I used to record all of mine and never used them except for the seldom stand up show and then never more than 2 or 3. I am first and foremost a player and fair singer but times are changing so I now use whatever it takes to get the job done. That means midi karoake tracks of which I play over top of or
anything else it takes to make my crowd happy. I now play every song even if tracks are playing. They are tools. Use them.
