lolz. Well you could say it's party.
Karaoke is a place where you can rent a room for some hours and then they will give you a list of song that you can sing by yourself / other can sing. So if you want to sing any songs, just choose it and tell the host (the one who own place where you rent) and they'll play it via Televion for you (kinda play a CD for you). Of course they'll offer lyric as well so you can look at it if you don't remember. Besides that, the host sell drinks and food too ^^
It's a way of fun and take out stress so people likes to do it. You can go with friends, or go alone :)
I hope you can understand now :lovely:
i know what karaoke, but thanks for explaining.. it is so different from here in the netherlands there are no karoake bars.. or how hte hell their called.. so i was just wondering :)

^^ well it's fun and take out your stress, because you can yell out loud or sing yourself till you're dead tired and no one will complain about it ^^ It's a private place. have lots of cool musics and food and drinks. It's not place where under-age cannot come (like real bar) so it's cool for everyone ^^ You see the point ? :kawaii:

well, that is culture..... we cant say anything about it.... us outsiders dont understand the nature of a country and all..... we cant judge something just on one side of view.....

indeed... but it's still weird for me... going to asia and being asked to go to a karaoke I would be like: " LOL, no!" XDDD
...except if the girl is cute...

mm B-chan mostly girls go to karaoke with same sex or different sex but i dont think much Asian guys will go there with same sex people only (unless they are gay - or, extremly emo). So it's not really different with outsiders from other countries. That's my view though :bishounen:

or for couples i presume xD, or if your really drunk hehe..with some friends... laugh you socks.. i get the feeling why asian pps like karoake ! :)

no no, karaoke isn't just for girls. Guys go there alot too but they won't go if the group is just all guys. Girls will if their group is all girls though, but guys won't :kirari: does that make sense?
Seems like Ann-chan knows a lot about karaoke bars....she must be a good singer by now http://i237.photobucket.com/albums/ff133/onionethan/onion_Emoticons/053_XD.gif
And can someone rename this thread coz it says karoake bars-it burns my eyes http://i237.photobucket.com/albums/ff133/onionethan/onion_Emoticons/041_.gif

really? i've never seen any guys go to karaoke with their own group that don't have any girls. :hmmm: although i still can understand. Maybe guys just the same with girls, i just don't know yet :kirari: Anyways, i don't go to karaoke alot, but that's one thing we usually do when we gather up friends. And i'm not a good singer :but: my voice isn't high enough for any girl's song :but:
btw, i changed the title's name. I didn't notice it until Anon mentioned. :kaede:
i always see guys go to karaoke with their own group.... XD
but i never go to that place... :but:
