Or maybe it's the third of the nine other karaoke bars that have that.

She gets just drunk enough to totally let loose...and she's got a good enough voice that she REALLY lets loose when she's loose. She gets into it, but not in an obnoxious way (if there even IS such a thing in karaoke). They brought in a karaoke machine for their home Xmas party last year...and as you can imagine, it was a HUGE hit. :) Gwen, best karaoke post EVER! :) My sister-in-law is FABULOUS at karaoke, for many of the reasons you listed.

I've always been in favor of the beginner tip: if you're scared or unprepared, find a song everyone knows and loves. Stage-fright increases exponentially when you're introducing new tunes and can't rock it out. Rockstar!
