I'll admit it. I'm a karaoke junkie. My friends and I call it our ‘group hobby’. When we don’t feel like hitting the bars, we go to booth karaoke. Venus is one of the two options we have found in the city. The good part—all of their music selections are through some online server, so the music queues up fast. The bad side, there are no binders to flip through, so you have to navigate on a secondary, small tv with a remote controller to search for and program the song you want. It doesn’t disrupt the person who is singing, so that is good. The search feature is ok. Selection is decent, probably its biggest downside. Many of the English songs have alternative karaoke videos with japanese actors. The rooms are kind of fun and barrack like in a modern minimalist kind of way. They offer 8 different languages to choose from. I've only been once, but it was a fun evening with good friends.
