Bears? Bulls? No – it’s a Boar Market at Akdola Santaoke. What?!

It’s time for Santaoke – the annual Akdola holiday karaoke party where you get to dress up like Santa, Mrs. Claus, elves, reindeer, and other holiday-themed creatures – and this year we’re invading Wall Street (who says Wall Street’s dead?). Join us at the China Chalet (think Old New York, kitsch, and the entire place all to ourselves…) for the best damn holiday party you’ll attend all year.

And, as an added bonus, we will be debuting the new Akdola mascot (see photo). Yes, it’s a stuffed boar. He will be following in the well-hoofed footsteps of his predecessor, Deer Prudence. And he needs a name, so send us your suggestions! Special Mystery Prize for the person whose name we choose.

We’ll be at Santacon this Saturday doing some recruiting and pre-santaoke partying, so join us.

What: Santaoke
Where: China Chalet. 47 Broadway (near Wall St.) 212-943-4380
When: Friday, December 19th. 9pm-2am
Attire: Holiday madness

Once again, there will be FREE Peak Organic beer for those of you delivering Peak Performances throughout the night…

And remember: Santa LOVES karaoke!

xo,
Akdola

August Akdola Takes Corio By Storm

Last week, Akdola made its long-awaited comeback at its fabulous new venue, Corio.

The Hosts, "Ak" and "Dola," warmed up the crowd


KJ Skittles made its debut, with glowing reviews


Official Akdola photographers, Ray Olivares and Darren Kaminsky, worked their magic:


Our bartender showed his Akdola pride, with beer sponsor Peak Organic in the spotlight.



Special guest Georgio the Human Carpet took his post on the floor


And the ladies walked all over him...


Love and war was in the air amongst the couples


???

With a dash of some good old fashioned girl lovin'


And some fox-y affection


But the main event was on stage: Anya performed a hoola striptease - much to Richard's delight



Ellen mourned Prudence, but quickly moved on to the new taxidermy in town

And the show-stopping, hand-clapping, chest-beating Peak Performances raged on







And, as per the norm, an intoxicated frenzy swept up the party.

Sarah impersonated the Biclops




The hosts and KJs joined forces and let loose






While the crowd grinded the night away with a Shoop -


Shoop ba-doop


Shoop ba-doop


Shoop ba-doop ba-doop ba-doop


Until they collapsed in ectasy



And proclaimed VICTORY!


Thanks to all who joined the festivities. Akdola strikes again in October!

Akdola Karaoke Spreads Pantless Love!

The No Pants Valentine's Akdola rocked and shocked Fontana's like never before.

Here's a re-cap:

The KJ pumped out the sounds...



The Peak Moment pumped up the courage...


The revelers warmed up the crowd


And once the Akdola photographers set the precedent -
(Darren started the trend...

and Ray's briefs answered)


The other pants came off....


And off...


And off...


And OFF.


But the host kept them safe and sound.....while the chaos continued:

The pantless crowds rushed the stage



And Sean and James joined Ak to fill in for the missing Dola on Total Eclipse:



But there were some tender moments...




Zoe, the bartender, gave in to peer pressure:



The Biclops started out innocently...

Then dropped 'em and got down...


And finally just plain got some, lucky boy.



Jim celebrated his birthday:


(with Anya giving him the traditional arrow-to-the-ass birthday blast)


And Ellen ditched Ray to enjoy some special time with Deer Prudence:


Until our dear deer just couldn't hold up his antlers for another song.


Join "Akdola Karaoke" on Facebook to see more photos, meet other Akdola-ites, and stay informed about up-coming parties.

See you in April...but until then, keep your pants down and your voices high!
