Please allow me to just say right now, “Don, please don’t ever do that thing you did to that pole again”. Although, I gotta say, you are bendy and have some pretty good pole-dancing moves. I’m sure that takes practice. Kudos for tryin’, that’s fer sure!

Mikki hosts a great show at Toby Magee’s every Saturday and her regulars just love this woman to death. She’s of course been around the area for a good long time, so she’s got friends all over the place.

Cami and her brood of friends will burst into song at any given time. Don’t be shy. Right Don?

Whitney wasn’t shy when she got up on the stage and took the mic for her first karaoke experience. What do I do? Attack her with a camera – nice, huh? No, I gently took one shot and she’s probably glad it exists now.

Brian is one of Toby’s regular singers too. He’s been hangin’ out here for years and loves the atmosphere. His friends are here, it’s his favorite bar. Brian’s a humongous karaoke fan and gets around plenty to check out the shows around town.

“Toby Magee’s had a record-breaking month of October”, according to owner Cami, “Karaoke has been popular and busy.”

And we’re glad to hear of it, Cami. We like to see folks out enjoying themselves. Takes the edge off some tough times sometimes. It’s good to have a release, and karaoke at Toby’s is just what the doctor ordered. You just never quite know what you’re in for when you visit Toby’s. Always something going on and the people make it a very special place full of surprise. I’m sure Don and Cami would agree. They’ve put in yomen’s work at Toby Magee’s and it’s definitely paid off. Their circle of friendship has grown immensely.

The staff is super friendly and always easy to look at. They all support the karaoke without doubt. Some even sing themselves, just ask Bonnie who works the bar, and sings beautifully.

Christy took a turn, Mikki has really begun to build a great following and hopes to see you at Toby Magee’s next Saturday night for some singin’!
