With its nearly 10 years of existence and a loyal group of fans and supporters, the show is more a <strong>rock concert<\/strong> than a <strong>classic<\/strong> karaoke show. Hosted by the charismatic <strong>Rachel Arieff<\/strong>, that also performs during the show, in Anti-Karaoke you will be able to choose from a very long list of classic and modern <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">rock, pop, metal, heavy, punk, old school rap, and alternative<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> songs. You won\u2019t find the cheesy pop songs (and they\u2019re proud of it) and you can have a look at the catalogue on their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/antikaraoke\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">Facebook page<\/a> and even make requests. They\u2019re all high quality versions, not poor MIDI renditions. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Another peculiar thing that makes the show <strong>different<\/strong> is that you won\u2019t find the videos with the lyrics, like in traditional karaoke bars. You may read the lyrics from a photocopy in a music stand, but your focus should be on the <strong>audience<\/strong>, who will be devoted to you (no matter how you sing), which makes the whole show more like a <strong>real concert<\/strong>. There\u2019s also some costumes and accessories, like wigs, glasses, hats\u2026in case you want to accessorize your performance.<\/p>\n<h5 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Related_aricle_An_irreverent_rock_show_in_the_Anti-karaoke_with_Rachel_Arieff\"><\/span>Related aricle: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shbarcelona.com\/blog\/en\/anti-karaoke-rachel-arieff\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">An irreverent rock show in the Anti-karaoke with Rachel Arieff<\/a><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h5>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_host\"><\/span><strong>The host<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.shbarcelona.com\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/antikaraoke2.jpg\"><img class=\" size-medium wp-image-57198 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/www.shbarcelona.com\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/antikaraoke2-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"antikaraoke2\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" \/><\/a>One of the <strong>main attractions<\/strong> of the show, besides the performers, is the host: Rachel Arieff.
