Karaoke very ok!

Sigh...weekends and Internet do not go hand in hand in my little rented place. Somehow, it always miraculously does not get any connection and I was handicapped for the past 2 days.

Just as well though coz I was out most of the day on Sunday. Went to karaoke with a bunch of colleagues and contrary to the popular feedback about KTVs being bad (read: Kbox and Party World), this one was really, really good! It is called Topone Karaoke and it is situated near Bugis area.

From 11am-6pm, we just pay the price of $16 and we get to sing to our hearts' content and the drinks are free flow. Dirt cheap by local standards. By the way, that is the weekend price. I think weekdays would be cheaper still. Only thing is, we will all be at work :P

They had the latest songs and artists and they even have original MVs (music videos) for English songs, but then again, we only sang one English song so cannot really say too much yet.

All I can say is that the ambience was good and the format is like the Party World in Taiwan (don't think it is related to the Party World in Singapore if not, their layout would not be so bad). They have a reception and they have many floors of KTV rooms (as opposed to one floor area with many rooms).

We are assigned to a certain room at a certain floor and each floor has an overall in-charge who is already there to welcome us and lead us to the room.

Once in the room, there is a whole computer screen for us to select songs etc. We can control the lighting and if we want, there is even the dried ice effect (Hahahaha!) Found it quite funny coz one my colleagues just pressed the button halfway through one of the songs that we were singing and we all gave her stunned looks and burst out laughing. Quite star treatment. Hehehe....

The commendable part is their sound system. Best! There's no two ways about it. I will go back there again.

  4. Haiz...is your telco the one that makes the night very bright? That one, although improved over the years, still quite blah sometimes leh. Time to change to the one that shines during the day or the one that looks like red ang pao packet. Kekeke.... Or is it your phone? I know Dopod quite bad...hmmm maybe I blog about it... .
