Hasn't that bylaw been common knowledge amongst Tube Challengers for years? If I recall correctly, there was even some debate about whether or not it should be permitted on a Full Network Challenge, with the conclusion that it is each Challenger's own decision to take, and that a ban would be unenforceable anyway.

That singing rule is designed to stop these busking twats who get on with a guitar, play a really bad song and then expect you to give them money as they walk past with a cup.
