[Dixielandjazz] An observation

[GWW174 at aol.com]

Not strictly jazz but did anyone see the TV Broadcast with live musicians at 
the 'official lighting ceremony' of the Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree????
 
They did NOT have music stands...holding music/charts... ... instead there 
were computer monitors - assume which displayed the charts... turned pages... 
etc.  Now all we need is the 'bouncing ball' to mark the spot where everyone is 
supposed to be playing.
 
Anyone have any experience with this..... frankly it may be a good functional 
idea... each part can be displayed on that 'sections' monitors.... strings. 
brass.. rhythm..etc...
 
It's like a musucian's teleprompter of sorts...

PS... I apologize for the post if this is common knowledge to you 'old-timer, 
seasoned pros"....
