100 Things to Do: #71 - Sing at 230 Down

Step into the spotlight at 230 Down — the bar downstairs at 230 Elm in Southampton Village — which hosts karaoke and open mic nights weekly, with no cover charge.

Beat the midweek blues with Underground Sound on Wednesdays, organized by local musician ScottE Hopson. Beginning at 7 p.m., anyone can sign up to perform. There are Artists of the Week as well, such as local favorites Caroline Doctorow and Michael Weiskopf.

To find out who is performing each week, join the Underground Sound Facebook group.

Karaoke night begins at 7:30 p.m. Thursdays. Accompanied by background music and lyrics, it’s a fun way to let your hair down. Adam Webb of Who's Next Karaoke and DJ Services hosts.

It's happy hour at 230 Elm, from 4 to 7 p.m. daily, and most Thursdays there is an all-you-can eat buffet available, typically for $10, so you can sing on a full stomach. 

The bar also has shuffleboard, pool, arcade games, and two Nintendo Wii video game consoles that patrons can play on big projector screens.
