    • Thanks Duncan! There’s always some tension in choosing where to go to next, between returning to places that I love (such as London) and trying to see as many new locales as I can. It may take a year or two, but I will definitely be back to the U.K. as soon as I can!

  2. I now have a new goal: to sing karaoke in a different country. I sang “The Man that Got Away” over the PA system on a tour bus when in Italy, but that might not count.

    • Go for it, Yinzerella! In almost any foreign land that you travel to, karaoke is pretty easy to find these days.

      • Except, probably, for Vatican City. Somehow, I don’t think there’s going to be an active bar/club scene there. 🙂

    Love it! I was on work traveling in France when I had a chance to sing Karaoke, I blew ’em away. It also broke the ice considerably. I’ve had a band in the States for a while, and all those old songs were my musical bread and butter growing up so showing off on the mike felt good and the people really appreciated it. After the whole experience I started thinking I’d like to travel Europe singing karaoke at different places and meeting music lovers…now I see you’ve taken this to a whole new level. I am soooooo impressed. Kudos to you. I’ll have to keep checking in as I start planning my own karaoke adventure “World-Wide”.
