I absolutely, positively refuse to sing.

Subject: Slightly used, somewhat new.

Pensodyssey, always a contrarian. We have a selection of brand new old songs that might appeal to you. Stevie Nicks might sway your Dreams by a Landslide. Perhaps The Clash might Rock The Casbah if London is Calling you.

You just might develop a Lust for Life, you pointed Pinball Wizard. Even though you might say to yourself I Don’t Like Mondays you might be thinking "H.A.M. is Just What I Needed." So when you Walk This Way on Wednesday, drop in. It's not like Janie’s Got A Gun.

Take It Easy and don't lose that Peaceful Easy Feelin'.

Josseleen, I thought you'd be more impressed with my Springsteen selection.

BTW, would you remidn Peter Ego to "bring" the Empire State package. I haven't seen him in a while.

pensodyssey

Four that wanna own, me, two that wanna stone me, and one, well, shes a friend of mine.

I'm in. I might even wear all denim just to complete the Eagles vibe.

Penn, I'm assuming your ensemle includes a vest with your name be-dazzled in rhinstones.

H.A.M. UPDATE:

Bill C. will be out this evening. Yesterday, he was bitten by a radioactive spider. All I know is that he said "The Joker! Spidey sense tingling!". He shot a web rope from his wrist, then flew up into the sky with our Janie's Got A Gun voiceless track. Bummer! But he left Walk This Way behind. Replacing Janie's... tonight is the rock odyssey I Would Do Anything For Love by Meatloaf. Subbing for Bill C. this evening is lovely guest host Ivana Phunkalot. See you all tonight.

Well, that sums up our song list. To view out full list of over 300 GET OUT! songs go to: http://karaokebigassham.com/list.html.

We will not be taking requests for new songs until the fall. A reminder H.A.M. takes a summer break in July and August.

Subject: Ciao

Did anyone watch that piece of pizza fly out of my mouth during Hallelujah? That was scary. As we bid a fond goodbye to this topic H.A.M. would like to say thanks to guest hostess Ivana Phunkalot. You were a super sultry siren! We are all Hopelessly Devoted To You. You gave us Fever.

Happy Birthday Gen, I hope you enjoyed your Big Bohemian Birthday sing along. NOTE: We should get some birthday songs. This seems to keep happening.

To our ham winner, Muffin Top, Congratulations! Thanks for your many contributions of music from a long ago era, the 80s. Your reheated a Meatloaf rock odyssey with I’d Do Anything For Your Love and made it tasty.

Friends are in from Europe! English Gina Irish Briana, enjoy the Empire State Package! You just couldn’t Let It Be. This prize was made possible by the generosity of Peter Ego, our tour guide of the stars. Catch him on the Grayline!

To Peter Ego, you rock and you roll! You took a Stand for Modern Love. I hope you find our selection of canned tuna snacks satisfying.

Pensodyssey, you wore that denim outfit proudly. Take it Easy. Ciao.
