Christchurch Idol, Karaoke Review

One of the things I love is karaoke, so a couple of nights? weeks? ago I went with my friends to Christchurch Idol, a karaoke place in town. HERE IS MY SERIOUS AND NON WITTY LIST REVIEW.

Good Points:
It's karaoke.
The rooms are good sized and private
They have a good bar
Despite the Chinese and Korean songs, there still is a pretty decent English selection.
Instead of showing a music video of the song, they show random pictures of unsuspecting Chinese bathers, crustaceans and the autumn.
It has some dance lighting.
The interiors are lovely.

Bad Points:
The mics aren't that great.
Most(?) of the songs are in chinese or korean.
Despite the largeish room, there is not alot of dance space.
The backing track sounds like a bad MIDI. A BAD midi.
The rating for your performance is highly dubious. A pathetic 67 for Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds? I am so sure I would have scored higher on a program like Singstar.
Plus on Singstar you can track your progress.

Overall, it's a decent place if you are going for laughs with friends, but for serious karaokers-like yours truly, I say the slightly primative Singstar is the one for you! It's relativley cheap but also awesome.

Awesome.
