*Opens doors and winks at Shay*

Let's get this party started! Oh yeah....

*steps up on stage and begins to sing*

I'm comin' up so you better get this party started
I'm comin' up so you better get this party started

Get this party started on a Saturday night
Everybody's waitin for me to arrive
Sendin' out the message to all of my friends
We'll be lookin flashy in my Mercedes Benz
I got lotsa style, check my gold diamond rings
I can go for miles if you know what I mean
I'm comin' up so you better get this party started
I'm comin' up so you better get this party started

Pumpin up the volume, breakin down to the beat
Cruisin' through the west side
We'll be checkin' the scene
Boulevard is freakin' as I'm comin' up fast
I'll be burnin' rubber, you'll be kissin' my ass
Pull up to the bumper, get out of the car
License plate says Stunner #1 Superstar

I'm comin' up so you better get this party started
I'm comin' up so you better get this party started
Get this party started

Makin my connection as I enter the room
Everybody's chillin as I set up the groove
Pumpin' up the volume with this brand new beat
Everybody's dancin and their dancin for me
I'm your operator, you can call anytime
I'll be your connection to the party line

I'm comin' up so you better get this party started
I'm comin' up so you better get this party started
I'm comin' up so you better get this party started
I'm comin' up so you better get this party started
Get this party started
Get this party started right now
Get this party started
Get this party started
Get this party started right now

Allison walks in and waves at Parrrrtay who is STILL singing!

Ooooo Shay you make me feel so proud to be your friend!

Kick it up a notch!

Left a good job in the city,
Workin' for The Man ev'ry night and day,
bet I never lost one minute of sleepin',
Worryin' 'bout the way things might have been.

Big wheel keep on turnin',
Proud Mary keep on burnin',
Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river.

Cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis,
Pumped a lot of 'pane down in New Orleans,
But I never saw the good side of the city,
'Till I hitched a ride on a river boat queen.

Big wheel keep on turnin',
Proud Mary keep on burnin',
Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river.
Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river.

If you come down to the river,
Bet you gonna find some people who live.
You don't have to worry 'cause you have no money,
People on the river are happy to give.

Big wheel keep on turnin',
Proud Mary keep on burnin',
Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river.
Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river.
Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river.
Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river

*waves at Bamada throws JD a kiss as I exit the stage*

"Nice place you have here! Love the spot lights"

Come on up, Mister Almonaster, you know you just can't resist....

Too much love drives a grrl insane
You broke my will, but what a thrill
Goodness, gracious, great balls of fire!!

You came along and moooooved me honey
I've changed my mind, this love is fine
Goodness, gracious, great balls of fire!!

Kiss me baby, wooo feels good
Hold me baby, wellllll I want to love you like a lover should
Your fine, sooo kind
I want to tell this world that your mine mine mine mine

And we can act like we come from out of this world
Leave the real one far behind

Everything out of control

Your mama don't dance and your daddy don't Rock and roll
Your mama don't dance and your daddy don't Rock and roll
When evening comes around and it's time to go to town
Where do you go? To rock and roll.

Well, the old folks say that ya gotta end your date by ten.
If you're out on a date and you bring it home late it's a sin.
You know there's no excusin'. You know you're gonna lose and never win.
I'll play it again.

And it's all because
Your mama don't dance and your daddy don't Rock and roll
Your mama don't dance and your daddy don't Rock and roll
When evening comes around and it's time to go to town
Where do you go? To rock and roll.

You pull into a drive-in and find a place to park.
You hop into the backseat where you know it's nice and dark
You're just about to move in, thinkin' it's a breeze.
There's a light in your eyes and then a guy says,
"Out of the car, Longhair."
"Louise. You're comin' with me and no more movies."

And it's all because
Your mama don't dance and your daddy don't Rock and roll
Your mama don't dance and your daddy don't Rock and roll
When evening comes around and it's time to go to town
Where do you go? To rock and roll.
Where do you go? To rock and roll.
Where do you go? To rock and roll

Woooo Almo! :clapping: :clap: :clapping:

*gives Shay a big kiss on the cheek*

*hands out the inflatable drink hats.... FLats we call em*

Dance and you never spiil a drop of your drink!

