Secondly, massive disrespect to the maker not trusting it to stay in tune for the duration of a gig. It was a running joke in my last band borrowing the guitarist's tuner just to find my Shuker was still in tune from the previous gig. He probably has decent eyesight. Most clip-on tuners are bright enough to be read at a metre or so distance. I can see mine fine and I wear spec's to read. Massive disrespect to the maker? Not really. Strings are metal. Not only that, they are a blend of different metals - core, winding, etc. Never heard of metals expanding/contracting due to temperature variation? As far as music stands go, as long as they are discreetly placed, they're fine in my opinion. I used to play in a function band. Our book had several hundred numbers in it. It just wasn't feasible to have them all in your head at all times. It's a different matter if you're a bunch of weekend warriors playing the same twenty songs each week.
