I think they key bit would be:

*An offensive action is defined as doing at least one of the following:
Attacking
Casting a damage-inflicting spell or scroll
Casting a spell or scroll that requires a magic/spell resistance check
Casting a spell or scroll that requires a saving throw

Correct. While bardsong could arguably be considered increasing other players’ damage, it does so indirectly. It is still that player doing the extra damage; the song just provides inspiration. Thus singing is NOT considered an offensive action. (There was another thread where this was confirmed by Druegar, but I’m too lazy to look for it.)

I’ve been told that my singing is pretty offensive.

Not even close to the damage caused by Mongo being the Bard.

Maybe I've blocked it out, but my recollection is that he wasn't all that bad!

You must have blocked it out... or are being too kind. Even Lori has asked me to please refrain from singing, especially 1001 bottles of beer on the wall

Several times I started combat with Bard"song" and the NPC in the room immediately said they were attacking the bard
