I stayed in Cedar City for three primary reasons. 1) I knew where it was 2) The hotels are really cheap 3) It's how you get to Bryce. After checking into my very cheap and pretty sketchy motel I needed to find something to do. Sitting in that hotel room all night was not my idea of a good time. I had asked the man at the front desk about any nightlife around but he gave me bad directions so I ended up wandering down Main St. A little further down then I normally would've gone I saw what looked like a bar (even though the sign was half gone). A flipped a U-turn and pulled into the parking lot of The Playhouse.
I walked inside an glanced around. It wasn't very crowded but they had pool tables and low and behold it was karaoke night. Sweet! After paying for my membership ($4 since it's Utah and all bars are private clubs) and ordering a Coors Light (Yes, I drank a Coors Light. I know it's a shock to everyone but they didn't even have wine) I went over to the karaoke lounge. There was a table in the middle decorated with balloons for a birthday. At the table were three women, two in their 50's and one in her 40's. Within 10 minutes The Glitter Girls (as they refer to themselves) had invited me to join their little soiree.
Sharing a common love of karaoke Cynthia, Emi, Carla and I sang the night away. Emi was originally from Salt Lake City but decided to move to Cedar City to get away from the City Crowds. Carla is a 40 yr old virgin. (She says the movie is after her life.) Cynthia was laid off from her job but working for her boss for free because he needs the help and she has the time. They do great three part harmony.
As I was sitting there singing all my favorite tunes, a thought flashed through my head. My life is awesome and I am having so much fun. So thank you Glitter Girls making it a special Saturday night in Cedar City.
