Things To Do

Massaoke

What’s Massaoke, you ask?

At least we think that’s what you asked – having a hard time hearing you over the roar of this joyous crowd belting out the lyrics to some of the best songs ever written alongside an extremely charismatic and wildly attractive rock band performing on stage between pyrotechnics and gigantic projections of the lyrics in a sort of euphoric, mass-bonding musical experience that can best be described as the literal opposite of everything your life has been for at least the past week.

So yeah, it’s that. Mass karaoke. And it all takes place semi-regularly in London, at venues like Camden’s Electric Ballroom, The Grand in Clapham, and Between The Bridges.

Massaoke

The band that’ll be encouraging you to stretch your lungs and vocal chords beyond their usual capabilities is called Rockstar Weekend, a quartet of high-energy, highly talented, sequins-and-spandex-clad performers, each with their own distinct stage personalities. They’ve been doing this for a long time, and they’ve become very good at what they do. They even appeared in a big-time supermarket ad during the Olympics, so they’re actually like sort of almost kind of famous.

But the real stars of the show are the music… and you.

The songs that we’re all looking forward to hearing you perform (alongside hundreds of other people) include hits by Queen, Blink 182, Call Me Maybe, Frozen, Nirvana, Zeppelin, ABBA, Bowie, Madonna, The Killers and more. Basically if it’s a tune that you’re legally required to sing along to in the shower, in the car, or at a wedding then they’ll be playing it. And with the help of a few mashups and mega mixes, they’ll run through more hits than you would think reasonably possible plus you’ll get to enjoy a few face-melting guitar solos; giant confetti cannons blasting at the absolute high points of the revelry; vibrantly colourful LED drums, and – as we mentioned – gigantic screens projecting the lyrics out for you to follow along to.

As if you don’t know them already.
