9 minutesLong live Mel-O-Dee, which has been around since the ‘60s. With so much in a name at this karaoke go-to, the veteran staple keeps the music alive and the adrenaline pumping in quiet El Cerrito Plaza. Weekends here brighten up with multi-colored lights and welcoming regulars who rock the mic and support newbies.
