I was not aware that Madcat was doing uke now. Man, I remember him from 40 years ago with New Heavenly Blue.

Thanks so much for this - takes me back quite a ways. I used to wait for fares in my cab at that exact train station.

It almost soothes the pain of Saturday's soul-crushing football defeat. Almost.

I'm looking forward to the Milwaukee uke fest. Then we are headed to Lambeau to see the Packers / Bears game on Thanksgiving Day .

See you all soon!
