NDC Party - Guitaraoke with The Linebreakers
Grab a drink, let your hair down, and join NDC's favourite rock'n'roll party band for a set of classic pop, rock and disco tunes with a technology twist. You'll laugh, you'll sing... you might even see some developers dancing.
Guitaraoke: "It's like a cross between an open mic night and Guitar Hero!" Choose from our song list and take the stage to sing, play guitar or play bass live with our house band. Instruments, words, music and video all provided - all you gotta do is get up and rock out!
