 Out of Curiosity, are there any specific conventions about taping that the NW batch follows? I'd like to bring my little Fisher Price tape player, mostly because I want to *remember* what gets sung, so I can add them to my own repetoir of stuff I sing in the shower (not being *quite* ready to sing in front of the masses) And I usualy try to ask, unobtrusively, for the lyrics but sometimes it helps much more to have the tune too.
