It was a pretty good night. Lot's of information shared with both Jimmy and Magoo-san.
The Alien has struck up an interesting relationship with Magoo-san. For some reason, Magoo-san has decided to allow The Alien to train him to follow orders and do little tricks and tasks for him. You can see Magoo-san dancing at the end of the Puppet Master's strings in the picture to the left (credit to Ryan for this most excellent "candid"). It is actually kind of adorable. The title of this post comes from his interpretation of PROUD MARY, which he only performed because The Alien ordered him to do it.
The Alien also ordered him to share what he did when he is not K'ing. Interest was peaked when we noticed he was wearing scrubs... Turns out he a Homecare Nurse (shudder). Paraphrasing Rhonda, his is not the face you would want to wake up from a comma to.
Marie update: According to Jimmy Marie opens the bar daily (11am). She is usually too drunk to be allowed to stay by the time Jimmy comes on duty (5pm) and she clears out. Still has the taste for Blackb'ry brandy it seems as well.
Met a new character last night as well - Toothless Lover. It is all in the name. He is not, in fact, toothless... he has couple of teeth. But the overall effect is "toothless". What he lacks in choppers he makes up in charm and dancing ability - taking all the ladies for a spin on the "dance floor" (the DMZ between "stage" and "bar"). Even our Rhonda was swept onto the "floor" - where she immediately proceeded to purposely collide with me during my "performance".
Matchbox Kenny has come up at least 2 notches in our books due his efficient and consistent moving us to the top of the list, maintaining, in his words, "the rotation" (!!). This was especially appreciated given the number of beyond Irony Hipsters that kept getting off the Northwestern Campus bus that must have started a route between campus and Karaoles. Sheesh!
It was a good night and I am looking forward to the Next R that we K @ K's
