Location: Sydney, Australia		I'm working on learning something and then trying to play it without looking at the music. One trick is to take my reading glasses off, so that a quick look at the music doesn't help, but I can still see it in my visual field and don't get nervous. Then I practice turned slightly away from it.

I don't know how people remember large set lists, they must spend a lot of time practising, or their memory is a lot better than mine (or both).

Tried that. Couldn't find my guitar.

I think it deminishes the performance.
Its hard enough to play & sing and read to it is just to much, at least for me.

Location: Upper Left USA		They are great to learn from and when sharing songs in a new group but other than that...

...they are addictive and keep you from being able to play without one.

Location: Capital District, NY, USA Minor Outlying Islands		I don't perform many songs at a time, My memory stick has limited capacity, and only delivers the lyrics on a"just in time" basis. Efficient yes, but every once in a while there's a jam up.
