Why use lyricue?

Posted Wed, 07/29/2009 - 10:05 by cjd

With Lyricue you are not restricted to setting everything up before the event as you can add, remove and change songs on the fly. You can edit a song while it is up on the screen and quickly show your changes (good for when you notice a misspelling or the singers decide to change the words on you) You can even type up notes directly to the screen or quickly display a bible verse at an instants notice.
