What speed is the drive? 5400 RPM or 7200 RPM? If it is the slower then that can also be a factor. Also is your USB 1.0 or 2.0? Unfortunately you can't change that but it also can be a factor as USB 2.0 is faster.
Since both Lyrics and audio stop and restart at the same time then it really sounds like a delay in reading the data from the drive.

I ran defrag, the drive is a 7200 RPM usb 2.0. I have the drive backed up twice (2 different externals). Since the frequency of this is like every 8 or 9 shows, its hard to tell if the adjustements I make are doing any  good. I am going to buy another external to take with me and run this one till the problem stops a show. I may play with the cache and see what happens.
Thank you and everyone else for there input.
