I've been meaning to write a real article about this club for a while. But tonight is alternative karaoke night at Ground Control.

Yes, karaoke. Yes, I'm serious. Yes, it's actually fun.

If you're looking for something laid-back to do tonight that doesn't require a dress code or hipper-than-thou attitude, check out Ground Control at Jewel's Catch One. The karaoke "menu" is different from the standard karaoke songs, so you'll find no wanna-be American Idols here. Instead, the playlist is an eclectic mix of alternative, goth, punk, oldies, and a few homemade tracks. There's even dinner to be had. It gets started around six or so with a free (really) happy hour, then karaoke from 9 to about 12, and dance music afterward.

All the gory details are here:
