Hello, my name is Damian. I just started playing around may of this year I guess. A friend of mine let me borrow a flea and I am hooked. As luck would have it my wife and I went to Hawaii for vacation and we were there during the big uke festival....the 47th annual I think. What a great time. Needless to say I brought back 6 ukes from the island. A couple for some kids I know and the rest for me. Only one was specific to the Islands. It was cheap too, but it is by far my favorite. I have so much to learn. Thanks for the add.
