KAREOKE EVENINGS THE EXPO WP WAY

Last night was Kereoke night at EXPO WP, and once again it was packed to capacity. From my point of view and I suppose yours too, a full-house is certainly a very good sign and a good hand at that. Talking about a good hand, lets clap a hearty-one for Kader from 'Miller's Media and Marketing Productions' for his Kareoke initiative and for giving “up-&-cumming” youngsters an opportunity to showcase their talent. The talent in question took the form of an 11 member brass band called "Jazz Addiction" and wow!... could they play Jazz. They had a full compliment of musicians and a young lady with a "Golden Voice" who set the tone for the evening, and what an evening it was indeed.

One could say that EXPO WP was setting a trend for week-end entertainment with lots to eat and drink as usual, with many familiar faces attending, along with some new faces or rather faces I haven't seen before. This kinda makes me sound like an old Kareoke-hollic but that's OK, because I go for the Coffee, and Man!... was the coffee good.? I would be inclined to say lets give Shaun from Craving Coffee a hand as well, for the brilliant coffee he makes which can be perfectly paired by a slice of cake from Ming's. Yes, once again in true Ming's style, a meal voucher was offered as the lucky prize which was in my opinion better than last week's prize, this was a "lunch voucher redeemable at anytime for 4".


The Kareoke performers sang songs from various eras, including some songs in "Español" ... sí, ellos eran bueno. Y quiero decir gracious para todos las personal quen cantan, ustedes magnifico! Now, I view these singers in a renewed light of admiration. Many vendors in the main hall traded untill 20h00 and attended the Karoeke in order to witness first-hand 'this much spoken about Kareoke event'. By the smiles on their faces I could say they were impressed. Luigi once a again cracked a few old-jokes and wooed the crowd with his charismatic MC style who also held a donation/auction for a set of 1000 Watt 6x9 car speakers, generously sponsored by Preggy from Audio Zone. The proceeds of the auction was donated to the up-&-cumming brass band "Jazz Addiction" for their performance. So if you are bored at home, wondering what to do on a Friday evening you owe it to yourself to come visit. There are prizes to be won, people to meet, food to eat and songs to sing. Here, no-one is barred from singing regardless of their age and background because EXPO WP, really is the place to Be!
