They have tournaments everyday and if you've got what it takes they have a huge tournament at the end of the year to win prizes to amazing destinations like Hawaii or Vegas.

Starlight Lounge: Where Eugene's Secret Broadway Rejects Serenade You (And It's Weirdly Good)…read more Gave the Starlight Lounge a whirl last Sunday for their karaoke night. Expectations were set somewhere between "drunken caterwauling" and "mildly painful nostalgia." Color me... surprised! Let's cut to the chase: the *talent* here. Eugene, who knew? Several performers weren't just "good for karaoke," they were legitimately, bafflingly excellent. Like, "should probably be charging admission or at least bothering Broadway agents" levels. One individual in particular possessed the kind of voice that makes you wonder why they're belting show tunes in a dimly lit Eugene bar on a Friday and not, you know, on a stage where people pay actual money. It was impressively non-awful. Actually, scratch that. It was great. Shockingly so. Drinks? Perfectly serviceable. Major points for the extensive non-alcoholic menu. They seemed genuinely willing to de-booze pretty much anything on request, which is handy if you're the designated listener to Eugene's hidden musical theatre gems. Staff were friendly enough, didn't seem phased by the slightly goth-adjacent vibe the place cultivates. Points for atmosphere. The singer's area wins for comfort - actual couches you can sink into while contemplating the life choices that led that phenomenal voice. The DJ deserves a medal. Actively prowling the darker corners of the bar, gently coercing the shy into public performance? Effective. Almost concerningly so. They offer food (didn't try it, smelled... present), and there are the obligatory video gambling machines for those who enjoy losing money slightly more efficiently. Now, the rating. 3+ stars.*** Why not higher? Look, it's a solid experience. Friendly, talented, comfortable, good drinks (alcoholic or not). But it's the Starlight Lounge, not the Met. Manage expectations. It's a pleasantly nice hidden gem, truly. Emphasis on gem but also on hidden and possibly on the faint scent of... well, I didn't try the women's restroom this time. That particular adventure, and its potential to swiftly terminate an evening "May or may" not determine if one needs to head home cause she's unable to use a disgusting toilet) is reserved for my next visit. A critical data point, one might say. Overall- Surprisingly excellent karaoke talent (seriously), good drinks (booze-free options aplenty), comfy vibe, proactive DJ. Minus points for existential questions raised by the talent pool's location and the looming bathroom inspection. **3+ stars. Good job, guys. Keep it up! P.S: it was ass FREE less the drinks etc... SCORE! 3 out of 5 = Good Job Helping hands; improve and attract more customers. 1. Partner with Downtown Hotels: Drop off flyers/promo cards at hotel concierge desk highlighting your surprisingly Broadway-level karaoke and extensive mocktail menu - perfect for tourists looking for unique, non-club nightlife. 2. Advertise Themed Nights in "The Weekly": Run simple, recurring ads or event listings for specific karaoke nights (e.g., "Showtune Sundays," "80s Power Hour") in Eugene's free weekly paper - targets locals planning their week. 3. Leverage Social Media Snippets: Post short video clips (even just 15-30 seconds!) of your best singers (with permission!) on Instagram/Facebook; yes even facebook. Showcase the talent & vibe - proof beats description. 4. Promote Mocktails Specifically: Add a dedicated "Zero Proof Stars" section to your drink menu/online & mention it explicitly in ads. Eugene's health-conscious crowd will notice. 5. Offer a "First-Timer" Perk: Give a small discount on a well drink or mocktail to anyone the DJ recruits to sing for the first time. Lowers the barrier, rewards participation. Good luck & I have faith you will continue to make wonderful cherished memories.

If you think you might be interested I suggest you sign up for their newsletter to get first hand info on who is coming and when. Ordering on line is simple and we have had no issues with any purchases we have made. It's all been just great. If you like standup comedy, it's a must see.

I visited Olsen Run for my first live comedy show as an adult (that's for adults) and was pretty…read moresatisfied. I went the day after Christmas 2025 with my Dad. Their menu was above satisfactory. They had some unique options, amongst the standard. All were high quality. If you're into alcohol (my Dad and I don't have never drank alcohol, and will never) they seemed to be pretty popular in that field. It should be pretty easy to meet the stated from the get-go purchase minimum of two drinks, and two food items. Their waiters did fine, but they need to get more. I'm pretty sure the three main rows of tables, had one waiter for each row. I can only imagine how many they had for the rest of the seating areas. It had a typical bar atmosphere, slightly enhanced by some nicer tables and chairs. I'd say the inside overall didn't feel new or old, but also didn't feel rundown. It also had an intriguingly large yet intimate feel. I was a bit letdown by the crowd. It seemed as though most were here because it was something to do/somewhere to drink. There weren't "no laughs" but definitely not as many as I expected, and not as loud or hard as I expected. Overall, I was here to see and meet one of my favorite people ever. This club could've been average, and I'd have still had a great time. If I ever return, I'll reassess my thoughts and write a new review. (Or update this one...still a bit hazy on Yelp's new rules.) This club also crushed it considering it was the day after Christmas. I'd say if this is the closest location for you to see someone you LOVE, you should have a great time.
