On Friday, Nov. 7, local coffee shop and lounge The Landing in Portsmouth plans to host another event. This time, the establishment is hosting a “Name That Karaoke” event featuring DJ Geek Techneek.
This event is advertised as an alternate version of “Name That Tune” designed to make the game more engaging and entertaining. While similar to the original game, “Name That Karaoke” plays the backing track instead of the original song so no lyrics can be identified. Those participating are tasked with naming the song and/or the artist of the song based on the music itself.
Based on previous turnouts for this event and similar ones, Darian Lisath, one of the employees at The Landing stated that there should be an expected turnout of “10-15 people.” Lisath further stated that this event will be free to attend, and “a cover won’t be needed for the DJ.”
The event is slated to begin at 6 p.m. with an expected ending time of roughly 8:30 p.m. While this is after the stated store hours of 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Fridays, Lisath made sure to note that “drinks will stop being served at 8 tonight to follow regular store hours.”
As a reminder to any SSU students or active faculty who want to participate and get drinks, they can receive a discount of up to $1 per drink if they order. This event is also held monthly and advertised by The Landing for those who may miss this Friday’s session.
