As to equipment related to your performance, such as a laptop, that can be distracting or visually obtrusive to the audience, you must decide if there is a location that works both for you that minimizes the negative impact on them.

== Voice: The only instrument you must learn formally ==

Some people can just play an instrument inherently and never go beyond a couple of basic lessons, if that. If, however, you sing, whether by necessity, because you're told you have the voice of an angel, be it you may be a natural, it doesn't matter. The voice is the only instrument that you MUST absolutely, positively learn how to use properly for sure. A simple statistic: About 90% of professional singers who do not take voice lessons eventually badly strain or damage their vocal chords to the point where they must stop singing, at least temporarily. About 99% of those who do take voice lessons do not. No matter how good you are, the right voice training will also improve your singing and allow you to really do it professionally. You'll be good for the long haul.
