I don't see a problem with it. There is really no difference other than the clapping and cheering. But that's all worship...

There's is a major difference with a Holy Ghost filled Person preaching than a Charismatic. I keep silent with my Amens until I know that it is biblically sound, if it's not I will keep my peace. Sometimes people let excitement and adrenaline get the best of them, sad to say. Even when my Pastor is wrong, I will not say Amen, I will keep my peace and talk to him after the end of the service. But I don't like using Charismatic, sounds to much of a Nicolaitan Name.

Charismatic is an umbrella term used to describe those Christians who believe that the manifestations of the Holy Spirit seen in the first century Christian Church, such as miracles, prophecy.

I like to be in charismatic church, but sometimes there can be kind of controlling spirit over there not in all churches,kind of arrogance. That's just what I've experienced lately. But have to think, they are just some individuals. So if the Son sets you free,you will be free indeed. John 8:36It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm,then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery. Gal. 5:1

Have you been to a Pentecostal church?

they usually scare me
I was like that when I was little.Now I'm happy every time I'm around a person who prays in tongues. The Holy Ghost brings people together.
