Ken From Hyde Park:

Maybe DJs at for-profit commercial stations have stipulations in their professional contracts that prohibit singing. Free form volunteer DJs can choose to sing or not as their whims take them, which is cool with me.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 7:44pm
Irene Trudel:

I love to sing! Singing is really a wonderful release, and can be playful too. Nothing wrong with it in moderation.

My singing, on a good day, would probably not qualify for a place on Dan Bodah's Vocal Fry program. Mercury Girls sound really fits the Hello Children vibe, I think. mercurygirls.bandcamp.com
