Karaoke Confessional
March 27, 2010
OK, so I hang out at Karaoke. I freely and fully admit it. Not every week mind you, what with working a full time job, school at night, a kid at home, stuff like that. But every couple of weeks or so, I do end up at some restaurant and/or bar where a group of folks are enthusiastically singing their hearts out with the help of wordless music and words on a screen.
Like other situations where people show up to pursue something they enjoy, you get familiar with some of the regulars. And then they worry when you haven’t been around in a long while. They may even ask folks they know you socialize with outside of Karaoke if you are OK, and what are you up to.
You even develop a bit of an immunity to the those who tend to sing between the notes or too fast or slow/
So where is the confessional? The juicy bit you are waiting for ?
Well…deep breathe…ready? In all those nights I’ve sat there, through song after song, clapping politely or enthusiastically for each singer…
I have yet to step up to the mike !
The idea scares the hell out of me! I guess that is why I can appreciate even the less talented singers. They have the guts to get up there and sing their hearts out!
I keep telling myself I’ll get up there when…
- I find the right song
- I have had the time to practice
- I feel brave enough
Will it ever happen? I don’t really know yet. But until then, I’ll be there, applauding joyfully for everyone else!
