all day saturday to warm up my vocal chords.

A Mr. Sanjetty Papadomallikra rang me today and is interested in signing me up to a couple of Bollywood movies.... wow :shock: word spreads!

Having perused the Time Out this week I have come to the conclusion that the karaoke place in the Hyatt Regency may be a good idea. Any thoughts, has anyone been there? I'll read it over once more and give a few other options later.

Never realised karaoke places can be quite comfy to snooze. I was drowsy after a sip of whisky despite all noise around me (well I mean everyone sang so well it puts me to sleep)...

I better shut up now, or else I wont be welcomed to the next event.

Disclaimer: I really cant sing. But I am good at ordering chinese food apparently :)

Thats a direct attack on our singing abilities, but wont complain as u did a super job with the chow. But if we go to a new place next time u have to sing a song as u might not be ordering the food :lol: coz it might not be a chinese place

i loved the food.... :oops:

Oh..dont worry, when it comes to food, i am suddenly multi-lingual. I am sure there will be plenty for me to do apart from singing.

Seriously speaking, I enjoy watching you lot having fun.
