Subject: RE: Repertoire maintenance, what do you do ?
I don't know a good answer other than sitting down with the express purpose of refreshing the memory. I don't buy the age thing, other than to say that the brain, like every other part of your body needs exercise. But to show you how it goes, St. Pat's morning while my band and I were performing on a TV show, I had to sing "The Parting Glass" to a departing weatherman. I have probably sung that song......Oh, I don't know.......maybe a gazillion times in my life. I got started and forgot a verse. Go figure. I was able to cover and get it all in, but the lads will be a long time letting me forget that one.

All the best,

Mick
