Terms and Conditions:
Dust off those skinny jeans, dig out that eyeliner (that means you, boys) and make sure your mullet is coiffed within an inch of its life. Because on 17 April, we're going to make you a star.
Rockaoke, the UK's leading live rock karaoke band, ask their audience to live the dream by taking to the mic and belting out a selection of rock classics. Following fantastic stints at V Festival and Manumission's Ibiza Rocks - where even Kaiser Chief Ricky Wilson joined the boys onstage - the band will be playing a unique showcase at Sway in Holborn, and we'd ilke you to be there to soak up the atmosphere.
If you're planning an event, a college ball, a corporate bash or maybe just the best birthday ever, come along and see how the guys can really get a party going. And, if you're ready to release your inner Bon Jovi, you can indulge in a bit of Dutch courage (the bar is free before 9pm, or until the beer runs out) and take to the stage yourself. But be warned, this gig is likely to be a sell-out, so get there early to secure your spot - with a first-come-first-served policy on the door, anyone rocking up late will miss their moment in the spotlight.
Best of all, Rockaoke will even learn a song for you. True, you're more likely to get a result if you're looking for a Guns N Rosessong than if you request that Armenian progressive glam-metal track that nobody else has heard of, but the boys will consider all suggestions.
Press Release - "ROCKAOKE - THE ONE AND ONLY":

With a set list packed full of rock classics old and new, from Aerosmith to Avril Lavigne, you can finally enjoy your five minutes of fame behind the mic backed by a professional live band. Their regular London performances prove that, whatever the event, a few tunes from Rockaoke are more than enough to make the crowd go wild. And don’t worry if, when it comes to vocals, you’re no Freddie Mercury – have a look at the videos at www.rockaoke.co.uk and rest assured you are not alone.
The Rockaoke boys have played huge gigs such as V Festival, and were even joined on stage at Manumission’s Ibiza Rocks by Kaiser Chief Ricky Wilson, as well as maintaining residencies at a number of clubs across the country.