I woke up this morning with a buzz rollin' 'round in my brain
I haven't been drinkin' but it feels pretty good just the same
It must be contagious-looks like it's goin' around
It's cool once you catch it-you can't keep your feet on the ground

C'mon, c'mon-let's get something started
C'mon, c'mon-let's start something now

We're gonna rock this region
We're gonna rock this region
Every brown-eyed boy-every blue-eyed girl
Gotta really go psycho-give it a whirl
We're gonna rock this region
Right out of this world
Ah-oo-na-na-na...

From Liarg to Jaded Light, Parrrrtay and Almonaster, too
Or Judith Gap, no matter where you live-this buzz is for you

C'mon, c'mon-let's get something started
C'mon, c'mon-let's start something now

We're gonna rock this region
We're gonna rock this region
Every brown-eyed boy-every blue-eyed girl
Gotta really go psycho-give it a whirl
We're gonna rock this region
Right out of this world
Ah-oo-na-na-na...

Ah-oo-na-na-na...

We're pluggin' in the power
Crankin' up the sound
It's comin' your direction
It's headin' to your town
We're kickin' up dust
Blowin' off steam
Let's get nuts now
Everybody scream

We're gonna rock this region
We're gonna rock this region
Every brown-eyed boy-every blue-eyed girl
Gotta really go psycho-give it a whirl
We're gonna rock this region
Right out of this world
Ah-oo-na-na-na...

:clap: JD :clap:

*starts pouring drinks to go with them flats!*

Whiskey, gin and brandy
With a glass I'm pretty handy
I'm trying to walk a straight line
On sour mash and cheap wine
So join me for a drink boys
We're gonna make a big noise

So don't worry about tomorrow
Take it today
Forget about the cheque
We'll get hell to pay

Have a drink on me

Dizzy, drunk and fightin'
On tequila white lightnin'
My glass is getting shorter
On whiskey, ice and water
So come on and have a good time
And get blinded out of your mind

So don't worry about tomorrow
Take it today
Forget about the cheque
We'll get hell to pay

Have a drink on me
(Get stoned)

Gonna roll around
Gonna hit the ground
Take another swing
Have another drink
Gonna drink it dry
Gonna get me high
Come on all the boys
Make a noise

Have a drink on me

Fill and wear those FLats with pride people! Don't be afraid to really get down....

Good grief, I'm beggining to think I know no jam songs!

*Runs down and gives JG a big hug*

You can take it downtown if you like. We're easy around here! :lol:

You asked for it, Shay.


When you're alone and life is making you lonely
You can always go - downtown
When you've got worries, all the noise and the hurry
Seems to help, I know - downtown
Just listen to the music of the traffic in the city
Linger on the sidewalk where the neon signs are pretty
How can you lose?

The lights are much brighter there
You can forget all your troubles, forget all your cares
So go downtown, things'll be great when you're
Downtown - no finer place, for sure
Downtown - everything's waiting for you

Don't hang around and let your problems surround you
There are movie shows - downtown
Maybe you know some little places to go to
Where they never close - downtown
Just listen to the rhythm of a gentle bossa nova
You'll be dancing with him too before the night is over
Happy again

The lights are much brighter there
You can forget all your troubles, forget all your cares
So go downtown, where all the lights are bright
Downtown - waiting for you tonight
Downtown - you're gonna be all right now

------ instrumental break ------

And you may find somebody kind to help and understand you
Someone who is just like you and needs a gentle hand to
Guide them along

So maybe I'll see you there
We can forget all our troubles, forget all our cares
So go downtown, things'll be great when you're
Downtown - don't wait a minute more
Downtown - everything's waiting for you

Downtown, downtown, downtown, downtown ...

Met her in Austin
she was totally awesome
She had a Western drawl
She was pure Texas Y'all

She said her name was Eileen
She hailed from Abilene
She'd been know to drink a few
and show off her Texas tattoo.

CH: And you'd want to hold on to Dallas
Spend the night in San Antone
Reach Amarillo by morning
All the cowboys want a view of her Texas tattoo.

