It is my understanding that if your brothers join with the new members to perform then it would no longer be considered hazing as long as it is not mandatory. Your advisor is being very cautious because haziing can be defined as something that makes one uncomfortable and may be mandated or via pressure forced upon a person in a subserviant position. Get a group of brothers together and plan to perform and ask the pledges if they would like to join. Run this by your advisor. Good luck.
