Quote of the Moment – Pete Seeger: Not singing is a big mistake


I don’t have a citation for where Pete Seeger said this, but it’s wholly within his character and mission. Anyone got a cite?

A Tweet from @Area9Handbells: Pete Seeger got it right with the exception of one word – “sing.” We think he meant “ring.”

“The easiest way to avoid wrong notes is to never open your mouth and sing. What a mistake that would be.”

I’ve asked for a citation, for accuracy and to keep the anti-plagiarism and accuracy mavens happy, but don’t have one yet. Nor do I know to whom goes credit for the poster and photo. Can you help?
