Although there are quite a few venues offering that already, for instance Bounty and other have an open mic with lyrics for interested singers and a background. But Bounty is in horrible condition and who knows, if you pull it off in a different way and with some certain standards, it might just work. Good luck! ;-) Eric, sure sounds like fun.

Will try it out next time I will be in that area. Yup, the phenomemon about 'My Way' is well documented on the internet. Also mentioned here in Comments 16/17. Still I wonder if it's maybe just an Urban Legend? ;-) Elephant, thanks for the tip. Will try it out next time I will be in that area.

A bit pricey though. Oh, yeah, if you wanna watch the World Cup but dont want to jostle with the crowds at bars, this is your best bet. Oh yeah, did you know that the song ‘My Way’ has the most number of Karaoke singers being killed or maimed while singing this song in clubs across the Philippines?

Sorry for being so direct, but prostitution has world-wide the same universal business model and in those KTV bars it's no difference. I don't know you or your gf, but if you are no troll (just commenting here for stirring things up), I would recommend the following: forget about that girl and move on - you can get the girl out of the bar, but not the bar out of the girl. Stories about failed relationships in this milieu are legend; not only in Thailand, but all around Asia. Just my 2 cents and sorry again, if that came over a bit rude. :-/ You don’t understand how to get your d|ck out of your pants or the money out of your pocket, Antoni?

Have you been to any Karaoke place in Asia and especially Johor Baru? I really don't know, if I should give you hope or the truth, but am pretty sure, you will find out eventually. Just one thing, 99% of KTV places in JB (or Batam in Indonesia for that matter) are not about singing. :-? You aren’t serious about that one, Antoni, right?
