So today my mate & I went for a karok session at Redbox, Sunway Pyramid. Karok is one of my favourite past times. An effective way to release all the stress apart from sewing...
We sesat OK! My friend arrived first & she tawaf around the area 3 times but couldn't find the place! Hahaha! The place is actually just outside of Sunway Pyramid (still within the premise though). With little signboard, it's quite confusing. I gave up because I didn't wanna waste time, thus I asked a waiter. Once you went outside, you need to turn right & walk until the end, then you turn left, go down the staircase & it's on your left!!
We arrived there at 11.30 AM, which is the lunch hour as we planned. It's the cheapest out of all the other hours. Imagine karok in the morning HAHA! Our session is actually until 1.30 PM, but we extended until 3 PM. Us two karok until lebam for 3 hours & we still think it's not enough! Gile!
AMBIENCE: 7/10
We got a small room, given we're only a party of two! So it was cozy but not much space to "move around" (if ya know what I mean). The room is sound proof. No one will hear you croaking ;-)
It's also clean & no weird odour... (I really can't stand room with cigs smell!).

There's a touch-screen TV for us to choose our favourite songs. You just need to type your favourite artists or songs. It's pretty snazzy except that I found it troublesome, having to turn my body sideways to use it. I didn't come here to exercise ok...
FOODS: 4/10
Since we were in the lunch hour, we got to choose from a variety of meals for our lunch, ranging from RM14++ - 20++. We both picked Spicy Seafood Fried Rice:
- It's NOT SPICY! -___-
- It's bland.... dia orang kehabisan stok garam kot *fikir positif*
- SEAFOOD means 1 ring of squid & 2 bijik small crab sticks. LOL. I give up... I didn't even finished my meal...
In the span of 3 hours, we were served 3 drinks each (mine were hot tea, ice lemon tea & mineral water). I didn't even have to bring my own drinking water as these were sufficient for me.
SONGS CHOICE: 6/10
OK I forgave you for not having The Wanted's new single "I Found You" (I so adore the high pitch chorus!) but how could you not have Freddy Mercury's "I Was Born To Love You"???? I remembered I karok to this song when I was at Senawang's cikai (a bit rundown) karaoke box!!!
How is it possible that you didn't have The Kooks' hit "Is It Me"???? How could you???????
My wajib nyanyi songs:
- Aerosmith's "I Don't Wanna Miss A Thing"
- Foster The People's "Pumped Up Kicks"
- Melly Goeslow's "Kubahagia"
- Savage Garden's "I Knew I Loved You"
- Freddie Mercury's "I Was Born To Love You"
- No Doubt's "Don't Speak"
- Any songs from Boyzone. My favourite boyband since I was in secondary school. I missed Stephen... (Today I sang "Picture of You" even though I really have wanted to sing "Love Is A Hurricane" -__-;; or rather you wanted to see their ripped chests right????)
- Any songs from Queen ("Don't Stop Me Now" is an adrenaline pumping song that never failed to make me excited!)
OOoooh!! I think I'll be making "Fantasia Bulan Madu" by Search, my new wajib nyanyi song. A super awesome song to karok to!!!
I need to recall a song that either my mate or I sang where we all were jumping up & down like a bunch of chimpanzees during karok session at News KTV Seremban Parade.
PRICING: 8/10
Go there as early as 11 AM and start
Final verdict: I definitely would love to come again! We're planning to make this activity our monthly activity. Hehehe. However, I do hope they broaden the song choices.
