Karaoke Night

We always have our farewell/hello dinner at Winnies in Queenstown, but this time it happened to be karaoke night. The song books were passed around the table and my rendition of Whitney Houstons "I Wanna Dance with Somebody" is nowhere near it's public debut. My voice resonates so much, I could knock down two out of three of the little pigs' homes and 99% of the time I am lip-syncing the hymnals in church.

The MC sang her heart out to encourage all to participate and finally she had a willing volunteer singing Rod Stewart's "Maggie May." He was amazing and had the entire audience's attention. Our group closed the books and sank into their chairs when we noticed the whispers of our Irish passengers. This drunk Irishman wailing out "Maggie I wish I never seen your face" is a well-known Irish popstar that won "You're a Star," the Irish version of American Idol, a few years back.
