karaoke bars

Amateur singing venues

Karaoke bars are establishments where patrons sing along to recorded instrumental tracks of popular songs, typically with lyrics displayed on a screen.

Some feature private rooms for groups; others have a stage where singers perform for the entire venue.

The atmosphere ranges from serious vocal showcases to cheerfully drunken entertainment: We ended up at a karaoke bar until 2 a.m.
