The List at karaoke is a lie Neo. You either pay to sing or wait for "the 3 people ahead of you". The good news is they have a liquor license and no detectable smell last night. To become a member is easy, fill out a form & pay a $1. As you wind down the corridor to the main room note the free popcorn machine. Yes, the place is tiny. Shockingly so.
The front man at the door and bartending staff are polite and perfunctory so don't expect a lot of chit chat. They'll get your mixed drink or beer (choices are $4 drafts or bottles ) just fine and move on to the next thirsty patron.
So the bar is really, really small. You'll easily be able to see & hear who's singing or judge the line at the bar. If you want to sign up to sing, you need only shuffle, squish and slip through the crowd to get to the books to pick your song. If you only want to be entertained by the likes of a death metal interpretation of Miley Cyrus's "Wrecking Ball" you'll be all set.
The bad news is if you want to sing. I get it the karaoke hostess works for tips. But 4 different individuals up on stage 4 times each, and seeing the same off key dude 6 times in 2 hours? Total bullshit. Tip for service after you sing, not tip just to even get service. When the rest of the audience groans with the lack of participant rotation I'm not out of place to knock off stars. Don't bother looking at the list on the hostess desk, because she's going in no discernible order, neither in the order signed up or juggling people by what they want to sing to keep the mood right. Nor in 45 minutes should one be told "there's 3 people ahead of you" multiple times.
Fine place to drink or watch, terrible place to sing.
