Thursdays: Karaoke at Phase 1

This post was submitted by Meaghan, who has a penchant for crafts, cooking, organization and party planning.

Hey Queers (especially the ladies)!

I don't want to hear it! I had a nice long chat with the manager of Phase 1 the other night, after I recovered from a wild night of karaoke and Jack Daniels, and we both remain perplexed...

Why the hell aren't people coming out to Karaoke night at Phase every Thursday?

We don't get it. The people who do manage to stroll in love every second of it. There are brave souls who wander in single and charm the pants off the crowd (and maybe even a lucky lady), rowdy regulars who hog the mic a little (but never fail to entertain), and hilarious folks who pick the most ridiculous songs and sing the hell out of them. How could you resist?

So I implore thee, this Thursday or one in the near future, take a nap after work and then jump in the shower. Warm up the vocal cords, like I do by screeching "Hot Blooded" by Foreigner to your bath product audience, or whatever suits your fancy. Put on your most comfortable jeans and a vintage 70s band t-shirt or a boa or even a cowboy hat, and head on down to Barracks Row. Even if you don't muster up the courage to say hello to a new friend or get on stage and sing some Duran, Duran you can be confident that you'll leave the bar ridiculously pleased with your experience and ready to tell all of your friends about it.

So get out to PHASE 1 tomorrow night, pick a few songs, and rock the hell out. We'll be there to cheer you on and to put our lighters up.

Phase 1 is located at 525 8th Street SE, just two blocks from the Eastern Market metro stop (orange & blue lines).
