Karaoke scores at The Zone! Karaoke gana en La Zona!

If you haven't yet experienced karaoke Friday nights at The Zone (#36 Umaran), why not plan on this week? The first turn at the mic is at 9pm, but happy hour 2x1 ends at 8pm. Hmmm, what to do?

Si aún no has experimentado karaoke viernes por la noche en La Zona (# 36 Umaran), ¿por qué no piensas en esta semana? El primer turno en el micrófono es a las 9 pm, pero la hora feliz con 2x1 termina a las 8 pm. ¿Qué hacer?

Well, some folks have made it a habit to come early (say, just before 8:00) to browse the extensive songbooks and get their requests in while ordering burgers, wings or hot dogs and a beer (make that two...for the price of one!). The Zone also offers house cocktails for only 50 pesos all night long.

Bueno, algunas personas han hecho el hábito de llegar temprano (por ejemplo, justo antes de las 8:00) para buscar los amplios libros de canciónes y dar sus peticiones, y en el mismo tiempo que ordenaba hamburguesas, alas, o hotdogs y una cerveza (disculpa, ¡dos cervezas! ... por el precio de uno). La Zona también ofrece cócteles de la casa por sólo 50 pesos durante toda la noche.

In the casual, no-pressure atmosphere that Brian Cuffney has created at The Zone, you can try songs you love even if you've never done the karaoke thing before. We'll help you! (Some of our selections offer con voz versions—so it's just like singing with the radio except instead of the steering wheel, you will be holding a microphone.)

En  la atmósfera informal y libre de presión que el dueño Brian Cuffney ha creado en La Zona, puedes probar toda las canciones que quieres, incluso si nunca has hecho lo de karaoke antes. Vamos a ayudarte! (Algunas de nuestras selecciones de ofrecer versiones "con voz"—por lo que es igual que cantar con la radio.)

Thanks to all of our "regulars" and huge applause for those who've come to try karaoke for the first time. As my Minnesota friend Margaret and her pal Hannah and I proved last week, We Are A Family at The Zone, and it doesn't take skill to have a great time singing!!!

Gracias a todos nuestros habituales, y un aplauso enorme para aquellos que han venido a tratar de karaoke por primera vez. Mexicanos y extranjeros iguales, somos una familia en La Zona, y si alguien no tiene talento grande, no nos importa porque el punto de la noche es que él o ella puede disfrutar de cantando!!!

  1. Unfortunately, The Zone (La Zona) has closed its doors, demonstrating once again the difficulty of operating a restaurant more than two blocks away from the Jardín in a tourist town. However, karaoke fans, we still have great venues in which to stretch our lungs! Wednesday nights at La Galería is top-of-the-list because I'm the host, duh! You can also enjoy karaoke Tue-Wed-Thu at Mama Mia, Wed-Thu-Fri-Sat at Muro, Thu at Nivel Cero, or Fri-Sat at La Vecindad. There are special karaoke events, too, like the Karaoke Beerfest 2011, May 28 at Shelter Theater! Of course you can always organize a private party and I will be happy to host it with you. Vamos a cantar!
