The Songs of Praise song list is cheese free and they have a huge custom selection of rock, indie and alternative tracks for audience members to make their own, mangle or just howl along to. The show is staged with a backdrop of Marshal Amps pumped through a huge sound system.

++++ Running in the Village Venue on Wexford Street since March 2005 and is “now firmly established as the city’s place to go on the Lord’s Day”. [The Guardian]. The concept itself is simple. We get people to do Rock & Roll Karaoke songs on a big stage thru’ a very loud sound system. Rock & Roll Karaoke is credible, alternative rock songs. Think Bon Jovi, the Kaiser Chiefs, Van Halen, U2 The Killers etc. There’s no ABBA on OUR list. And it works. It works so well and people have so much fun that it has made Karaoke COOL. Very cool. We’ve had the Killers in for a look, we’ve had Tony Bennet in the audience, we’ve had every Dublin muso on stage. We’ve also had a lot of fun. And so have the punters.
Now, it’s not only Karaoke. It’s Djs too and it’s audience interaction through a host. The formula runs like this; we do 20 minutes of DJ action and then it’s over to the, Marshall Stack back dropped, stage for 15 minutes of Rock & Roll Karaoke – all seamlessly achieved though the host of the night, Sister Barbara. Then back to the DJ for some more alternative tunes. So in essence what the audience get is the best of both worlds – big indie and rock classics from the Djs and big indie and rock classics from themselves and their mates. They also get to point the finger and laugh a lot. This is what makes it so special – as sometimes the worst singers are actually the best entertainment. In Dublin Magazine has “been having some much covert fun. We decided we had to share the fun with you lot” while The Dubliner says its “Dublin’s best karaoke night.”
