There's a reason why I named my blog "Big Night." No matter what night of the week with just the right amount of chemistry something Big can happen... and last night was no exception.
After going to the dive bar The Point - My comrades and I set our sights on The Brick for a little Monday Night Kereoke - (cue the Monday Night Football music). We rambled up to the bar for a little liquid courage and proceeded to pick out songs. My lovely associate CJ decided a duet was in order so we picked one of the more common (and favorite) ones - "You've lost that lovin feeling..."(again cue MNF music). After listening to some poor suckers croon out their shitty ballads and terrible Axl Rose renditions it was almost time for CJ and I to take the stage when the guy just before us started singing the SAME SONG. After a Korean War Special (can of Hamms, shot of Jim Beam, and a cigarette) we said screw it we'll sing the song again but do a better job of it. Boy was that fun... I started taking off my clothes just to get someone to even look our way. If not for our comrades I think the jukebox was the loudest thing going.
Now what turns this evening into a BIG NIGHT is when Matt and Kyle get on stage soon after to sing Stevie Nicks's Gypsy. Kyle in trash bags and Matt in a Santa outfit start singing and I decide to join them (with clothes on). If you remember the video of Gypsy, Nicks starts twirling around in a field. Well Kyle starts twirling on stage and ripping down the lights, tinsel, curtains - you name it. It was all coming down until the lesbian bouncer, bartender, and Kereoke controller run on stage and kick us off. Apparently since I wasn't in costume they didn't consider me apart of the new Fleetwood Mac and kicked those guys out of the bar. I on the other hand ordered another Hamms, closed my tab, gathered my comrades and left the bar. Unfortunately the lesbian bouncer caught me with the can of Hamms on the sidewalk as we were walking to the car.. Damn! The can was still half full...
Who knows what will happen since my horoscope says "Tonight: Don't feel like you need to race home" But I'm already home....

Correction: "You've lost that lovin' feelin'." was the double whammy song of the night. Unchained Melody is in Ghost during the potter scene... you filthy animal.
Thanks for the liquid courages!
Good catch! I was mesmerized last night after all the Korean War Specials.
