➡ DANIEL BROMFIELD, @BROMF3

onic Youth’s Kim Gordon once said people go to rock shows to watch other people believe in themselves. The same can be said of karaoke —S except it’s usually free, and the singing is generally a whole lot worse. Invented in Japan in 1971, this ingenious little technology has allowed millions of drunken revelers to fulfill their rock-star dreams, with all the self-aware- ness rock stars usually don’t have. Karaoke isn’t about hitting the right notes but about transcending your inability to do so — or, if you can hit the right notes, getting the audience you deserve. It’s a spiritual, if occasionally ter- rifying, experience. If you feel up to it, there’s karaoke in Eugene every night of the week. Here are just a few of your options.
