Depends on the old-fashioned traditions in question (normal).
This.
For example, I love traditions at the holidays. Having a tree, decorating it almost 100% with ornaments that have been collected over a long period of time which are passed down the generations, having the traditional meal (with one new element usually each year)...
I also enjoy baking before the holidays... date filled cookies, rosettes, russian teacakes, gingerbread snaps, fruitcake...
I like traditions. It gives you a connection to the past. It's why Catholicism has always appealed to me more than other Christian sects... they place a much higher value on traditions, repetition, things that almost become mechanical (like kneeling before entering a pew row, doing the sign of the cross with holy water, etc).
I was never really big into the emotional exploitation of the fundie types.
