Around here, there are jobs in dining rooms and corporate events that work fine with just a piano and/or guitar. Thing is, with an arranger, you can do a greater variety of gigs.
My challenge is to use arrangers when they "help the cause", but not use them as a crutch.
Good luck!

Russ I don't see an arranger as a crutch (meaning not playing?)..I use an arranger in piano mode most of the time...that is both hands playing..what more can we do? No crutch as I see it...maybe you mean something other than a crutch..
