Two karaoke places are opening up right on top of each other. Has karaoke become the new Starbucks? In Berkeley, that’s a yes.

We bet the respective owners of Touch Karaoke and Sushi Minami must’ve flipped a bitch when they found out their luck, but at least the manager for Sushi Minami, Keith Kanehara, feels his karaoke-plus-food idea had a slight edge. And he makes a good point too:

“As soon as we sell alcohol, we’ll open the place … People won’t sing without beer.”

We’d have to agree. After all, the direct translation of karaoke is “drunken singing.” Right?
