Foggy Bottom Posted August 6, 2007 Share Posted August 6, 2007 Full Moon of Loy Kratong this year (2007) is 24th Nov (a Saturday) So how's about a special expat kroaky (karaoke) competition at your restaurant? Maybe sharing a 2nd round and final with other venues such as Tusk-tusk (tut-tut?) and The Pub - nice beer shame about the ......... (? insert your own preference of noun) 1st Round - Week before LK (Sat 17th Nov) is "Constructive lyrics night" - how much can you "localise" the lyrics of your favourite English language song - "Hotel Huay Kaew Road", "Midnight at the Khao San Road" etc etc etc - not about singing, but about lyric writing. BUT - you write it = you "sing" it !!! (That's Austhaied totally knackered then - hehehehehe ) 2nd Round - Week after LK (31st Nov) starts to be about singing ability, but includes a new song localised by the singer = combo of the two skills (best singer might not win through to the final, but the most entertaining one might ). Final (7th Dec and start of Xmas run-up) is finals = combo of singing skills and lyricism and entertainment and making a total plonker of yerself e.g. WHITE CHRISTMAS (Bong Crispy version) I'm dreaming of a white Christmas, Just like the ones I used to know. Where those beer-tops glisten, And bargirls listen To hear khatoeys in the show. I'm dreaming of a white Christmas, With every cute face that I sight, "May your smiles be merry and bright, And may all your bar-fine bills be light". blah blah blah What da ya say oh shiny headed one - ya up for hosting & sponsoring something like this? C'mon - give the whole Chiangmai forum something to look forward to for the chilly season. Gaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThaiPauly Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 Well as you know my own particular kareoke skills leave a lot to be desired, but we would be more than happy to be involved in some way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foggy Bottom Posted August 7, 2007 Author Share Posted August 7, 2007 Jolly good - as you know, your kroaky skills make you a Pavarotti compared to my Kermit the Frog Just thought it could be a good wheeze for the build up to Christmas, without interfering with the overload of Christmas festivities we have each year Now if we can get a few others to go for it and build some momentum into such an event ...........
