Guest rhap Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 i've never seen a seedy karaoke and i've been to a fair few... here's a list of some Phoenix (Dixon Street) Green Box (Pitt st) Green Box Plus (opposite World Square) Red Box (pitt street) K Square (capitol) Big Echo (pitt st) Cash Box (Dixon st) Viva (dunno where this one is) can't think of any more at the moment btw, apparently one karaoke near Hyde Park is haunted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Raindeer Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 K-world or something, I went there about 827 years ago, haven't been back since rhap has pretty much mentioned most of the ones that are normal ? There is drinking usually on weekend nights because people bring their own alcohol and play drinking games. As for prostitutes, I've never encountered any at those places O_O Viva is on Kent St Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest _yinsyung*-- Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 If you're looking for one of those chinese ones with some english songs then i would recommend oo1; big echo - which is up pitt street; it has relatively newer songs oo2; greenbox - also on pitt street, although it's floors are always sticky for some reason oo3; k squared - i've only been once; but it's really pretty and you're still paying relatively the same price. This one's underneath capitol square on george street. other ones i've been to are kbox, cashbox, phoenix/neway, greenbox plus- all relatively okay the thing about some of these that may make them look dodgy is the fact you have to go underground which may seem a bit...gangsterish. but really, if you go during the daytime they're all quite safe. at most times, people that do drink alcohol will do so in their own karaoke room so it shouldn't be a problem even if you do go at night. but if you want to feel safer, i suggest going in the day to try it out. prices should be no more than $5/hr; and most chiense places have specials e.g. free drinks (non-alcoholic) and 3 hours for $10 etc. i've only been to korean noraebang once, that was at FMradio in Strathfield opposite the chinese restaurant near the station. that was i think $10/hour or some rippoff price like that. there were people smoking out the front but nothing dangerous... hope i helped {edit} i've been k-ing for a good 3-4 years and i've never once encountered any prostitutes or anything close to that kind; nor drunks - or even people holding beer for that matter. and i've been at both day and nighttime. karaoke these days is a largely family friendly environment so go with your younger siblings (ifyou have any) if you want to - i do :x -yinyin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest twinkle_l0ve Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 ahhahhaha aww, k isnt too bad in sydney =) i usually go to [x] live - city [x] eastwood karaoke [x] chatswood karaoke [x] epping karaoke. prices are pretty cheap if you split it between friends have fun at karaoke^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest rhap Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 the english songs are really bad though - think backstreet boys, britney spears and some other pop stuff from the late 90s early 2000s....though Green Box does have This Love by Maroon 5....otherwise, there are a lot english songs from the 80s... btw, they have ridiculous video clips that substitute the MV for eng songs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MUSTARD* Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 IMO Big Echo and K Mix are pretty cheap! Greenbox Plus looks really cool! And I've never been to RedBox but in Hong Kong they have Karaoke Buffet.. wish they had it here.. (LIKE IN THE LOVE AT FIRST NOTE MOVIE!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Raindeer Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 don't go at night if u dun wanna see drunks walking around, they have a rule at all karaokes is no drinking or smoking in the lobby area, so u won't see any of that, but you will see people waiting to go into rooms in the lobby, plus at night they have security guards so it should be ok. don't goto greenbox the old one, its absolutely disgusting, if u really want, goto greenbox plus, the price is not that much different Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest rhap Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 just a question: are music studios the same as karaokes? Because i was just walking around Strathfield today (well actually i'm in a net cafe in Strathfield right now) and i see a couple of music studios so i thought they were places were singers trained?

Guest dreamstar Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 theres like millions [exaggeration] karaoke places in the city.. redbox have a good sound quality tho.. but the place is small.. cashbox and k-world is not bad too, just that k-world are usually tad bit outdated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest hked Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 uhhh , viva is like where all the gang members hang out it seems that ksquare (the one i go to) is the best imo =P...updated songs, decent service buttt expensive drinks (4$ for a greentea =.=") greenbox is good but its not as updated big echo, is old so u might as well go to ksquare Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest rhap Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 ^really, the last time i went to ksquare i found that my room smelt like smoke (worse than any other one i've been in) and songs weren't updated and the microphones didn't really work - but that was when it first opened so it could have changed now...one thing i loved about ksquare, however, was the little covers that went over the microphones - nifty... i also have a $30 voucher to ksquare - don't know when i'm going to go next though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Raindeer Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 omg greenbox imo sucks so much, the toilets are absolutely soiled and the remotes are old and the tv's screens are all yellowed, if u really want to goto greenbox, goto greenbox plus coz its much newer and service is really good. I go there practicallly every friday night or saturday night so I'm pretty sure of the stuff. K-mix has a good sound system but big echo's sound is not that good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
