She’s Out Of My League

Paramount Pictures and Casino is doing an event tomorrow at the Happy Ending Restaurant and Pickle Factory with us for their movie “She’s Out Of My League”.

One of the characters is in a Hall y Oates tribute band so if you sing the one Hall et Oates tune we know (Maneater… is there any other Hall und Oates tune?) not only will you have sung with the finest Live Karaoke Band in the UNIVERSE, you will get a free pass to see She’s Out Of My League and $40,000. But you won’t really get $40,000. I made that up, see.

We did an event with them for She’s Out Of My League this past Monday Night at the Cafe Boogaloo Cafe & Diner and it was pure insanity.

In other news, the good peeps at the Happy Ending Bar, Restaurant & Loan have promised us a stage and new sound system so when you sing, instead of feeling disappointed and sad, you will be able to hear yourself. The audience will be able to hear you, ass well.

And that’s all we care about, which is why Corey plays with brushes and Corey and I (Corey) play with our little amplifiers instead of our mountainous stacks of hotness.

Now you will be truly rock (or mellow & peaceful if you sing Imagine).

Speaking of new songs!

Maneater – the aformentioned Hall y Oates
Sex on Fire – Kings of Leon
Vasoline – STP
Goodbye to You – Scandal

See you in the trenches, people.

I love you & respect you too much to hurt you, much.

Mondays at Cafe Boogaloo

Our Monday night gig at Cafe Boogaloo is, as they say, “off the hook” and going great gangbusters. Make sure you get there early (by 10pm) to sign up as the list fills up REALLY FAST!

Boogaloo is great and everything, food, drinks, tables, posters, waitresses, bartenders, are a mere FIVE BUCKS!
(alright, just the food and drinks… the rest is negotiable)

We miss our buds at the Lovitz Comedy Club on Mondays, but Hermosa rules. We’re scared of the summer. It’s going to be completely and utterly insane.

Also… we’ve added a bunch more songs:
Smells Like Teen Spirit – Nirvana
Smells Like Nirvana – Weird Al Yankovic
Song #2 (woohoo!) – Blur
Where the Streets Have No Name – U2

We also have 3 private parties coming up… all is well in Coreyoke land.

We’re looking to play on Sunday nights somewhere. But, isn’t everyone?

Corey On!!

I don’t know how we missed this one…

CAFE BOOGALOO – MONDAY NIGHTS

We’re starting a brand new gig (for us, at least) on Monday Nights at a place in Hermosa Beach called “CAFE BOOGALOO”.

It has nothing to do with the movie “Breakin’ II – Electric Boogaloo”, but we won’t hold that against them.

It does, however, have a STAGE and a KICKING P.A. – Two things that each and every Corey dreams about.

1238 Hermosa Ave

The music begins at 9pm and will finish when we have blown you away with two full sets of Corey fantasticness.

This is a place we’ve had our eye on for some time now and are really thrilled to be playing there. They’ve been known to throw down some great prizes for people who sing karaoke. Just sayin’.

See you there!

Corey On!!!

I GOT YOU BABE!

New song, people. “I Got You, Babe”, from Salvatore Bono and his lovely gal-pal Cherilynn Sarkisian LaPiere.

It is a tremendous song and, as a duet, you really only get half the glory.

But it’s still better than the rough cut of Prayer of the Rollerboys.

Hoping to see some of you at the Jon Lovitz Comedy Club up at the Universal Citywalk. It is our favorite gig and we’d like to keep it.

Handling your booze

If you get so drunk that you stagger up on stage and fall over into guitar playing Corey and land on his elaborate, expensive pedal board that he paid for with money he made from our 900 line back in the 80’s. You might want to say “I’m sorry” instead of yelling random stuff at us over the next thirty minutes until even the bouncers get sick of you and throw you out. You also might want to think twice before you hit one of us as you’re being dragged out.

Especially if you’re a female.
Especially if you’re a female who has done this before at least once.

We speak from experience!!

Corey On!

Can you blame the dog?

She is hot!

This looks great!!!

This could’ve been a movie with The Corey!
Ah well…

Most Popular Songs…

The number of times we’ve played each song. Sorry Gary Wright!

The problem with this is that some songs have been added more recently, so even though we may play a song like Dock of the Bay or Proud Mary every show, it won’t ever catch up to something like Don’t Stop Believing because we play that song every week, too and it’s been on the list longer.

Maybe that makes sense.
