Just heard on TV that rock legends AC/DC who opened the Grammys last night used a teleprompter because they couldn't remember their own lyrics.

There's not much to get excited about here. A shit load of reputable performers use teleprompters for any number of reasons.
If I had to take a stab at why AC/DC used them during last night's performance, if they don't use them all the time, it would be to ensure a good performance with truncated arrangements they aren't accustomed to performing. I've been in a situation where I wish I had a teleprompter, not to know the lyric, but to know where the fuck I was in the song. I recall playing bass and letting my mind wander only to realize that we were coming out of a chorus. The next words to myself were "Fucking hell, where are we?" Verse, solo, bridge?" I'll assume it's more of a crutch than anything and personally don't care as long as I get a good show.  RE: I'M ON THE HIGHWAY TO the retirement home.

I remember watching the making of Guitar Hero: Metallica and seeing Lars struggle with the drum parts. A little bit of my world was shattered, but I was also already at the age where I forgot more of my own songs than I remembered. So I sorta get it.
I can't remember where this verse is from, I think it got removed from canon:
"I don't hang around with mostly men because I'm gay. It's because men are better than women. Better trained, better equipped...better. Just better! I'm not gay." For context, this is the previous verse: "Hi Jesus" -robvalue   (February 9, 2015 at 4:55 pm)Exian Wrote: I remember watching the making of Guitar Hero: Metallica and seeing Lars struggle with the drum parts.

It's such a running gag that LU is supposed to be a lousy drummer that sometimes I wonder whether they are just mocking the stereotype

They are old, not exactly Beiber or Swift now. I think the real reason is that after you write so many who can remember everything. I have written almost 500 poems. I cant recite them all.
