Best Karaoke Night: Ego's Bar

Unlike other places that just dabble in the Japanese-bred art of karaoke, Ego's fully commits itself. Singers and saaaangers both find a home in this cozy space. Their book is not to be believed (we may or may not have sung Fannypack's "Cameltoe"), and the crowd is lovingly heckle-free. So try out that Beyoncé-inspired vocal run, girl, 'cause you've really got nothing to lose but your dignity and self-respect.
