I've honestly found charisma to be nearly useless as a bard. Our mez/charm lasts 18 seconds max, and with very bad charisma (something in the 130s I believe) most of the time both of these will stick for full durations, unless a mob is within 1-2 levels of me in which case it will often break within the first few seconds if it breaks at all. If I had to do everything over I would put all of my starting stats into stam, and what little I had left into dex (song failures are fairly frequent, and dex is always good for procs).

You do realize the mezzes are all-or-nothing, right? There's no such thing as a partial-duration mez. Charisma has nothing to do with mezzes. How could you play a Bard as a main up to the mid-50's and not know this?
Anyways, Nalkin was right when he said to put all your points into stamina. If I were able to max my sta I'd probably have ~600 more HP than I do now (but that's mostly because my Sta is pathetically low), which is a pretty big deal if you ask me. At higher levels it really does make a difference. Who cares about missed notes? Just cast the song again.
