"Songs
of Praise"
Ireland's
favourite karaoke night is taking to the road
at the end of the month for eight nights for
a college based Rock + Roll Karaoke Contest. Our winning formula
will be taking place in Dublin's major colleges
and our home the Village, Wexford St. All leading
to a grand final in the newly opened Button
Factory.
The SOP Contest will be taking place on Campus
and in some of the city's best venues over
the course of the 12 days.
We are looking for Ireland's newest and greatest
Karaoke singers with that Rock Star edge!
Winners of each heat will receive an XBOX
package worth over €1,000 including an
Xbox 360 console, Guitar
Hero III and other
selected games. The over all winner will receive
a customised Gibson electric guitar worth over €2,000.
Songs of praise has over the last two years
become an iconic night out. A place where the
genuinely talented and the truly freaky can
release their inner rock star and exorcise
their demons. Many come simply to watch in
awe, among them The Killers, Kaiser Chiefs,
Franz Ferdinand and Tony Bennet.
Your host on the night will be Barbara
McCarthy of RTE's "Highly Recommended" She
will be directing proceedings form the alter!.
She will also well be introducing the air guitar
game, Guitar
Hero III both on the stage and in dedicated
gaming zones through out the venue.
In-between Karaoke bouts DJ Sinead NiMhordha from Phantom
105.2 will be providing songs
of faith and devotion to keep the dance floor
rocking.
"In the age of X Factor and Pop Idol
- it's refreshing to have some good old Rock
+ Roll inspired Karaoke for the masses. We
can't make you famous - but we can make you
feel like a star for a few minutes! Songs
of Praise is the best fun night out you'll
ever have! Trust me and trust in the Lord.' Martin
Thomas of The Rock + Roll Rescue Squad
