I was going to be all lazy and not review this place since Shari M. and Avitania B. pretty much covered everything I wanted to say but my sense of Yelp civic duty kicked in when I saw that it had an average rating of 3.5 stars. My experience was 2-stars at the most.
Chief complaint: Severely limited song selection. If all you sing at karaoke are current Top 40 hits then this place was designed for you. I am not this patron.
Other complaints:
-Retarded browsing system instead of song books; you have to use a remote control to scroll through artists' names on a single screen. This means only one person can browse and select at a time, and the artists were arranged in some strange order that was neither strictly alphabetical nor by genre. WTF?
-Lyrics missing from some videos; I don't know all the words to Kanye's "Gold Digger" by heart. Can a bitch get some help with the lyrics, yo?
-Actual music videos instead of the hilariously cheesy B-grade karaoke videos. This is just wrong.
-The place smells of greasy Chinese food.
-Pricey if you don't use enough of the alcohol credit for the room.[1]
The two stars are for:
-A/C
-Not smelling like a bordello
-Not judging when they're closing up and you down a full glass of vodka and need to be escorted out of the building with a barf bag[2]
