The Baltimore Rock Opera Society is evolving! Join us for three nights of karaoke throughout the month of May celebrating more than 10 years of rock opera. Nights 1 and 2 will culminate in karaoke-off with live band to crown final winners, though prizes will be awarded throughout. All events held at The Crown pink room.
Decide what evolution means to you, and come dressed to impress. Characters, costumes, props, dance moves and stunts are encouraged. Prizes will be creative.
The two THEMED nights are THE PAST and THE FUTURE. You may choose ANY popular song that loosely fits that category and choose which night you'd like to enter. You should put together a performance that fits the theme of your night or includes a CHANGE or EVOLUTION during the song. Think outside the box go nuts!
For example:
- THE PAST: Billie Holiday's "Lover Man" in full night club attire
- THE PAST: Chuck Berry's "Johnny B Goode" dressed at Marty McFly
- THE FUTURE: David Bowie's "Changes" dressed as a lizard and lizard backup dancers
- THE FUTURE: Daft Punk's "One More Time" with a live keytar solo
OR ANYTHING YOU CAN IMAGINE.
