Extreme karaoke

This week, I came across a few news stories about taking karaoke to the extreme.

How much would you pay to sing karaoke?

I know a little place in Madison called the Karaoke Kid. Little place. But they have karaoke every night, so how cool is that? The thing is, you have to pay a buck to sing. A buck? Not that bad, really. An interesting business model, but, they seem to have made it work.

On the other end of the scale and the other end of the world, you can pay $3500 for the privilege of singing with U2 (and if that's not enough) the premier of New South Wales (Australia),  Kristina Keneally. I'm thinking about that one.



How about getting paid to sing karaoke?

A phone technician from Albuquerque named Edward Pimentel won the World Karaoke Championship in Moscow and walked away with one million Russian dumplings. Wow.
 
How about another great place to sing?
Like Times Square??
