CHUCK DULA: FIVE STUDIO MUSICIANS AND A MICROPHONE >>>
In the early '70s, a Japanese musician by the name of Daisuke Inoue invented the first ever Karaoke machine. The name Karaoke comes from a combination of the word Kara-meaning empty and Okesutora- meaning orchestra. However, even Daisuke's Sadist ass couldn't have fathomed what I experienced last night.
Rockaroake is the brainchild of George Aragon and Rusty Urie, formerly of Hit Explosion. I spoke with George about what ingredients were required to make the current Rockaroake stew. "Rockaraoke is comprised of a rotating group of local studio musicians," Aragon told me.
Do any of you participate in original projects, I asked?
"Of course. A couple of our guys recently went on tour with one of the former member's of the highly successful Christian band, Petra."
Cool.
I wanted to see, firsthand, what was going on with this Rockaraoke, which meant a trip to Jazzbones in Tacoma. Every Monday night the club hosts the most raucous Rockaraoke in town. Here is my story.
News and entertainment from Joint Base Lewis-McChord’s most awesome weekly newspapers - The Ranger, Northwest Airlifter and Weekly Volcano.
