For brunch, I an iced lavender latte and the good morning sunshine. My coffee and food were delicious. The good morning sunshine had a bit of everything. After brunch we hung around and played a game for a bit. Only complaint was that they sat a family with little kids next to us and they were pretty loud. Parking in this area was a bit confusing, but tims is a cool place and they do bingo on Sunday's so I def want to go back for that!

Impossible to write about Tim's without talking about the fabulous retro design. So fun. I've…read morebecome such a fan of their brunch the last year or so. Sometimes with a DJ sometimes without, the drinks are great and OMG right now I'm in love with the Shell Ya Benny. Eggs Benedict with crab, and I'm super picky about hollandaise. And the little dish of free donut holes that they give you at the beginning it always yum. Our server this weekend was the lovely and attentive Raven. Now fair warning - the drinks are good. For serious! so it's entirely possible/probable that whatever your plans were for the day will be waylaid if you have more than two or three. ;) so plan accordingly.

I was greeted by the smell of coffee but not so much by a greater . As a first time visitor it would have been nice to have someone there to tell you where to go. So, i just followed the others and found my way to the theater where service was. The congregation is young and diverse, the music is good and the lesson was on spot. Pros: great service and unique location Cons : parking in the loop is always terrible They do communion, offering, and prayer all at once so there is a thrall if people lining up to get to the front. I was in the back and it takes over 10 min it's a bit confusing . I definitely plan to return and try the 9 am service -maybe less chaos

For years Shaggy was at Cotters, which was our dive of choice, not under new managment.. well lets just say it sucks, due to new managment and new karaoke company. I'm excited that Shaggy will now be at Melvin's Brewing in Eureka MO every Wednesday from 6-9pm.. those are hours I can get behind!! Shaggy is also available to hire for private events.

**Main location - Cotter's Sports Bar & Karaoke Lounge**…read more There are several factors involved in good public-forum karaoke: 1) Large and diverse music selection 2) Great sound system 3) Logical order of singers (no random cuts, no skipping, no forgetting) 4) Focus on karaoke (low downtime between singers, low filler songs) 5) Solid stage set-up 6) Energetic crowd and singers 7) X-Factors (day of the week, event type, etc.) Of these factors, the Karaoke DJ (aka KJ) has a direct control over numbers 1-4. The others are frankly the product of location, marketing, and hype. The best part about Shaggy Sounds is that no matter what location (my favorite is Cotter's), no matter what type of crowd, no matter how energetic or mellow of a night it is, you are guaranteed a fantastic experience with those things directly in the KJ's control: Massive library of music? CHECK. The biggest books of anyone and that's literally LESS THAN HALF of the songs. Don't see a song you want to sing in the book? Just go up and ask and there is a good chance it's in the computer system. Shaggy is very accommodating and willing to search through his library. Don't be shy! Great sound system? CHECK. Depending on the bar's vibe, the karaoke can be front-and-center (which is the case with all the locations Shaggy hosts at) or background filler (*cough* Double D's *cough*). If you like bars where karaoke is background noise, maybe Shaggy-hosted events aren't for you. But if you like to actually sing and listen to others sing, you'll love it! High-quality speakers, high-quality mics, solid sound checks to balance volumes and make adjustments from singer to singer if needed... you get the picture. Logical order of singers? CHECK. The most annoying thing (at least for me) that can happen at karaoke is watching an unorganized KJ forget the order, lose song selections, and randomly let people skip in the order because of connections/friendship. This is not an issue with Shaggy KJs as their song-selection set-up is done on computer. They enter in your name with a song title within the order, and that's your placement in the rotation for the rest of the night. No shuffling of little pieces of paper, no losing them to the floor, no priority passing (unless you tip, which of course make sense and I would never fault a KJ for letting someone jump in line in those situations...you gotta make that money). Focus on karaoke? CHECK CHECK CHECK. Shaggy events are all about having fun singing. Songs are literally back-to-back as they are totally focused and not dilly-dallying. The only time you hear filler songs is if there aren't that many singers and sign-ups, and it's usually only at the beginning of the night. If there are a lot of sign-ups, there won't even be filler songs at the end of the rotation. It will be straight into the next round. True end-to-end karaoke! There are a lot of options for karaoke in St. Louis. You'd be remiss if you didn't try one of Shaggy's weekly nights. Go and have fun!
