Thread Name: Is it Ok to sing from a song book?
Subject: RE: Is it Ok to sing from a song book?
Quote from Mike Waterson, Jim - We don't do harmony, we sing in unison. It's just that occasionaly we all use different tunes. Maybe there was not as much work as you thought:-)

I just want to make clear that although I don't use a songbook and don't like the performance of people using them as much as those that don't - and remember I am talking PERFORMANCE here, not just singing - I am in no way dictationg that people should not use them Fine, use them, go ahead. Some people will think a little less of your performance but is that doesn't matter to you - why worry?

I hate the term folk nazi as well. Godwins law should be enforced and whoever first uses it in any thread should be banned form the Mudcat until they have shown their bum off Blackpool tower in atonement...

Cheers
