well here goes my credibility (what little there was)... back in my high school days we went to the quarter a lot. a friend and i always brought down the house (at least in our own minds) with bon jovi's "wanted dead or alive". i've probably performed that song a few dozen times. i don't think i've karaoked since age 18. kinda grew out of it.
Alright, your cool meter just dropped through the floor. But, since we are coming clean...here it goes: my choice of song for my one and only karaoke performance was pretty bad, too. It was.......... whoomp, there it is. Mods, you may now kick me off the board.
I hear ya, Bad medicine. I bet you and your acid washed jeans wearing buddy sounded great down in the quarter.:nope: I bet ya'll really tore it up down on Bourbon, didn't ya there, Slippery When Wet?:hihi:
I think I may have y'all both beat. I "performed" summer lovin' with some ugly chick in a bar one night.
My memory of that night is a little foggy but I do remember some "Sweet Child of Mine" and "American Woman" :grin: :grin:
:rofl: "Bad Medicine" Man, I loved that song. Screw it, I loved all their songs, 'til Jon went solo and gay on us. Speaking of karoake, this isn't in my top 50 dumb drunk acts list, but relevant to karaoke. As most of you know, I love Guns N Roses more than almost everything in my life (right after family, pets, football.) Well at that bar in the Quarter (completely drawing a blank about the name...next to Gold Mine, I think) that does Karaoke, I saw some folks were going to sing "Paradise City." I felt a complete sense of entitlement to join in, since they're my favorite band and all. SO I hopped on stage in time for the first chorus, and was appalled that they didn't know the words, and I kinda flipped out, chasing them off the stage. I managed to get through the second verse solo before somebody (either security or friends, I don't recall) got me off the stage. It was awesome. Another time at the same bar, a buddy of mine was hammered out of his mind, and we signed him up for "Let's hear it for the boys." Pushed him on stage, and he actually sang about a minute of the song before realizing what he was doing. He pledged to kill each of us individually throughout the night. :rofl:
Her saying 19 but looking 15...:shock: I guess mine would have to be during one spring break in Panama City. Ripped playing quarters and all of the sudden feeling very hot. I remember vaguely throwing my underwear at one of my friends as he was trying to get me back into the hotel. I do remember the water was cold. Maybe that is why I didn't have a girl that night.
