KEYBOARD KARAOKE
LAST SATURDAY EVERY OTHER MONTH 8:30PM
Karaoke at the Ancient Mariner with Glen and Gus!
This is LIVE Karaoke - so no midi, no backing tracks, no balls bouncing over the lyrics on a massive screen as you lose your place for the hundredth time cos you had too much wine...
This is LIVE Karaoke - so you sing your choice of song with a live professional accompaniment, as if you have your very own band! You choose the song from a well-curated repertoire of more than 250 classics - and Glen will play the song on the piano from his voluminous memory, and find a key and pace to suit you...
Come on down for what will be a magnificent evening in which to discover your fabulous self - sing your favourite songs in a fun and relaxed environment.
It's a 8.30pm start so you can all get sufficiently lubricated, and we'll go on until you can't take any more - and most importantly, ALL VOICES are welcome! The wonderful, weird and the downright atrocious...
