All Hail Baby Ketten!

I can't keep my love a secret anymore. I can't hide my love away! Among the many things that make Portland awesome, there is a now a karaoke organization called Baby Ketten that is operating three nights a week, and rocking the best book in the business! You think your karaoke has a good book? Seriously- suck it. Have you ever wanted to sing Siouxsie Sioux's apocalyptic lullaby, Metal Postcard? Probably not, but I did, and I sang it at Baby Ketten! Bauhaus' Kick in the Eye? Think you can keep an audience through Pulp's bump and grind classic, This is Hardcore? Find out! Do you think singing Laid by James will get a singalong going? Can you handle Tori Amos' Crucify? Do you think you can step to The Strangler's Peaches? Holy crap, this is a great book, and the crowd and KJ's are all wonderful people. You can talk to them on their Facebook event page: Baby Ketten

Tuesday Ketten: At Bodacious Classics (B.C.'s!) on Powell, starting around 9
Wednesday and Sunday Ketten: at the Dunes at 9, 1909 NE MLK, with your wonderful barman Mark, and a fog machine and a great sound system!
