For those who've never tried it, I suggest starting with another song besides Journey's "Who's Crying Now." The ballad which contains lots and lots of high notes made my voice quiet hoarse.
I lost my karaoke virginity some time shortly right before or after midnight at the semi-annual "Yes Weekly!" Christmas party at The Greene Streete Club in downtown Greensboro last night. There was one person was said I did a 'great job?!'
I have to thank Brian Clarey, the editor of "Yes Weekly!," which is Greensboro's alternative newspaper_ and, in my view a far superior product to the city's newspaper "The News-Record." He was the one who invited to the party through FaceBook.
The highlight had to be an erotic version of "Santa Baby" performed by scantily clad young ladies in Santa hats and black bras with candy canes. I wish Mitt Romney, who was reportedly last in North Carolina to attend a fund-raiser by the owner of the Carolina Hurricanes hockey team in Raleigh, could have been there to see it!
Perhaps, next year we'll see Sen. Elizabeth Dole (R-NC) there. If her husband comes, he definitely won't need to worry about taking Viagra!
In the current issue of "Yes Weekly!," reporter Jordan Green, who was also at the party, wrote a great story on how a defense contractor firm in High Point, NC, is trying to get Rudy Giuliani in The White House by skirting campaign finance laws.
For everyone there, it was more fun than being a five-year-old kid who still believes in Santa Claus on Christmas Eve, and I didn't even get to mentioning how the band covered Duran Duran's "Hungry Like the Wolf!"
