@bigfatuglypig33 There are others who use song sheets, think Shaun Ryder (Happy Mondays) (Correct if wrong) uses sheets taped to the floor. Think they might just have difficulty remembering lyrics.

Paul likes his jackets far too heavy for the occasion.

The Beautiful South are great. But, in a lot of their live clips on KZbin, Paul is singing from a song sheet. Does anyone know why? Didn't he write these songs?

I've seen them live many, many times and they always have this. He's wrote a LOT of songs, and as they are lyrically detailed, not just a repeat of the same chorus, I guess he just wants to be sure :)
