Do any of the bars around here have a karaoke night? If not, going further out into Cambridge/Boston, is there anywhere in particular you might recommend?
Powderhouse is undergoing renovations right now though and they're closed. They just changed ownership and they seem to be giving the place a bit of a polish.
But now I know where Tommy Doyle's is...it just kind of appeared on my new DiningIn menu.
that's cool; I never go there unless I absolutely need to get out of the house and want a drink; its such a pit and not even a decent dive bar. it's be nice to have a good bar right around the block.
I second the Tommy Doyle's in Harvard Sq. Karaoke there is every Wednesday from 10-1 (after Trivia). I'm there every week (at least while I'm in town).
As for the powderhouse, they had Karaoke from 10-1 on Tuesday and Thursday, but I have no idea if they will continue that when they reopen. I used to go every Tuesday. On Thursday's they had a Karaoke Contest which wasn't quite my cup of tea.
If you're looking for an earlier Karaoke, Tommy Doyle's in Kendall Sq (next to CBC) has Karaoke at 8pm. I go there sometimes when I'm free earlier in the day.
For a different quality of karaoke there's also the Courtside on Cambridge Street in Cambridge. I wouldn't recommend them, but I don't know anything else on Friday.
