thank you, that all helps tremendously.I know that songs that don't have a story are harder to commit to memory, Raglan Road, my current bugbear doesn't as such, neither does Lay Down Sally which I also have trouble with.I have problems with crib-sheets if it's a two hour set, too many bits of paper to juggle and learning things either upside down or by the couplets joining verses is a great idea which I will use in future, but these are songs that, supposedly, I already know.Perhaps an extended period in the NYCFTTS, what do you reckon?
