"It's a, nice day for a, White Wedding..."

...Such was the case of 'art imitating life'. Rockstar was singing Billy Idol's "White Wedding", while Kenny's was decked out for, well, a 'White Wedding'. They really 'classed up the joint' with white tablecloths; white linen decorations on the walls and stage; and a white buffet table - complete with buffet food! Apparently, a Kenny's family member was celebrating their special occasion - quite the celebration indeed! There were even pretty little candle decorations on the large circular tables that covered the floor space. Unfortunately, due to 'technical difficulties', I wasn't able to capture any of the evening on film, so, we'll just have 'kick it old school', and use our memory, and imaginations.

Not Kenny's wedding decorations











John D. rocked the house with 'What's Goin' On'; Mrs. D. followed suit with "Walk Like An Egyptian." I can tell you that it was quite the scene w/Davy Monster; Marky Mark; and myself 'walking like an Egyptian' across the floor of Kenny's. A definite missed photo opportunity.

Some CCK 'newbies' - Tal, from Israel, got up and belted an awesome tune! According to my notes, looks like 'Everything...alright', so, if anyone can help on what that might be, let me know and I'll give her 'proper props'. Eric, another 'newbie', sang Nickelback's 'Rockstar'; Bobby sang "Roadhouse Blues"; Danielle & Colin sang some Stevie Wonder; Dave sang "Love Me Tender"; and Catherine (who I thank profusely for finding my brand new earring) sang "Bette Davis Eyes".'Showtime' Shon was in the house, and sang an awesome rendition of "Imagine"; Marky Mark got lots of 'props' for "Houndog"; Jaye gave us "Signed, Sealed, Delivered"; and Selene sang some Kelly Clarkson, "Behind These Hazel Eyes". Subbing for Ryan was Bran-DOHN, who took it upon himself to give some of us a particular intro song. For Rockin' Robin, who RAILED on Joan Jett's "Hate Myself for Lovin' You", he played,

"Rockin' Robin -- tweet tweet..."

And for me, well, this was my entrance song:

"Da da da - da da da da...Da da da - da da

da da da
Da...
(boom boom)

Da Da...(boom boom)
"Da da da da - da da da da da..."

Uh, did you recognize that? Maybe it'll 'ring some bells' if you sing it with the 'STRIPPER MUSIC' music that Brandon so cleverly picked for me, lol...!!!! I was actually having Deja vu - didn't I already do this?

Anyway, during the break, Richard did some stand-up; then during the second set 'Tony Tony Tony' sang "Sunday Bloody Sunday"; Davy Monster sang "The Boxer"; Christine sang "Fever"; Kate's brother Joe got the crowd goin' with "Don't Fear The Reaper"; and Natalie sang "Wonderwall" - much to the sheer and utter delight of one of the UK audience members wearing an 'Oasis' T-shirt.

"Blimey! I can't believe anyone in the Sat

es even knows who 'Oasis' is!"

Well, uh, yeah...

"Today is gonna be the day that they're gonna bring it back to you..."

Oasis

Some noteworthy entrances include -- three guys who walked into a bar wearing kilts... no really - no joke - three guys really did walk into the bar wearing kilts! ;)

Not THE three guys who walked in the bar wearing kilts...

Also, Ryan and his lovely lady friend made their entrance a little later, and Ryan got up to sing "Plush"; and 'Skywalker' sang Lenny Kravitz' "Fly Away"; and Billy sang "Pinball Wizard"!

Some of us rocked out some new songs -- props to Rockin' Robin for the John Jett song; John D. sang "Ain't No Sunshine"; and Selene sang "Reflections" - a fave of Brandon's! Hmm, could another 'karoke lottery' be very far behind?

Some programming notes about January's karaoke -- Alan and Andy will be traveling with their band 'Solar Punch' through India for the 'Climate Solutions Road Trip: Voices of India!' So, Crash Course Karaoke will be performing in modified form, with the bass role held by Joe Mitch (first two Sundays in Jan.) and by Greg Ross (last Sunday in Jan.). And Ryan will lead traditional karaoke on the third Sunday.

For more info. please visit: www.indiaclimatesolutions.com and www.solarpunch.org.

Ok folks - I will see you for the first 'modified Sunday', this Sunday! Have a wonderful Happy New Year! Cheers!
