Perfectly content to just call it a day after such a worthwhile and early outing, later on tonight I was dragged out and convinced to drive all the way into Seattle for karaoke.
So I arrive to this new karaoke place (right across from Salsa place actually), and there were no rooms available (and probably not for the rest of the night). Young genius and lady friend were there, wandering about trying to decide what to do next... then I hear some crazy talk about 'oh, let's go to a friend's place and play rock band'... .. Mson's wtf radar goes off and he springs into action...
Surveying the area, there was a bar, a waiting area that had some open area, and a table with sofa around it (waiting area) and a few mics just out and a small TV. There was a group already singing at the bar (they were waiting for a room). Spurred by the 'rock band quote'... a light bulb goes off in my head goes - this is really just the lounge area at any K place...
Then a sequence of event happens....
1) Get drinks - there is no way I come all this way into S.town, and just drive back.
2) Pick a song... and persuade aka. coerce little genius and lady friend to pick a song(s) too :). There's nothing like peer pressure...
3) Take over the 'waiting area' seats and table - yes, there were a few people on their last drinks there... but they left and voila, my table opened...
4) Get more drinks, chat, sing, play...
Transformation complete!
All we were missing was dice...
Then salsa beast and company arrived, at first reluctant to sing in the lounge with people, but seeing how much fun we were all having, joins in and fun times it was.
So all in all, we ended up taking over the lounge as 'our room', sang the songs we wanted, had a table and seats. Rock band?.. HA! Neverrrrrr...
