Yes. I will be there (until 9, loads of folks stay well past that- public karaoke is at 10 w Steve0 and man can this town SING). This Thursday. And the last Thursday of EVERY month thru November. It’s fun. It’s casual. It’s social. We are just grabbing a jar together. 18 years in. #inkdrinksTORONTO
