what is the best karaoke bar for you and why?

personally, it's music 21!! wipee! lots and lots of japanese songs!

music 21 is my NCF barkada's first choice for gimmicks

Its definitely Music 21 for me!

Haven't heard about the others kasi...

Bro, you need to go out more and do some karaoke hopping. Hehe. But I agree, M21 is really the best.

I'll take note of that, thanks!

Got to admit though, that I'm no karaoke-maniac.

You guys might want to take advantage of Music21's barkada/party packages. For P3,300, you get to use a karaoke room for 2 hours and choose among different sets of food good for 10 persons. The food packages also come with 2 rounds of drinks. Sulit na sulit talaga. That's the most expensive package. They have packages less than P3,000.

Music21 kc yun pa lng napuntahan ko

hindi po ito karaoke bar. i can only afford Power Station's Music Lounge... P10/song lang. ok na kami ng friends ko dun, tight budget (saka na sa pricey places pag may high-paying job na ne ) more or less 150 lang gastos namin in 1hr. sa pagpili and paghanap palang ng song ang tagal na namin ^_^" lalo na pag yung hahanapin mo eh parehong kanji ang title and name ng singer x_x

and in fairness naman sa kanila.. ok ang list nila. most of the popular songs and artists meron sila, tough i think kailangan na nilang mag-update kc mroe or less 10songs lang yung nakita kong songs na na-released this year

You mean sa Power Station, Kanji ang title ng kanta at singer sa list nila? Sa ibang karaoke bars ganun din kaya?

 

yup, yung ktv booths sa Power Station(arcade), and yup,  naka-kanji yung japanese names and titles.. pati yung subs kanji din. lol, kaya nga yung pinili naming songs eh yung mejo kabisado namin ^^'

Saan sila may branch(es)?...

yes, same question, saan saan meron power station? meron din bang food/drinks dun? may limit ba kung gaano ka katagal pwedeng gumamit dun?

I've been to IO and Music21, the Japanese songs are in Japanese (Hiragana, Katakana and Kanji). The titles in the song book and the computer are also in Japanese so you have to know how to read Hiragana for you to find a song/artist name. For example, if you want to find 'Gackt', you have to jump to the 'ka' section. 'Glay' is under 'ku', 'Larc' in under 'ra' and 'Luna Sea' under 'ru'

If a song title is originally in English (maybe However, Soul Love or Last Song), this will be written in Romaji, but you will have to find it using Hiragana.

That's bothersome... Especially for those uninitiated.  But what the heck!  As they say, "When in Rome, do as the Romans do". ;)

 

maneko.. thanks sa info ^^

sa Power Station naman madali lang compared cguro sa ktv bars, written na yung non-japanese names and titles as is... L'Arc~en~Ciel Gackt Asian Kungfu Generation Do as Infinity Crystal Kay and the likes basta sa Japanese names and songs title in kanji talaga.

amusement center ang Power Station, meron lang clang section na Music Lounge. hindi yata pwede magpasok ng food and drinks. nakapagpasok ako ng bottled water at hindi naman ako sinita.. so malamang ok lang yun. hindi ko naman napansin kung may nakalagay na food and drinks not allowed

ang alam kong branches nila... MOA, ShangrilaMall, Podium and Eastwood.
MOA - English Tagalog Chinese Indian Vietnamese .. kagagaling lang namin dun kahapon, badtrip walang Japanese. yung lang pinunta namin dun tapos wala pala.. tsk tsk.
Eastwood - English Tagalog Chinese Korean Japanese and other language. ok dun! malaki ang booth, can fit 10 persons pero ndi ko alam kung ilan ang limit nila.
havent tried sa Shang and Podium branches.
