So, on Saturday night, Paulie Boy and I hosted the Birtday Rally in Spirit Valley. As usual, a good time was had by most.

Here, the brothers Lundgren perform "Come Sail Away." Meanwhile, V-Nick looks on as Maria's face melts.

Karaoke masters line up to dispute Larry Holmes' so-called "Championship." At a nearby table, however, an historic event takes place: sushi is consumed in the Rustic Bar.

Gartman leads a rousing rendition of "Livin' on a Prayer." Paul begins to get creepy.

I suppose this would be a good place to hide the Drunkest Picture of Me Ever Taken.

Rustic karaoke shut down at midnight, which lead to the inevitable plan: more karaoke at the Keyport.

And so the evening ended, as all good birthday parties should, with a nice game of Pin the Tongue on Gene Simmons.
