Thread Name: Singing when you can't hear yourself
Subject: RE: Singing when you can't hear yourself

"You can't cup your ear if you play an instrument to accompany yourself."
You don't need to if you have an instrument; not to stay in tune anyway, yo take your pitch from that.
Instruments are curate's-eggish when it comes to singing - fine (but often unnecessary) if they accompany the singing - intrusive when the singer follows the accompaniment .
