Here’s something new to look forward to: it’s truly live, it’s rock n’ roll and absolutely anything could happen. Local performer and promoter Nicolas Ullmann has successfully brought his Kararocké concept to Parisian clubs such as Le Baron, Paris Paris and La Flèche d’Or over the past years. Now he’s set to take over Le Régine for a weekly party where the public takes to the stage for a sweaty rockin’ session with a band. Everyone loves a pissed up karaoke but this takes things one step further. Instead of the usual instrumental playback, future pop queens and rock kings can get up there with a live band, test their vocal skills and strut their stuff. This could be a little painful to listen to live, but it could also be the most fun you’ve had for ages before Monday kicks in! Every Sunday, 10pm at Le Régine & live on Awdio.
