grateful for live band karaoke
Answering your frequently asked questions.
What is live band karaoke?
Live band karaoke is the best kind of karaoke there is. Rather than singing along to a recording, you are accompanied by a live band with actual, breathing, instrument-wielding humans.
How does it work?
You just stalk them to whichever venue they are playing that night, scribble down the song you have been obsessively practicing, put your request in the golden chalice (with some coin!) and then you wait. But not very long because the rotations are actually pretty quick! Extra points if you can get them to laugh with the silly name that you have chosen for the night.
Are they cool?
Does the pope shit in my mouth? Yes, of course they are cool! I wouldn't be writing this blog post if they weren't cool. Don't ask such obvious questions.
What if I mess up?
Don't worry, you will. But also, they are there to help you. If you get off track, they will sing along with you until you get it back together. If you don't get it back together, they will continue to play and sing as if nothing is happening. And when you're done, they will tell you a joke to make you laugh or maybe just shout your name to the crowd who will then burst into riotous applause for you. It's alllll good.
How many songs are there?
A goodly amount.
Are they any good?
Actually, I have no idea but I am going to assume that they are because they get hired a lot and have a lot of people that come up and sing with them. Also, I have fun every single time I go to one of their shows so I think that means yes; they are very good.
Should I sing "Don't Stop Believin'" by Journey?
No.
So what does this have to do with gratitude? Is this just a paid advertisement or what the heck is going on here?
First of all, that question was a little rude. Second of all, it has everything to do with gratitude because I am grateful to them for being an awesome band and letting me sing with them and all the fun times that they have been a party to (see what I did there?). Also, rather than getting a restraining order, they instead learned one of my signature songs so I kind of feel like a VIP fan at this point. Additionally, they don't actually know that I'm writing this post or that I stole their logo to do it so maybe let's keep it on the DL, K? K, thanks!
P.S. This is their "actual" website if you want things like "accurate" information and "non-offensive" language and themes: Hans & The Wanted.
P.P.S. I'm not officially associated with them in any way so don't take anything I say even remotely seriously.

ReplyDeleteThis sounds awesome! I also love all of the disclaimers. And if the pope really does poop in your mouth the spit don't swallow! You could sell that holy excrement on ebay for big money.
