And of course you can warm the vocal chords with a pre-choir drink from 8pm at the TNDC gathering

Re: Lausanne Karaoke Night #3

If you come practice at the karaoke night, then maybe one day you'll get to sing on the jumbotron at a major sports event. Here's an awesome clip of a guy at a Boston Celtics game:


To hear the huge audience reaction the guy got, then watch this version:


nzuelzke - since this is in Boston, and the guy is doing an awesome rendition of Bon Jovi, I was wondering if it was you in the days when you had longer hair?

I've only been to one Celtic's game and, sadly, this was not it. However, once when getting a tour of this same venue with my architecture class, the setup crew was blasting Sweet Child o' Mine and my instructor caught me belting the vocal finale to a group of similarly bored and distracted colleagues in the stands. I was thereafter referred to as "Rock Star" or something equally hokey.
This guy actually looks and acts a lot like our friend Trevor.

From said friend Trevor:
"no, not really my style, though there are a few moves in there I might steal. Especially @1:18. What is that and how does one get away with it?"

It took me a while to figure out what you were talking about, but then I realized that the 1:18 is for the timing on the second version of it that I posted, which differs from the first one. It's not entirely clear what he's doing there, but I think I know what Trevor thinks/hopes happened.

Re: Lausanne Karaoke Night #3

Do you know the street address of the Cafe?

In other news, I think I can feel an ABBA song coming on already....

Err... it is underneath 'Darling' pub, on the corner of the Galerie St-François and Avenue Benjamin Constant.

[so, the answer to your question is "no" ]

It is as robban says... Their website lists Galerie St.François as the street address, so I guess either that's right or even they don't know.

See you all tonight!
