Saturday night, Emily and I put on our fancy duds and headed out to enjoy the only worthwhile nightlife in our town...

You know him, you love him. Ladies and gentleman, put your hands together and give a warm welcome to Chi-Chi's Mexican Mall Strip's very own, Music Man Jo-Jo Russell! (Yo, y'all may remember Jo Jo from entries like "Thanksgiving 2002," the good news is, his long-promised website is finally up and running!)

...Saturday night karaoke at Chi-Chi's Mexican Strip Mall restaurant. Holla!

Here's me repping for the home state...

...and giving love a bad name.

Miye wasn't ready to brave the karaoke stage solo, so I helped ease her on in by teaming up for a duet. She spent more time sucking down her drink than she did singing.
me + karaoke
Leila took a quick break from her make out sesh to writhe and gratuitously cup her breasts next to me on stage while I sang. Thanks for that, hon. Motley Crue karaoke just isn't the same without a girl on the stage touching herself and shimmying suggestively.

Yet again! As soon as she see's someone hold up a camera, *poof*, she hides.
me + karaoke
Me flanked by Leila and Chiara (aka - "The Trouble Twins") I sang, um, something. (See how Chiara's hiding again?)
me + karaoke
And then she topped it by doing the best interpretive dance I've ever seen of Bryan Adams' "Summer of '69."

Group shot.

There really wasn't anything you could have expected me to do! It was, in fact, a total eclipse of the heart. So just turn around, bright eyes! Ok?

Rachael and I doing a duet.
me + karaoke
I'm going to guess it was either "Gloria" or "Cum On Feel Tha Noize."
me + karaoke
By the look on my face in both of these I was singing something very high.

I think we were singing "Total Eclipse of the Heart."
me + karaoke
Here's Jamie singing "Bohemian Rhapsody" - and somewhere in the middle of the song, someone just handed me the most memorable children's toy in recent years...The Giant Hulk Fist.
me + karaoke
Eighteen and life, YOU'VE got it.

Here's us kicking off the night right with a duet of Bonnie Tyler's "Total Eclipse of the Heart"

Yep, and this one too. (Although, now that I think about it, I think we all might have been singing the four-part back up bit to Aerosmith's "Love In An Elevator" in these last two.)

Guess who's moving to NYC soon?

"I was working as a waitress in a cocktail bar. That much is true..."
me + karaoke
"Don't you want me, baby? Don't you want me, oh-oh-oh-ohhh."
me + karaoke
"You were working as a waitress in a cocktail bar when I met you."

Big Daddy tearing it up with Huey Lewis' seminal "I Want a New Drug." Homeboy kicked it so hard he needed not one, but two blonde, hula-clad male dancers. Check out that face; the urgency - can't you see how much Big Daddy wants that new drug?
me + karaoke
I kicked off the night with my version of, um, errrrr, who knows - I guess that's why I shouldn't let over three months go by before I get around to captioning these stupid photos.

Orange scarf? Hey, when you're doing karaoke three times a week after awhile you find you need "props" to "spice things up."
me + karaoke
Candy and I reminded everyone that Roxanne did indeed not need to be putting on that red light. Seriously, those days are over, Rox. For seriously.
me + karaoke
Complete with mad Twister scramble during the instrumental break...
me + karaoke
And for the big finale of the night, Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody!"
me + karaoke
What, you don't believe me? See those two smoking hot, blonde hula girls? Yeah, that's right! They got so hot and bothered by my karaoke jam that right after i was done singing they took me in the bathroom and I totally got down with both of them! So who's gay now, huh? Huh?
me + karaoke
Wait, what's that I gotta have again?
me + karaoke
Yo, you can diss and say that karaoke's gay and all. But you clearly have no idea what you're talking about because karaoke makes chicks totally hot and then they want to do you.

..."Baby's Got Back!"
me + karaoke
She's got eyes of the bluest skies...
me + karaoke
You know what baby's got...
me + karaoke
Duet with a stranger.

Making new friends through the universal language of music.

Me singing George Michael's "Faith."
me + karaoke
Lo and I warmed things up with a not-so-great rendition of the '91 Spin Doctor's jam "Two Princes." (Yo, you might think this song is easy - but don't forget, there's like 2 minutes of hippyesque scatting at the end. Ugh).
me + karaoke
Damn. We're still glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife, you know what I'm saying?
me + karaoke
Later on in the evening, Lo and I reprised our version of Meatloaf's "Paradise By the Dashboard Lights" which was last heard at her birthday party last April.
me + karaoke
While I did my best to channel McCartney's scream...

Grant, me, Emma.
