From the Where2sing.com forum: Hey guys No you're not going crazy. I did type most of this before in some form but have asked David to delete those previous posts so that this once can replace them. ;)
You may have seen on the General Forum my claim to have visited so many karaoke venues over the years.*** Been nutting it out and came up with the following list for the Sydney Metropolitan area and Greater NSW venues alone that I have visited, arranged alphabetically by location. (There were a few others on the list but I deleted the 2 restaurant listings and my memory was vague as to whether the remaining gigs were karaoke or just talent quests, so I deleted those too. Decided since this is the NSW forum, I'd leave out the Queensland venues visited). As you can see, I do get around! LOL
***PLEASE NOTE that this list below covers venues I recall from my past 14 and a half years of karaokeing, so many of the gigs are no longer running. Only a few gigs listed below are current ones to my knowledge; several of those, recognisable from previous forum posts.
