Videoke Time!



Filipinos really love karaoke, it is a form of interactive entertainment in which one sings along with recorded music using a microphone. Now there is the videoke microphones. These microphones have built in chips that contains the songs and lyrics. All you have to do is connect it to a television and viola, you can sing your favourite songs while drinking beer. The most known brand of these microphones were manufactured or distributed by Entertech, They call their product Magic Sing-along microphone and it cost around 300 USD with 2000 built in songs. Plus add another 75 to 100 bucks for the additional chips.

I do not sing well but I like to sing. So when I came back to the Philippines last July, I bought one for only 200 USD and it included a free chip. It is a really very good bargain. Today we had a chance to use it. My brother and sister in law are here for the holidays and after the trip to downtown Toronto we relaxed and sang. Thanks to the beer we had our singing sounded like professionals. I am not saying it improved our singing but I guess that’s what it does to your hearing when you are drunk. Ha ha ha.
