Karaoke is a good one. I'll add trivia to that as far as bar things go. I'm impressed by people who do Karaoke. I think of myself as outgoing but that's another level to me.
Oh, and I just read your username. We've played the White Oak Music Hall if your name is a reference to Houston. Used to play Acadia back when it was open.
That's cool you've played White Oak. Cool venue with a lot of good bands coming through all the time.
Oh trivia is great as well! There are a few other things depending on inclination. Some of the local joints here do paint and sip, line dancing, salsa dancing, wine pairing potlucks, and a bunch of other activities. If you add in breweries or distilleries you can find even more stuff.
But I say that knowing bars aren't for everyone for a variety of reasons. Not every area has breweries and distilleries.
And yeah, karaoke is a different level of outgoing. I enjoy it in small doses and will fill in as the KDJ if someone needs me to, but doing that every week (or 3 times a week like some of these folks) is a bit much for me, and that's coming from a dude who has a hobby of playing music in bars.
