This is not that important (wow, there's an inspiring start to a thread!), but I've often wondered about the etiquette re duos/groups in a singaround.

If each person gets one song, then a duo should get two between them, and a group of three, three. So far, so straightforward.

But what if one person is the lead singer, and the other just accompanies them? That means the lead singer is actually singing twice as many songs as anyone else.

I once saw a trio at a singaround, where the leader, admittedly a talented singer and musician, performed 3 songs, with his friends providing minor accompaniment and joining in the choruses.

What if I take along 6 tambourine players to a session? Should I be given 7 songs in a row?

I'm only posing this question out of interest, not because I feel hard done by ... I don't have enough songs in my repertoire for more than my one per round! :-)
