If you’re looking to depart from the standard night at the bar or club, you might want to check out karaoke, bowling, or as Nate Owens tried one recent uneventful night — both.

At Max Karaoke Studio, you and a group of friends (or an adventurous date) can bond over 80s songs and guilty pleasure tunes (Spice Girls anyone?). Actual vocal skills not required, though they’re strongly preferred if we’re in your group…just kidding.

Late night bowling may be for you if:
a. other people find your singing abysmal
OR
b. you like specialized footwear
OR
c. you just finished an intense karaoke session and aren’t ready to go home yet

It was reason C for Nate, who headed to Canoga Park Bowl to brush up on his ten-pin skills. Bowling isn’t the only pastime offered at Canoga — there’s a comedy club in back.

Of course, there’s only one reason you should try late night bowling and karaoke — it’s fun!
