You will not see Staff View from Audio tracks.

However, you could leave the MIDI track there to play along with the Audio track, just MUTE the MIDI or don't route it to a synth. As long as the Audio and MIDI stay at the same tempo, you should be able to read the MIDI notes as the Audio plays back in sync.

I think a better method would be to make the audio file and also PRINT sheet music from the MIDI tracks you need onto plain paper and view the paper while playing along with an mp3 file. That way you really don't need a computer on the gig, just an mp3 player hooked to the PA system and your book of pages.

If you must read off the laptop, consider storing the MIDI notation as .pdf files to read while you play along with mp3 audio files.
