Who me?

Out of no where they told me I was going to be next up there doing karaoke. "What? I'm not drunk enough yet." I replied while downing another porter. "You weren't always drunk back when you fronted S.E.MF." Fuck they had me cornered now as they were right. So the host called my name and I downed a shot and chugged the rest of the beer. The crowd clapped as I walked from the table.

As I got up on stage I was told what song I'd been signed up for, David Grey's "Babylon" a song I knew but had never really performed before outside of the shower. "Hi everyone, that table over there put me up here for this song, if I fug it up throw the beers their way, here we go." The music started as I pulled the stool over to sit on. Staring at the screen the words started to dance and all of a sudden I found myself suddenly not needing them. The lyrics were just flowing from me in an eruption of pure karaoke madness. I kicked the stool to the side and walked down into the crowd and started singing with the rest of the crowd in the club. Seems more people knew the lyrics than I thought as the place erupted with people chiming in from everywhere. I'm sweating like a pig but not caring. Hopping back onto the stage to finish the song the crowd quieted down as I finished it off by myself. Hands start to clap and I hear whistles. "Thanks folks, try the beef." I said as handed the mic back over to the host.

"That was actually pretty good" I'm told as I get back to the table. I'm still shaking.