She'd call your bluff,
that lady was tough
Yeah, she'd slap you silly
if you didn't like Willie.

She had eyes
blue as that Texas sky
And when tequila's what she ordered
you might make it to the border.


(it's a silly song, let's not have any more of that! Somebody put on some Hole (Courtney Love) that I can sing along with!)

Very silly indeed, JG, YOu gotta way with songs.

OK.... for Shay since she has to go for the night....

*brings down the lights just a tad*

What would you think if I sang out of tune
Would you stand up and walk out on me
Lend me your ears and I'll sing you a song
And I'll try not o sing out of key

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends
Mm, I get high with a little help from my friends
Mm, gonna try with a little help from my friends

What do I do when my love is away
Does it worry you to be alone?
How do I feel by the end of the day
Are you sad because you're on your own

No, I get by with a little help from my friends
Mm, I get high with a little help from my friends
Mm, gonna try with a little help from my friends

Do you need anybody
I need somebody to love
Could it be anybody
I want somebody to love

Would you believe in a love at first sight
Yes, I'm certain that it happens all the time
What do you see when you turn out the light
I can't tell you but I know it's mine

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends
Mm, I get high with a little help from my friends
Mm, gonna try with a little help from my friends

Do you need anybody
I just need someone to love
Could it be anybody
I want somebody to love

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends
Mm, I get high with a little help from my friends
Mm, gonna try with a little help from my friends
Yes I get by with a little help from my friends
With a little help from my friends

Sleepless nights don't bother me at all
If dawn comes I won't worry
Something deep inside keeps me awake
wish that you were here right beside me
recall when I was very young
and could not go to sleep
My father sang me songs to make me tired
But memories don't make it easier so
Goodnight
wherever you are sleeping
and I hope that if you dream
you dream of me.
Oh goodnight
wherever you are sleeping
and I hope that if you dream
you dream of me
Now I lie awake and it's no fun
tossing and turning
I'd call you if it weren't so very late
but telephones don't bring you close to me
I recall the times we stayed up late
Wide awake but still dreaming
There was nothing on this earth could make me tired
but memories don't make it easier so
Goodnight
wherever you are sleeping
and I hope that if you dream
you dream of me.
Goodnight
wherever you are sleeping
and I hope that if you dream
you dream of me

*wanders in wearing a slightly tight black skirt (not tight enough to be immodest) and a black T-shirt*

*buys some punch*

Yay, KD!

Give us a song. :fonz:

Sure. Hold my punch?

*gets up on stage*

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

I think I did it again
I made you believe we're more than just friends
Oh baby
It might seem like a crush
But it doesn't mean that I'm serious
'Cause to lose all my senses
That is just so typically me
Oh baby, baby

Chorus:
Oops!...I did it again
I played with your heart, got lost in the game
Oh baby, baby
Oops!...You think I'm in love
That I'm sent from above
I'm not that innocent

You see my problem is this
I'm dreaming away
Wishing that heroes, they truly exist
I cry, watching the days
Can't you see I'm a fool in so many ways
But to lose all my senses
That is just so typically me
Baby, oh

Chorus:
Oops!...I did it again
I played with your heart, got lost in the game
Oh baby, baby
Oops!...You think I'm in love
That I'm sent from above
I'm not that innocent

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

"All aboard"
"Britney, before you go, there's something I want you to have"
"Oh, it's beautiful, but wait a minute, isn't this...?"
"Yeah, yes it is"
"But I thought the old lady dropped it into the ocean in the end"
"Well baby, I went down and got it for you"
"Oh, you shouldn't have"

Oops!...I did it again to your heart
Got lost in this game, oh baby
Oops!...You think that I'm sent from above
I'm not that innocent

Chorus:
Oops!...I did it again
I played with your heart, got lost in the game
Oh baby, baby
Oops!...You think I'm in love
That I'm sent from above
I'm not that innocent

Chorus:
Oops!...I did it again
I played with your heart, got lost in the game
Oh baby, baby
Oops!...You think I'm in love
That I'm sent from above
I'm not that innocent

*Walks back in from her office and gives KD a big hug*

KD, punch is on the house tonight, so have fun! *whispers* you know we serve seven types of WiLd Up AND we have inflatable drink hats (FLats) so you can dance and drink at the same time....

