I suppose when it comes down to it, whatever tools I need to convey a song the way I'm hearing it in my head I will use. The definition of karaoke struck me as interesting though. When my wife and I start playing out in nursing homes and such, having a means of projecting lyrics unto a large screen TV may help some of the seniors enjoy the show more. At the risk of sounding like I am back tracking on my "leave the Karaoke to the Karaoke bars" statement, for the most part I would probably resist anything that resembled a Karaoke show. I just want to play the music God gives me and hopefully it will serve to be an encouragement to someone. That's why my wife and I are getting geared up to visit nursing homes and possibly hospitals. They especially need to encouraged.
