Caritas is Open!

[karaoke-lizard.livejournal.com]

The doors are open and the velvet rope has been pushed aside.

The bar and the lounge await you and the Zombie Band have tuned their instruments.

And outside the establishment is sign reading


TONIGHT!

GOB! Master of Illusions!


Lorne of course takes the stage first and sings his opening number.

"Come on in folks. It's Friday night and it's time to party and sing!"

Ladies and Gentlemen... The Amazing GOB!

As the Zombie Band began to play Europe's "The Final Countdown," GOB Bluth, Master of Illusions, stepped onto the stage. He took several strides to his right, shook his hands, and began pulling a string of colored handkerchiefs out of his right sleeve. He stopped suddenly, turned to his left, and pulled the same type of chain out of his left sleeve, but in a flashier manner.

He turned and walked to the front of the stage and stopped at the edge. While the music continued to blare, he cupped his hands together and released a dove in a blast of smoke.

The dove fell into the audience, dead. It had probably been that way since shortly after GOB shoved it in his sleeve an hour ago.

Before the dove could bounce, GOB walked back toward the center of the stage to meet his Lovely Assistant...

Kawalsky sat down and watched the show in awe. Had he not gone into the military the first time around, he would've tried to be a magician. Or a short order cook, but a magician was first preference.

The Lovely Assistant hands GOB the linked rings with a smile.


(and the mun is sorry. taking care of drunk people, it turns out, is my life's calling. apparently)

[OOC: Ack! I never got this notification, so I didn't know you showed up. Want to play it out just so it's on the record, or should we just assume that it went relatively okay? I'll be around most of the day if we want to run with it.]

Get your whistle wet before you hit the stage.

Anakin scuttled walked through the door shortly after opening and made a beeline over to the bar, looking for the owner.

Re: The Bar

[karaoke-lizard.livejournal.com]

"Hey there Kajagoogoo! How can I wet your whistle tonight!"

Re: The Bar

[emo-padawan.livejournal.com]

"Um, water would be fine," Anakin said, yanking on his braid. "I had a question about, um, my performance a few nights ago."

Since he had a free night, Kawalsky decided to check out Caritas. He'd heard good things about it. He waited for the bartender to serve him.

[Sliding into the seat beside him she smiles at Lorne and Tino.] Whiskey Sour, extra cherries and a wedge of orange if you have it. Hiya K, be my date?

Re: The Bar

[karaoke-lizard.livejournal.com]

"Hey there you two! Sorry to keep you waiting. One whiskey sour for the lovely lady with the knowledge of Sonny & Cher tunes."

Re: The Bar

[kawalsky.livejournal.com]

"Hey boss lady. I'll be your date as long as you promise not to laugh too hard when I sing."

*Hamlet enters Caritas, a little unsure of where to go, having never been here before. He heads over towards the bar and examines the choices available.*

Hey kid, slide down here and drink my whiskey. [Points up, invites you to jump in]

The Stage

The Zombie Band is waiting for you!

This one's going out to my babygirl.

You can dance, you can jive, having the time of your life
See that girl, watch that scene, dig in the dancing queen

Friday night and the lights are low
Looking out for the place to go
Where they play the right music, getting in the swing
You come in to look for a king
Anybody could be that guy
Night is young and the music’s high
With a bit of rock music, everything is fine
You’re in the mood for a dance
And when you get the chance...

You are the dancing queen, young and sweet, only seventeen
Dancing queen, feel the beat from the tambourine
You can dance, you can jive, having the time of your life
See that girl, watch that scene, dig in the dancing queen

You’re a teaser, you turn ’em on
Leave them burning and then you’re gone
Looking out for another, anyone will do
You’re in the mood for a dance
And when you get the chance...

You are the dancing queen, young and sweet, only seventeen
Dancing queen, feel the beat from the tambourine
You can dance, you can jive, having the time of your life
See that girl, watch that scene, dig in the dancing queen

"Shake it, Claudia Jean!"

K found himself tapping his foot along with the beat. Once CJ finished, he applaueded with gusto. "Go CJ!"

Charlie stepped up to the stage. His voice wasn't great, but Sinatra was in his vocal range, so he sounded decent.

Autumn in New York
Why does it seem so inviting?
Autumn in New York
It spells the thrill of first-nighting

Glittering crowds and shimmering clouds in canyons of steel
They're making me feel I'm home

It's autumn in New York
That brings the promise of new love
Autumn in New York
Is often mingled with pain

Dreamers with empty hands
They sigh for exotic lands

It's autumn in New York
It's good to live it again

This autumn in New York
Transforms the slums into Mayfair
Autumn in New York
You'll need no castles in Spain

Lovers that bless the dark
On benches in Central Park

It's autumn in New York
It's good to live it again


By the end of it, he feels a little homesick and has a distant look on his face.

[She claps loud, whistling. When he gets back to the chair she hugs him warmly.] Well done K...loved it!

Re: The Stage

[kawalsky.livejournal.com]

"Thanks," K smiled. "Can't go wrong with Sinatra."

*From over at the bar, Hamlet applauds Kawalsky. His voice is a little off, but his rendition is still pretty good.*

Hey boys, can you take the tempo to "torch" for the guys I love?
[She sings a sultry jazz version of Collide]

The dawn is breaking
A light shining through
You're barely waking
And I'm tangled up in you
Yeah

I'm open, you're closed
Where I follow, you'll go
I worry I won't see your face
Light up again

Even the best fall down sometimes
Even the wrong words seem to rhyme
Out of the doubt that fills my mind
I somehow find
You and I collide

I'm quiet you know
You make a frist impression
I've found I'm scared to know I'm always on your mind

Even the best fall down sometimes
Even the stars refuse to shine
Out of the back you fall in time
I somehow find
You and I collide

Even the best fall down sometimes
Even the wrong words seem to ryhme
Out of the doubt that fills your mind
You finally find
You and I collide

You finally find
You and I collide
You finally find
You and I collide
