Saturday night is Karaoke night at The Half Moon High Wycombe. Am I nuts talking the weekly road trip up the M25 and M40  in my Hyundai for Karaoke? Well maybe, but its worth it! Paul and Dawn put on a great night entertainment for us punters, The locals are freindly and theres a chance to win cash with the Shoot for the Moon Lotto with Landlord/Draw Master Alan who also sings as well.
 
I don't claim to have a good voice but thats not the point of Karaoke. The idea is to get up there and have fun. I'm now known as "Party Jon" beause I sing the songs that get the crowd going, Yes I sing stuff like Billie Pipers "Beacuase We Want to" and a few Beatles numbers. I am most well known for my attempts at Witch Doctor. Yes the old classic covered by the Cartoons in 1998 and now brought back to life by yours truely!
 For your ears only and your  pleasure I have decided to add a recording of me in all my singing glory. Sorry about the crackly sound but   it was recorded on my I phone  (which was in my pocket)using Pocket Wave Pad. (free from the App Store!)
 
Enjoy and be kind with your coments :-)
