Karaoke

Since originating in Japan during the early 1970s, karaoke has been bringing friends and family members together from all backgrounds and musical tastes. Today, karaoke machines can be found in living rooms, bars and restaurants—mind you, today's machines are a lot more user-friendly than they were 40 years ago. While karaoke units traditionally contain a music player (usually tape/CD/DVD) and 1 or 2 microphones, some models can play video that displays the lyrics to the songs on a screen while others have effects like reverb and echo. You can even find karaoke machines with USB ports/SD card slots for easy access to digital media files.
