I totally agree with E regarding Greenbox - food, choice of songs, sound system – all of which are good. They even provide coverlets for the mikes, so that people don’t drool all over them. They look like miniature shower caps. You can take these home and use as socks for your dogs’ paws or use them to cover your ears if someone’s singing gets too horrid! The added advantage is that it is located at the new J.J. and since it’s on this side of the bridge, even I can drive there.
Our birthday treat for E (karaoke + buffet) was scheduled for Monday 14/01. However, on E’s birthday i.e. last Friday, E and Diane made an impromptu decision to go for the karaoke package since the birthday person gets to go for free. E ajak-ed all of us but only I (F for Forever free) could make it. That night the 3 of us sang from 8pm till 2.00 a.m. And I think we left only because they shut our karaoke system down - we couldn’t key in any more songs. It was really worth it because the package was supposed to be for 3 hrs and thereafter if one wanted to stay you had to pay for the next package, i.e. the Supper package that is supposed to cost about RM22.00 per head. The staff even invited us to supper but by then we were too full to eat anything. Since there were only 3 of us, we keyed in all type of rojak songs, tak kisah can sing or not, try-la. At the end of the day we were tired but satisfied that we all got to sing kow-kow!
On Monday as planned, we met at Greenbox shortly after 7.00p.m. Earlier in the day, in the midst of our chat on MSN, E said, “Tonight u all sing. My throat’s a bit sore. You all serenade me.” Tipu one, she sang all right! When asked about it, she replied, “suddenly throat ok-liow!” Anyway, we each had equal opportunity to sing the songs of our own choosing. M was requesting for a few “roses” songs that night eg. Rose Garden and Paper Roses.(Valentine’s Day approaching?) M was Ms. Busy that night as she kept going out of the room to take her calls. To sidetrack - psst .. M has a secret but we are not allowed to reveal it to the masses yet and keeping it in is killing me. Don’t know about the rest but I am dying to blah it out. Of course since she doesn’t read this blog, I can always satisfy my urge and say it out. Hmm…
To get back to Greenbox and karaoke, That night we left at about 1.00 a.m. We didn’t get chased out, it was just that we had to work the next day so we left. The choices of songs are so wide that we can all find ‘new’ songs to sing. New, in the sense that we have never attempted to sing these songs before. When your girls come home for their holidays, E, they will be impressed! The aunties are finally singing different songs from precious years. Yehh…
