Bobby karaoke dot com scored a major coup in the karaoke blogging world today by now ranking as the 6,975,472 most trafficked site on ther Internet, according to the mostly innacurate Alexa.
At a press conference today in downtown Venice beach, where Bobby K and his family were gathered, BK spoke through tears as he candidly discussed his “only-in-America” struggle with typing and his family’s support of his goal in karaoke-blogging.
Today is a milestone for karaokers everywhere folks. Let’s head on down to Orchid karaoke in koreatown tonight to celebrate.
I’ll see you there (though you’ll be upside down because I’ll be looking at you while I’m doing a keg stand).
Hall of Famer Suresh Joachim and Guiness Book’s number 1 Canadian record holder is going for broke in his attempt to break the world record for the longest stretch of karaoke singing … bringing the total to 50 hours.
That is difficult. What is even more difficult is doing it with grace and dignity. My friend Stacy tried it once, but she had to back out at hour 38 because she was 9 months pregnant at the time and the little guy decided to be born.
Such is life, Stacy. Such is life.

I know what you’re thinking… “Great, just what we need. Another Sims.” And you’re right.
Back before Electronic Arts controlled The Sims franchise, it was just little Maxis, and they developed good software about building cities. Now they have unleashed The Sims on Stage karaoke site. And as a twice-daily singer of karaoke, this sickens me.
Get off the couch and into the pubs, folks. The REAL singing is just down the street at your local karaoke bar or VFW hall. It seems Robert Putnam’s theory on civic engagement even applies to the communication art form of karaoke. A collective withdraw of talented singers… simply looking to tune out, drop acid, and sing to their webcams.
Another sad day. I hate you Electronic Arts.
Any thoughts?
