Bob forgot to mention that Jean Genet are on at 6pm, so if you have anything else to do on a Saturday evening you can see JG in all their lo-fi disco ho-ness and then go and drink/cottage/see Smog/go to Majestyk whatever.
I had so much fun at the Bridge! I just wish I could have sung more. Alice and I sand Summer Nights, from Grease. It was good fun. I want to repeat the experience.
Alby - So how did you like that?
A friend - It was beautiful, but it didn't sound like you. I saw you sing but I didn't recognise your voice.
Alby - Is that good or bad?
A friend - It's good, it's good.
Okay, crap speaking voice, good singing voice. At least it's something.

Thats good! my talents only stretch as far as doing barbie girl n singin the man bits (my m8 Adam used 2 sing barbies bits) and occasionally ripping the piss outta M-people songs by tryin 2 sing wi sum deep growly voice.... it broke down the monotony of depressing love songs that made u wanna down ya pint, smash the glass n spend the night huddled in a corner cryin n cuttin yaself 2 shreads. Also only sang cos it wer £1 a pint night so I'd get twatted on pints and decide that i wanted to win the prize (3 winners, crate of 24 VK - so 8 bottles each, had 2b drank in half an hour) best one were the night when me n Adam won the full crate of 24 to ourselves, we'd only had 2 pints all night and wer messin around doin barbie girl (givin each other wedgies) attemptin 2 sing Hot Stuff but failing miserably due to dodgy karoke video of a woman wearing marigolds doing unspeakable things with a banana, had 2 share the images wi the rest of the pub n spend the whole song cryin laughin down the mic, then redeemed our twattishness by singin swear it again (perfectly). we won 4 the best song of the night with Swear it again, Biggest twats of the night for the barbie girl performance and won funniest attempt at singin 4 Hot Stuff, then spent half an hour downing bottles b4 pub shut, god we went home hammered!

Dave, I think I would have paid to see that. Although my karaoke experience at the Year 12 leaver's ball, where I fell off the stage and then got in a huge punch-up with my best friend Het while singing 'Every Day is a Winding Road' by Sheryl Crow was quite legendary.
Karaoke was so much fun, though! I think we should do a society trip to The Bridge one Thursday and people wanting to go to Mission or anywhere else can do that afterwards.
its true i had been on the gum again, sent me fookin mad!
Havin a punch up wi ya best mate on karoke sounds funny. Think best me n Adam got were when he undid me bra during middle of a song (he had this talent 4 undoin bra's 1-handed in bout 2 seconds flat) n I gave him a proper harsh wedgie, made him hit the high note so it wer all good i guess, this carried on all song n he wound it up by twattin me over head wi microphone... got thrown out about 10mins later after pints started 2 get lobbed about. Was probably a good thing cos we had overdone it on the £1 a pint offer
