snail ....its okay. you don't need anyone's permission to sing anything. its what our dad's fought hitler about - amongst other things.

you can even pick your own tradition.
tradition comes from latin ; traditio = I hand over.
look with honesty at what has been handed over to you. the songs you sang as a child, the songs your parents sang, the songs you used to celebrate love death, the whole shooting match.

that's what was handed to you its a great responsibility - don't hand it over to some ideologue who can't see past the end of next weeks session.
