Flaws are alright - no creation can be more perfect than it's creator. As long are you are true to yourself and you try, I know you'll be fine and she'll have a great time.

As far as Karaoke, just search around online and read some reviews on the locations you find. Visiting the bar to get a sense of the vibe probably wouldn't hurt. In Portland, at least, I've found the atmosphere in more Karaoke bars is pretty accepting - you don't need to be a professional singer, you just need to try (and [try to] have fun).

I'm pullin' for ya, man.

<nods> Even if you don't really use it, it's nice to know you have some structure to fall back on.

Karaoke's pretty fun. But, then, I like singing (some songs) along with the radio. Of course, if you Do do it, you can always sing one of those songs that "everyone" likes to sing to (think "Bohemian Rhapsody", "Don't Stop Believing", etc.)
