Good to see you in the flesh! I suspect you might be a karaoke singer -- as for me, I do very little singing at all, having vacated my position in the local superb chorus. But as to karaoke, I think it's terrific. Have a good friend who lives in the southern part of the state of Vermont who is a well-known karaoke singer, and whose services are, believe it or not, requested by people who run karaoke nights throughout southern Vermont. If it keeps you off the street, it's worthwhile.

HA HA HA! I am not a karaoke singer. I'm making a mockumentary about karaoke, which is a different exercise entirely. As a matter of fact, I had never even seen karaoke before starting this project!

It is an all-consuming avocation for some. The guy I know practices with a husband and wife team on a regular basis. They are something of recognizable celebrity in southern Vermont, and are often solicited by the DJs to come where the DJs are working and participate. I knew nothing about it either -- including the pronunciation of the word -- until I went to see this individual perform during a visit to Montréal. I thought he might run into trouble from the Francophones, but they applauded and also sang a great deal of what they sang in English.

Now, if I had the opportunity to do so, I would give you his e-mail so you could ask him about the life of the karaoke performer and the laborers they must undergo to be ready for their weekly appearances.

I would check in from time to time to see how your research is coming.