*hands KD and official JAM FLat signed by Britney*

Been keeping that behind the bar just for you. ;)

* Almonaster re-appears on stage...*

Got a black magic woman
I got a black magic woman
Yes, I got a black magic woman
Got me so blind I can't see
But she's a black magic woman
And she's tryin' to make a devil out of me

Don't turn your back on me baby
Don't turn your back on me baby
Yes, don't turn your back on me baby
You're messin' around with your tricks
Don't turn your back on me baby
'Cause you might just break up my magic stick

break:

You got your spell on me baby
You got your spell on me baby
Yes, you got your spell on me baby
You're turning my heart into stone
I need you so bad, magic woman, I can't leave you alone


Yes, I need you so bad
Well, I need you darling
Yeah, I need you darling
Yes, I want you love me
I want you love me
Whoa, I want you love me, ah
Whoh, yeah
Oh, whoa, baby
Yes, I need your love
Oh, I need your love so bad
I want you love me

Allison gets on stage and starts dancing and singing. Occasionally she comes down and sings amidst the crowd.

Ice ice baby
Ice ice baby
All right stop collaborate and listen
Ice is back with my brand new invention
Something grabs a hold of me tightly
Flow like a harpoon daily and nightly
Will it ever stop yo I don't know
Turn off the lights and I'll glow
To the extreme I rock a mic like a vandal
Light up a stage and wax a chump like a candle
Dance go rush to the speaker that booms
I'm killing your brain like a poisonous mushroom
Deadly when I play a dope melody
Anything less than the best is a felony
Love it or leave it you better gain weight
You better hit bull's eye the kid don't play
If there was a problem yo I'll solve it
Check out the hook while my DJ revolves it

CHORUS
Ice ice baby vanillla (x4)

Now that the party is jumping
With the bass kicked in and the vegas are pumpin'
Quick to the point to the point no faking
I'm cooking MC's like a pound of bacon
Burning them if you ain't quick and nimble
I go crazy when I hear a cymbal
And a hi-hat with a souped up tempo
I'm on a roll and it's time to go solo
Rollin' in my 5.0
With my rag-top down so my hair can blow
The girlies on standby waving just to say hi
Did you stop no I just drove by
Kept on pursuing to the next stop
I busted a left and I'm heading to the next block
The block was dead
Yo so I continued to A1A Beachfront Avenue
Girls were hot wearing less than bikinis
Rockman lovers driving Lamborghinis
Jealous 'cause I'm out getting mine
Shay with a guage and Vanilla with a nine
Reading for the chumps on the wall
The chumps acting ill because they're so full of eight balls
Gunshots rang out like a bell
I grabbed my nine all I heard were shells
Falling on the concrete real fast
Jumped in my car slammed on the gas
Bumpet to bumper the avenue's packed
I'm trying to get away before the jackers jack
Police on the scene you know what I mean
They passed me up confronted all the dope fiends
If there was a problem yo I'll solve it
Check out the hook while my DJ revolves it

REPEAT CHORUS

Take heed 'cause I'm a lyrical poet
Miami's on the scene just in case you didn't know it
My town that created all the bass sound
Enough to shake and kick holes in the ground
'Cause my style's like a chemical spill
Feasible rhymes that you can vision and feel
Conducted and formed
This is a hell of a concept
We make it hype and you want to step with this
Shay plays on the fade slice like a ninja
Cut like a razor blade so fast other DJs say damn
If my rhyme was a drug I'd sell it by the gram
Keep my composure when it's time to get loose
Magnetized by the mic while I kick my juice
If there was a problem yo I'll solve it
Check out the hook while Shay revolves it

Ice ice baby vanilla
Ice ice baby (oh-oh) vanilla
Ice ice baby vanilla
Ice ice baby vanilla ice
Yo man let's get out of here
Word to your mother
Ice ice baby too cold
Ice ice baby too cold too cold (x2)
Ice ice baby

Wooo! Allison! Yeah.... :clapping:

*Takes Almo's arm as he heads off the stage.*

Wow, Almo, never figured you for the torch song type. So nice... very nice.

