Thing is, if you have to tell everyone how good you are....you're probably NOT!
But, when I see a laptop on a bandstand and don't know the performer, I leave, PERIOD! DJ's and Karaoke? FORGET IT!
I don't look down on those who use whatever they use,
I guess it's all in the eye of both the performer and members of the audience.
I agree Russ..."

In my case, I don't have any exceptions.
The best players I know, are also quite humble, and have no need to stroke their own ego, or have any one else do it for them.
Case in point with me, was Oscar Peterson...I spent most of the day with the man, showing him how to get the most from a PSR-9000Pro, and he was one of the gentlest, and most humble people I have ever met...it felt like I always knew him.
In my job, I meet some very, very talented performers, and those with big egos are, fortunately, in the minority.
I'm much the same regarding seeing a single performer using laptop, Russ, and if they aren't actually playing during the performance, I leave.
I'm not a fan of Karaoke at anytime.
