Welcome to the Karaoke Command Center for the
2010 Gaslight Festival Karaoke Contest!

This year marks the 41st anniversary of the Jeffersontown Gaslight Festival, and The Thoroughbreds are proud to sponsor the 4th Annual Karaoke Contest.

*** UPDATE SEPTEMBER 2, 2010 ***

The 2010 contest is well under way. Group A has come and gone, with 24 contestants qualifying for the Quarter-Final round. Group B has been to Maxwell's and Gaslite Tavern. The Group will continue with Adults at Kingpin Lanes (Friday) and PassTime Fish House Tavern (Saturday).

Kids and Teens will start this weekend at GT's, Cancun and Johnny V's.

A list of qualifiers has been posted and we will soon be putting up photos from this year's contest. Click Here for the current standings and dates of the upcoming Quarter-Final rounds.

Four extra qualifying sessions have been added to the Adults Division and the quarter-final round begins AFTER all of the qualifying rounds have been completed. The most important change is that the winners will be determined by a composite score from ALL rounds and contestants will be required to perform a different song in each round. Click Here to download the official rules.

Be sure to try out our new contest locations:
 
GT's Sports Bar & Grill, 3701 Hopewell Rd. ~ Kids and Teens
 
Maxwell's Bar & Grill, 9909 Taylorsville Rd. ~ Adults*
 
Smokey Bones, 2525 Hurstbourne Gem Ln. ~ Adults*

*Kids and Teens are welcome to root on Mom and Dad of course, but these locations only have Adults Division contests.

Registrations are limited to no more than 20 contestants per division during each qualifying round, so we continue to encourage everyone to “pre-register” in advance for the location of their choice. Don't miss the opportunity to compete when and where you want! You can pre-register now by clicking Here.

TIP
You can improve your chances of qualifying by competing during the week instead of on weekends. There usually won’t be as many people to compete against (this can also improve your chances of winning door prizes). The Monday and Tuesday venues would be the best nights to take advantage of this opportunity.