I had such a good weekend and all the time this Lenny Kravitz song was going through my head. Hope you don't mind.

MMm....hhhmmmm....
Let's wander slowly through the fields
Slowly slowly through the fields
I touch the leaves that touch the sky
Just you and I through fields of joy
All trouble slowly fades away
Slowly slowly fades away
I hold your hand inside my hand
Across the land through fields of joy
The sound of music that we hear
The blend of colors in the air
All cities, mountains disappear from view
All truth and beauty near to me and you
With you through the fields
With you through the fields
With you through the fields
The fields of joy

Let's wander slowly through the fields
Slowly slowly through the fields
I know our love will never die
Just you and I
Through fields of joy
Through fields of joy

oh yeah....mmmmmm.....

Well, I think that goes nicely with this one...


You'll remember me when the west wind moves
Upon the fields of barley
You'll forget the sun in his jealous sky
As we walk in the fields of gold

So she took her love
For to gaze awhile
Upon the fields of barley
In his arms she fell as her hair came down
Among the fields of gold

Will you stay with me, will you be my love
Among the fields of barley
We'll forget the sun in his jealous sky
As we lie in the fields of gold

See the west wind move like a lover so
Upon the fields of barley
Feel her body rise when you kiss her mouth
Among the fields of gold
I never made promises lightly
And there have been some that I've broken
But I swear in the days still left
We'll walk in the fields of gold
We'll walk in the fields of gold

Many years have passed since those summer days
Among the fields of barley
See the children run as the sun goes down
Among the fields of gold
You'll remember me when the west wind moves
Upon the fields of barley
You can tell the sun in his jealous sky
When we walked in the fields of gold
When we walked in the fields of gold
When we walked in the fields of gold

Definitely.

String cheese is the natural follow up to that one, methinks....

Gonna pick myself up off the ground
When that old feeling comes around again
I’ve had enough of feeling down
There’s something I’ve lost that must be found again


Sometimes it seems like such a hard life
But there’s good times around the bend
There rollercoaster’s got to roll to the bottom
If you want to climb to the top again


Driving down the highway in the rain
Look out of my window and see that southbound train
It’s headlights still shining in my brain
Stayed right alongside me just to ease my pain


Sometimes it seems like such a hard life
But there’s good times around the bend
There rollercoaster’s got to roll to the bottom
If you want to climb to the top again


Well the snow is gone and the springtime’s here
And the rivers song is buzzing in my ears
Sit and watch the treetops sway
Here comes a breeze to blow my cares away


Sometimes it seems like such a hard life
But there’s good times around the bend
There rollercoaster’s got to roll to the bottom
If you want to climb to the top again

Hmm. I think I'm all out of repertoire for now. What say we go grab a seat at the bar?

*Fanning herself*

You got it, 'Mo. On the house tonight, what'll ya have?

A WiLd Up with a nice warming dose of Southern Comfort, please.

Ahhhh... the house special. Nice combo and it allows you to keep your options open.

I'll have the same, hold the Comfort. ;)

OK, 'Mo, tell me again how you happened to stumble upon that kareoke bar in Kyoto... what was it called?

Kaneiri, if I remember right. I was heading back from Gion corner, and I got a bit off track. All of a sudden, there were a whole crowd cam spilling out of a side street, so I went to see what the excitement was. Turned out to be ex-pat central. We stayed up singing until about 3 am, when the barman finally kicked us out. Unfortunately I had to head off the next day. I'd have a job finding the place again, even if it still exists.

:lol: Love that story. We should try to find that place some time. Or find a new one someplace else.

Sort of why I opened this place, to tell you the truth. Never know what sort of poet, playwright or playboy might wander in and give us a tune or a tale.

Did I show you my new photos?

No I didn't. What have you got?

Would you believe fungus, lichens and moss?.......
