This is way OT, won't blame anyone a bit if you want to tell me to go pound salt... but you're a creative bunch and we've struggled with this long enough. The situation: Rock band with over 4 hours of music... lots of lyrics. Frequent set changes, meaning that standard 3-ring-binder full of lyrics has to get re-arranged in order to step through a show. Lyrics MOSTLY memorized, but nice to have on stage as back-up for brainfart moments. The Idea: An eBook reader, like a Kindle or some such device, that can flip pages by touching the screen, placed on music stand. Lyrics all assembled in a Word doc, rendered in whatever format necessary to view on said device. Words appearing on screen large enough to be viewed without having to be too up-close-and-personal with the device. Anyone have experience with eBook readers like the Kindle, and is it possible to get your own file(s) onto such a device so that one could simply modify the files when the sets change, and place on the device for performances? Any other ideas? We continue to add songs and tweak the set list order, and it's making the vocalist insane having to keep her book up-to-date. Mine too. Fire up those creative minds and let me know what ideas you have! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology-Michael-Dinowitz/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:336125 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
