Our band chose the name "The Foggy Memory Boys" so we can get away with things like forgotten lyrics and other screw-ups. It also excuses the use of stands.

Thought I might throw this out there. The new group I’m in is having a little trouble remembering lyrics to our tunes at this stage, and we’ve got a performance on Sat night. Because we’re only doing up to six tunes, I suggested we shouldn’t have a music stand in sight. I think it looks more professional not to have a stand and you should know your music. Right or not so? Perhaps if we were doing several sets it might be a different story. I noticed a photo of EC and Co. on his recent tour with music stands on stage. It’s obviously acceptable to do this and I wonder if that was for a full show which is what it looked like. Any opinion or rule of thumb you guys go by?
