First time posting here! I got this from another listserve I subscribe to, and the main reason I am posting this is because they got the law amended!
--------- Townspeople Turned On to Naked Karaoke -----------
BERLIN, Conn. - The townspeople of Berlin, Conn. will
finally be able to don only their birthday suits to partake
in "Naked Karaoke." Over a year ago, Marty St. Pierre, co-
owner of the Berlin Station Cafe, put up a sign advertising
"Naked Karaoke." "It was always a joke, nothing more than
that," St. Pierre told the New Britain (Conn.) Herald. How-
ever, 120 people took it seriously, and signed up to
participate. Soon, the town let St. Pierre know he could be
arrested for violation of a sexually oriented business
ordinance. Last month, the ordinance was amended, and now,
the people of Berlin can enjoy Naked Karaoke nights. Although
some feel that allowing people to sing naked in public is an
embarrassment for the town, St. Pierre counters, "It's a
completely voluntary activity."
