The old adage when in Japan do as the Japanese do might apply... Get pissed as quickly as you can, fall asleep on a station platform.

The only place to do Karaoke is in a place, in a city, and in a country to which you will never return.

Trouble is that next week I'll be breaking my own rule  scared2:

OK, 'fessing up time...

Some sleazy very exclusive clip-joint Karaoke Bar in downtown Seoul, South Korea being entertained ( eeek: ) by the Product Development & Design team ( + secretaries) of a growing company. I was assured that it was quite normal obligatory and everyone would take their turn and, true to their word, they did!

After several beers... and a few more, my turn came to pick from the menu...  scared2:

I can't think or recall what possessed me but I decided to do ...

Nice long guitar intro and then the lyrics came up and I was away  razz:

Most of the wimmin sang along to Korean pop songs which were accompanied by Japanese soft core porn on the video  eeek: eeek:.  My comments on this were met with blushes  eyes:

We rounded off the evening with everyone doing My Way ...  surrender:

I shall now go and commit Hari Kiri   redface:

Oh, I forgot... there's more!  Once on a trip to Taiwan there was an afternoon when nothing much was going on (meetings etc.) so I was asked if I wanted to spend some time with the family and do what they were doing. Fine by me, I thought...

Up to the family room for Karaoke practice!  eeek: eeek:  The kids wanted tuition in better pronunciation of their Beatles song book!   redface: redface:
