Now you have a valid excuse for singing in the shower: start rehearsing for Social Media Club Vancouver’s Tech-Inspired Karaoke!
Join us at On The Edge Pub on July 1st from 7:00 pm to 9:00 pm and release the Sinatra or Beyoncé within. After 9:00 pm, it’s open-mic at On The Edge. Canada Day, karaoke and social media. It doesn’t get much better than that!
To get you inspired, our friend Rob Jones has compiled a list with some of the best tech-themed tunes of all times:
Mr. Roboto – Styx
Video Killed The Radio Star – The Buggles
Turn It On Again – Genesis
Cars – Gary Numan
Paranoid Android – Radiohead
Pocket Calculator – Kraftwerk
Radio Gaga – Queen
Radio Sweetheart – Elvis Costello
Listen to the Radio – Pukka Orchestra
Space Oddity – David Bowie
Cooling the Medium – Martha & the Muffins
Red Barchetta – Rush
Hanging on the Telephone – Blondie
Kodachrome – Paul Simon
IGY – Donald Fagen
Airwaves – Thomas Dolby
The Passenger – Iggy Pop
I Don’t Like Mondays – Boomtown Rats
Those are just some suggestion, but fear not – you’ll also be able to sing the karaoke classics that we have all come to know and love.
RSVP and spread the word about the event through Facebook.
On The Edge Pub is located at 303 Columbia Street. There is NO COST for this event, so let’s have some fun!
My contribution: Telegraph Road. It’s the most social media-y song of all time.
You missed “She Blinded Me With Science” and “Rocketman”.
(As a consummate geek, I like to collect scifi-themed songs.)
