The downside to this club (for me at least) is that because it's technically not in Saint Paul (with the smoking ban), it's filled with smokers. The karaoke usually starts around 9:45pm on the weekends. They have a small stage, and a mirrorball. Good selection of old and new songs with a diverse age groups that come to hang out. Quite a few regulars. There is quite a bit of audience participation, especially on the well known songs. The place is usually full, but not overcrowded. I brought 30+ people out for a karaoke night and we all fit (some standing though) without a reservation. The place gets full, but because it small you can still sing quite a few songs. The rotation goes pretty quickly. Come by around 9 if you want to get a table or sit at the bar. Pitchers of domestics are cheap and the service isn't bad. The food is standard bar fare. It's a dive bar, but it's fun.
Pros: Always a good sized karaoke crowd, but small enough you can get in 4 songs or so each.
Cons: Way too smoky. They need to get a filtration system or something!
