The work on the new space has progressed so smoothly (thanks to the efforts of many of you!) that Annie, Sean and Valerie have decided to have a Special Grand Opening Back Room Karaoke Party on Friday the 13th. There is even a stage (being built as I type this) in the karaoke room to enhance the "I'm a Rock Star" illusion.
Front Room: LIVE MUSIC (yay!) with The Grannies and The Naysayers - plus Spike (of Me First & The Gimme Gimmes, Swingin' Utters and the OG of karaoke at Annie's) spinning his fave tracks.
Back Room: Duh - Karaoke
And for those of you who were concerned about the fate of the Annie's Cocktail Lounge jukebox, fret no more - All discs are coming over to Annie's Social Club.
Free admission to ALL on Friday the 13th.

Re: Grand Opening - Friday the 13th of January
Thu, January 12, 2006 - 4:11 PMJody and I will be co-hosting... giving us both a chance to enjoy the music in the other room AND figure out how we're going to be getting our drinks on nights we'll be hosting alone. How do you do it on Leisure nights?

Re: Grand Opening - Friday the 13th of January
Thu, January 12, 2006 - 7:22 PMI usually get friends to get drinks for me. And while I bitch about them not tipping at Leisure, some people bribe their ways to the top of the rotation by presenting me with random vodka martinis. A two-person rotation is a good idea. We were originally going to do that with Leisure, but the scheduled co-host flaked like a dandruffy scalp. I was able to hang with it. Omar and Aaron realized that I managed just fine, and they just kept it as me running the show ever since.
