a term used to describe the performance of the singers/performers when musical groups use a pre-recorded track and lip/instrument-sync on stage in front of the audience

An oilfield term used to describe a condition that does not need to be corrected right away. For instance, a minor mistake which can be corrected later is deemed "playbackable."
