Karaoke Rockstar acrylic on cardboard

Leroy comes in like once a month, once every other month. He does the Marty Robbins songs. Now, get this. He comes in full cowboy regalia -including a fucking revolver in a holster. He always insists on going first. Only, he really believes he's Marty Robbins; at the end of the song, when Marty Robbins talks about being gunned down, he sings like it's the last breath he'll ever take, and then he falls out. Right there on the floor in front of the karaoke screen. Everyone who wants to sing after that has to move around him. At the end of the night, he gets up, has a shot of whiskey, and leaves. We don't see him again for another couple of months. It's been like that for as long as I can remember.
