TechKaraoke Detroit – July Hottness Edition

The Detroit Chapter of TechKaraoke held its first official event on Friday, July 24th, at the Royal Kubo in Clawson.  The picture above only captures a fraction of the awesomeness that went on that night.  So, enjoy the video!

Important things to mention:

  1. The lighting was crazy, which had an impact on the video quality.
  2. @Farms loves to dance on stage.
  3. MC @HubertGAM knows how to pump up the crowd!
  4. Be sure to check out Icrontic’s great event recap and visit their Flickr page to view some fantastic photos.
  5. We decided to introduce a new element to TechKaraoke.  We are presenting a trophy to the “Best in Show” performer of the night at each event.  Mr. @digitalvision was our first winner and will be tasked with adding something to our awesome trophy.  He will also serve as judge at the next TechKaraoke Detroit event.

To be honest, TechKaraoke is quickly becoming one of my favorite events.  The feedback has been stellar and there have already been numerous inquiries about the next event.

Currently, we plan to hold TechKaraoke Detroit every other month at Royal Kubo.  Our next event will be on a Friday sometime in mid to late September.  To stay informed, be sure to join the TechKaraoke Detroit Facebook Group.

AWESOME UPDATE – 5:23PM 7/31/2009

Our friends at Royal Kubo loved the photos and videos.  In fact, they liked them so much, they plan on throwing in a $30 bar tab for the “Best in Show” winner at the next event!  SWEET!

Introducing TechKaraoke Detroit

It’s official.  Tech Karaoke Detroit is up and running.

In case you were unable to attend our “launch event,” enjoy this lovely video recap.

You can also check out some hilarious photos on Flickr. The event was grunge themed, so I hope that explains the flannel.
