So, the details for the much-anticipated karaoke evening, filled to the brim with Hoydenizen renditions of the Hottest 100 Women as well as some trashy favourites, I don’t doubt, are below:

Where: Karaoke World, Basement, 185 Elizabeth St, Sydney.

When: Either the 16th or the 22nd or the 30th of January (I’m ruling out all other days, but please vote in your comment below. Date to be confirmed by 2nd January) and I think 7-10 pm.

Cost: It shouldn’t be too much, given that we can book a room to fit our number. A max of about $20 each (I’ll let you know if it’s more in advance).

What to bring: Your lovely selves, moolah for beverage purchases at the venue (as it’s sadly not BYO) and for the room itself.

Accessibility: I’ve been assured that there’s wheelchair access, but parts of the venue are singularly inaccessible, so if you are concerned about accessibility, please let me know so that I can ensure that we are in the accessible parts (there’s a contact form over at my blog if you want to get in contact with me directly). Please also be warned that some of the rooms can be pretty small (they pack us in!).

I will need confirmed RSVPs a week before. So let me know what date would work for you, and then I’ll adjust the post after the 2nd Jan to reflect the final date, so you can finalise your RSVPs up til a week before. Let me know if you have any questions!

ETA: It’s looking like the 30th is the best option for the most people. I’m afraid this means that Orlando probably won’t be able to make it, given that she’s flying away across the sea to take up a new position in New Zealand! I’m so sorry about that, Orlando; sharing ‘Respect’ with you would have been a singularly amazing experience! But perhaps we’ll arrange a ‘welcome back!’ repeat event for when you head back to these sunny shores. Alternatively, I’m up for overloading on events and having an afternoon drink on the 16th or 17th of January, if any would like to do that as well (especially you, Orlando!)

Everyone else, please confirm your RSVPs by the 23rd, and I’ll book for us all!

Excellent night indeed! I’d definitely be in for another one.

I expect to see a deep and meaningful post on the fascinating lyrical variations we saw last night. There’s got to be some fodder in:

“Lenin read a book on Mass”
“Dig in, the dancing queen”
and still my favourite for the night
“We’re gonna go all the way in tonight”

Teehee! That *was* a fun gag tigtog! I was pleased that miniFP was up late enough for me to let him know that I’d rickrolled proceedings! He’s a rickroll fanatic!

And Ariane, ‘We’re gonna go all the way in tonight’ had me laughing aloud as I was dropping off to sleep. ‘This boots are made for walking’ wasn’t bad either but nothing was topping ‘all the way in’.

Sounds like y’all had a fabulous time! I shall have to see if I can drag my arse up from Canberra if you arrange something similar again. :)

We did and you should! I’ve just remembered my FAVOURITE part of the night though, when the sound suddenly cut out to ’so people always think you can’t have sex with a Time Lord!!’. :)

Well if you hadn’t interrupted our conversation about Time Lord sex by starting off the song in the first place!!!

:) Honestly one of the funniest ‘timing’ moments I’ve been witness to in a long time!

    There are, it has been said, two types of people in the world. There are those who, when presented with a glass that is exactly half full, say: this glass is half full. And then there are those who say: this glass is half empty. The world belongs, however, to those who can look at the glass and say: What's up with this glass? Excuse me? Excuse me? This is my glass? I don't think so. My glass was full! And it was a bigger glass!
