Go Your Own Way...Go Your Own Wayyy-ayyy

You Can Go Your Own Way...
Mark... *gasp* ... sings?

And badly! Though a few kind folks said I managed to at least stay on key.

Last night, I swore walking into the Barking Dog (the karaoke bar) that I was only going in for a beer or two and I wasn't going to sing. One pint of Guinness and a shot of something called "Birthday Cake" later, a coworker and the person who usually coerces me into this had me on stage singing "You're the One That I Want" from Grease.

My coworker is pregnant and can't drink so she was especially eager to entertain herself. So we belted out a second song, "Go Your Own Way" by Fleetwood Mac. I'd had a second Guinness before this, a pint of courage before making a fool of myself in front of coworkers. At least this time, she was sober.

I got a photo this round, but thankfully the friend taking the shot didn't know how to shoot video on my camera.

Good to know you can be talked into stuff when you have a little alcohol!! LOL

It was peer pressure, I swear. Those ladies from class are tenacious.

It was a public service really. There was one guy singing who was brutally bad... I mean we're talking American Idol audition bad... so I feel like I was keeping him from singing another song at least :)

Well as long as you looking out for the rest of the audience, I guess its okay. ;-)

Courage in a pint is ALWAYS helpful when doing karaoke! It looks like you were having fun and that's all that matters.

Honestly, I had someone take this photo as evidentiary proof that I did this. I thought you might find it amusing. Note there is no sound. I'm really thinking of you all :)

I would have paid good money to be there. With my cameras that shoot video. *giggle* Good for you!

Isn't Guiness a marvel?... it can induce captions like 'Cute Bear Sings!'
