Subject: RE: Throwing away the crutch....
What puzzles me is those singers (and I've seen it more than once) who appear to read every word, including the chorus, every time, from their sheet or file. I even knew someone who, after the verses had progressed to Page Two, kept on turning back to Page One to read the chorus. If the audience can manage to join in with the chorus without a crib-sheet, it's not unreasonable of them to expect the performer to do the same.
