Thanks everyone, for your replies. I knew you'd have lots of suggestions.
One of the best is to read something every day, or it'll all float away again...

'Dep' means to deputize - replace someone temporariliy. I've already done one performance of the show, and it went fine. It's a 50s/60s nostalgia show and I knew most of the songs anyway. What was worrying me was that it was literally non-stop fifties for an hour, then non-stop sixties for another hour. Really NON-stop - no time to let go of the guitar, even to turn the page. I just had a list of the numbers and their keys in front of me - they all just segued into each other!
