My friend Dustin came in from Louisiana on Saturday and last night we went out to find something to do. Usually this meant either ending the night in some type of unlawful activity and excaping the Five-O, or the both of us arguing over something completely stupid and not talking for a couple days. But in this sense, neither was the case. After paying his g'ma a visit at the hospital and enjoying some quality family time telling storys and making fun of each other, we decided to get some food. So as we cruise the streets of Farmington NM in search of something edible, we find ourselves in the mall Sport's Bar and Grill. Nothing to special happens.... until the lights are dimmed.....and an announcer steps up to the mic and announces that the Wednesday night karaoke bash has now begun. 3 oldie songs pass, all sung by the DJ and he begins his 4th. Nothing too hilarious up till this point. But at the beginning of his 4th song he announces that get is going to switch gears and try some gospel music. Oh, no! is right. He turned up the volume and bellowed out a 'Sister Act' special... Oh Happy Day. My first thought, which I promptly shared with my friend, was, "He's singing a Gospel song IN A BAR !!!" That made my day. Afterward, as we were going home, we had our own karaoke jam session with Sum 41, Onyx, and Skee Lo. Once again, we were the Kings of the Road.
