The Song Remains The Shame
by Tatty Devine

If you happen to be in Shoreditch on a Tuesday night, or actually anywhere in London, you have to go to The Legion, on Old Street.
For this is the home of the soon to be legendary, Hot Breath Karaoke.
Our friend Mike is the host with the most. His showmanship is beyond compare, his style is effortless and his enthusiasm puts a warm glow over the whole evening.
This is not just Karaoke, after each song the performers are invited to spin the wheel. The wheel is a home made affair, with categories like, I Want Candy, True or False and Dance Party 2000. Prizes, Sweets and Dancing punctuate the power of the karaoke ballads and people doing duets with hand puppets, every performance a star turn.
Maybe if your there you might catch Rosie doing Marilyn, and well, I haven't decided yet.
