I always love vocal cues the most.

I dare not use these as our singer often sings verses in a different order....
I have been known to suffer losing my way but have made a mental note of the number of verses and choruses or other sections in a song.
We have a song which has a rest section after each chorus but each of these rest sections is a different length - I just remember it by telling myself it's rest, long rest, extra long rest and mentally tick them off as we progress.
I try to be conscious of which verse or which chorus I am in - many choruses are a different length from the one before or the one after so I build a mental map of each song and tick the sections off in my mind as I go.
If I do start thinking about something else (normally a pretty girl in the audience or whether there is somenthing wrong with my signal chain!!) things can get rather hit or miss but normally the checklist pops back into mind just in time..
