The information is in the intro video but here's a summary for those like me who watch intro videos half way through the week. :nana:

Record songs or tunes for dancing. The subject or type of song doesn't matter, it's all in the rhythm. Your challenge is to make people want to get up and dance. It can be any type of dance, modern or old time, traditional or contemporary.

Instrumentals and original songs or tunes are welcome.

Usual Rules
a) Ukulele should be the main instrument but include other instruments if you wish.
b) Start and finish midnight Hawaii time on Sunday as usual so 8 days.
c) Multi tracking, plugging in etc. are all OK
d) Four song limit. I might ease up on this later in the week.

Well, two great starters there. A groovy one from Pabrizzer and a smoochy one from WGY. We just need all the in betweens now. :eek:ld::music:

I will just comment on individual entries on You Tube but will make general comments here at intervals.

And while I'm typing this, another smoochy one pops up.
