Have You Ever.......?

I may be drummed off the Q board after thus - read on. After a very stressful week last night went to dinner with some girlfriends met up with DH in our local "saloon" afterwards. Yes it is a saloon we live down road from Tombstone way out west.

Anyway turns out it is kareoke night. Had my Chardonnay then another one then decided kareoke here I come. Never ever done this before - got an off key voice - danced sang to "I've got friends in low places" (appropriate eh?) having a taste for it - and the Chardonnay - followed up with selection of Abba then got DH up for duet - left there at midnight still singing!

Walking the dogs this a.m. People I met all calling out - great night, you did good etc. etc.

Ladies be warned see what stress can do to you

Good for you!

The worst I did at the height of my stress was to beat up my refrigerator in the garage (don't ask). So, well done! Much more constructive and less bruises.

That is a cute story and I am glad you let loose and enjoyed yourself...why not.I once sang in big lots because the song was a favourite and a lady came around the corner and told me that I should never do that.I do have the worst voice in the world but that doesn't mean it shouldn't be heard.

No, i've never but I think that sounds like a blast! Kareoke is supposed to be fun and not just for good singers. Good for you I say!

My angle - maybe the other customers had more alcohol in them than you did!

Life is short. It sounds like you had a great time and you made a wonderful memory to look back on some day.

Hi @dulwich

I love this story! I can't keep on tune either, I've been told that all my life.

What kind of Welsh women are we?!

I love to sing but it would take more than Chardonnay to get me up for karaoke, but I do love the idea of going to an authentic saloon

@Noel7. Hi Noel I do not think I will attempt it again. I had never actually seen kareoke before. Yes our saloon is very western - lots of old miners, some genuine cowboys plus soldiers from the Fort and bikers. Everyone very friendly and I now seem to know - judging by my walk this a.m, - a lot more people! As you say it is our Welsh heritage.
