Re: Police Dog Blues (uke version) (4 replies, posted in My local band and me)
Grah1 ...... thanks for that. Some great picking going on there by the sounds. He is good, and it sounded great with the guitar and drums. This is on my to do list .......... sit down and practice, practice, practice picking. I haven`t given picking enough time, i think i am a bit to impatient, i start singing then oh to heck with it and revert back to strumming lol

Re: June 2016 Featured Song - After the Goldrush - Neil Young (74 replies, posted in Featured Song of the Month)
Ok I have put my attempt up and i stress attempt!! Ukulele as usual for me and vocals definitely not the best on this song for me, i probably should have transposed the chords more suited to my voice. Made an oops at the end as well, said closen actually instead of chosen, tongue tied ;P

Re: Cloak of invisibility (12 replies, posted in Songwriting)
Hmmmm this is one of those thought provoking songs. I definitely think older people can be over looked, forgotten, not even acknowledged, making them very much invisible. Some of them with years of experience, expertise, knowledge of many things in life, only to die with them. Fortunately if we look hard enough, there are some who are very much loved, cherished and appreciated .......... it would be wonderful if this was the norm!

Re: Need Uke Players Input (13 replies, posted in Other string instruments)
Hi Dirty Ed,
I would suggest for your granddaughter a nice Kala for around that price, you can get a Kala in a normal size or a thin travel size..
Another good brand for ukulele is Lanikai, (they make a nice tenor too if you wanted to go to a bigger ukulele).
Personally i play mostly soprano or concert size ukulele`s, concert size being my favourite size.
STRINGS: Often though as well as a good ukulele to begin with, the main thing is getting decent strings put on.......Aquila strings are excellent for ukulele`s.
