Live M50 sequencer

Hi All
New to this forum, so be kind!
Does anyone on here use the M50 sequencer live on stage? I'm considering starting a new duo project, which involves me singing and playing live on a Nord Stage2, a guitarist who also sings, and much of the song content (bass drums etc) sequenced on the M50. It's all in the 'good idea at the pub' stage, but it will take a lot of work arranging the tracks. In this respect, i'd be interested before I start, in anyone elses experiences. Are the drums convincing enough, does the overall mix have enough depth, is the automation reliable etc etc.
Be grateful for any input.
Cheers.
Tim

Never used the sequencer live onstage, but I have used it live in the studio. Here's a video from 2011 where the backing is coming from the M50. The guitar and lead vocal are live. The harmonies are being generated by a VoiceLive2 vocal effects pedal. You can be the judge as to whether the M50 is providing credible backing:

That sounds excellent! Thanks very much for that Andy. It was a great mix. You've got me thinking about vocal harmonies too. They sound great. Thanks again, fills me with a bit more confidence!
