Call it whatever you wish...perhaps "Karaoke" is the wrong term...but it is still singing over a backing track whilst not playing anything.

I do know that I wouldn't pay to see it.

OF course not but plenty of club owners would rather pay $200 to one person rather than $800 to four playing essentially the same music. They have no issue paying someone to get off the keyboard and walk around the room whilst the music plays on as long as their patrons are having a good time and spending money. Thats what really counts. Not some keyboard elitist's opinion of what should and should not be worthy of respect or "tacky".

I live in one of the most busy entertainment areas of the US for OMB and duos. Someone with an Arranger and Bose System gets a lot of calls.
