Karaoke for One

I've been getting into some weird hobbies lately and one including trying to record heavy metal vocals, something I find my thin walled Japanese apartment unsuitable for, so I did something I've never done before.

I went to the Karaoke box by myself.

I did look it up online and apparently you can also rent rooms for telecommuting, meetings and such if the need arises. 

I wish the big echo mic would talk to my phone. Unfortunately that just did not work so I recorded with my dinky mic I bought off of Amazon. I wound up with five takes on a 90 second song and later edited the best of those together.

While I feel like a hit some great notes despite frying my throat, the guys I'm working with felt the space was too full of echoes and the mic shredded things at a certain volume level, so I'm going to try a softer rendition at home before I go back to the place where I can scream.

Still, I feel good about doing things I'm afraid of, including singing in front of people and renting karaoke rooms by myself.
