    guitar solo starts

    “Alright, all the Guitar Hero guys knew this part was coming up… how y’all doing tonight, (city)? Yeah, this is the part where I just stand here, so, if you need to make a trip to the bathroom or visit the lovely bar staff, now’s the time!”

    Whenever I’m put on the spot in front of a large group of people I like to put on a emcee/ announcer type character, usually fills the gap and gets some laughs

      If it’s a more private group, like karaoke at a friend’s house, I typically give background information on the song. “This song was written underneath Seattle’s Space Needle and is about the homeless.” It would sort of ruin the vibe at a bar so I don’t do that lol.
