Forget karaoke. Why sing along to an "empty orchestra" (which is what karaoke means in Japanese) when you could be the star -- center stage -- fronting your own live band? I am sure that many people who have perfected their "empty" performances must have dreamed of taking it a step further.

And if that is the case, then 08:30 Music Simulation Bar is the answer to your dreams. Every night a spacious, fully equipped stage lies in wait with resident musicians on hand, ready to back you live as you sing.

But, it gets better. If you're sick of playing air guitar or drumming on table tops, then you are in for a big treat. Each instrument in the band -- lead guitar, rhythm guitar, bass, drums and keyboards -- is also up for grabs. In fact, there would be nothing to stop a whole band from walking in and taking over.
