Greetings fellow karaoke goers. The venue we used when AALL last met in San Antonio in 2005 is no more, so this year we move to the Republic of Texas restaurant at 526 River Walk Street. The restaurant is a half-mile walk from the Marriott Rivercenter, this year’s headquarters hotel. The singing festivities begin at 9:00 p.m. on Sunday, July 13. There’s a special treat this year: as one of her last “official” acts as President-Elect, Holly Riccio has promised to join me in a duet.

For those of you unfamiliar with the karaoke experience, please check out our backgrounder.

Hope to see you in San Antonio!
