[musictlk] knowing the set list for a gig.

[Marion & Martin]

Robert,
    I think using Braille is an excellent way to handle this! It will help 
you, as well as let others see how useful Braille can be in such a 
situation.
    I use Braille to keep my song list during shows. I play an acoustic 
guitar and use rubber cement to attach the song list to the top of my 
guitar. Rubber cement peels off very easily and causes no damage to the 
finish. HTH!

Fraternally yours,
Marion Gwizdala
