Gringo's is the place to be on friday nights in North Adams, as from 9pm to 1am the restaurant transforms itself into a Karaoke bar.
Whiskey Lullaby, Picture, 22 cents... finish night with piano man around 1am
interesting dynamic as North Adams townies sing almost only country and Williams kids come in and do 90's rock
