well i am an omniist and believe in absolutely every side of a situation. But I don't think a paying audience has the job. It is a market. They should be able to make informed decisions. You should have been told ahead of time what the rules were. The audience should be told if there is a job description that comes with paying $10 or $20. I personally don't mind words..I have to have them with me on papers that crummple and fall on the floor...but there is something about those tiny screens and people stopping the song to scroll down ...way way worse than paper. Just inform me of whatever the guidelines are and I will decide if it is worth my time and money. I won't go to an event dominated by the blue books for example. If I go somewhere, like a camp, where I know they will be, I have to know there are going to be alternate rooms etc. for the evening sessions..what happens during the day is OK with me whatever form it takes. It's not the technology that puts me off about tablets etc..I don't care if people use kareoke screens or drive in movie screens or teleprompters..it is the size of them and people squinting to read them and stopping and starting the song. Once a song starts I want it to keep going..even though I am very guilty myself.
