Care to Karaoke?

There are few things more demoralizing than singing karaoke to an empty room.

Poorly attended paint and sips and wardrobe malfunctions are in the running, but I am not sure either arrive at downright depressing.

We started adding Karaoke to our Heart Gallery event offerings after I realized the only thing better than spontaneous sing-alongs, were sing-a-longs with hot mics and lyrical guidance. All of the patrons we polled expressed excitement about the prospect and promised their attendance.

In reality, our karaoke nights look more like a break up scene in a bad rom-com, replete with a lonely bartender and a DJ dressed up like a wizard. Why a wizard? Because we believed we were bringing magic to Burien. But, I think he might just be making people uncomfortable.
