If anyone has any pics of videos from Mike Dasilva's last night post them here please. Or if you just want to share your experience of the night, feel free to do that too. It was an awesome show and turn out. Thank you everybody for making the first official UU tour event a success.
 
Lemme start by sayin: man, I thought u guys were all a lot taller! I mean, I knew Aldrine was short...

Anyways, Ryan, shouldnt u guys be touring the city? I supposed to be a nice day. Get out there an brave the traffic!

Lookin forward to your Sunday night show
 
awesome times 1000

the show was so awesome that i'll have to see these guys perform again real soon. maybe sunday! haha.

it was great to meet the UU guys (who were not only nice, but super cool to hang out with). and also, great to meet some fellow UU members that i haven't met before. even met a couple of youtube uke players. awesome night, great music, beer, and good company! until next time, here are some photos. i don't have the best camera but it will do for now.

Oh and here's a video of Dom and Aldrine jamming after the show. x] Those two are simply amazing.

Anyone have suggestions on how to put the video up for everyone to see? It's gonna be waay too long to put up on YouTube or something. Or I guess I could split up every 10 mins since that's the limit on YT.. bleh, what do you guys think?
 
Thanks for putting on the show! My jjs at home were wondering why would anyone want to watch someone play ukulele for $20? (Or was it $15?? I paid Mike $20 and he didn't give me any change...) But, the show was priceless. Aldrine and Rayan played a bunch songs from the CD and a number of other songs, Dom and Aldrine jammed to Breezin, and they took some video for uke got mail. Russ, totally stumped Aldrine with his "What superpowers would you want to have?".

The small venue and getting to hang out with everyone made the night very special indeed. Now, I'm afraid to pick up my uke because I want to cherish the sounds of greatness and not listen to my own attempts at playing... :(

Oh, and Russ you're too much with your gold spray painted $10 uke! :biglaugh:

the smallness of the venue was great. there wasn't a bad seat in the house. and i got Aldrine to play my $10 POS. i think it has appreciated in value now!
 
yeah, i didnt get my change either, but I figured it was goin to a good cause (helpin fellow ukists stay afloat). too bad i was about 35 mins late tho
 
Wow! What a great night. It was really great to see everyone again and to meet the other UU members that I had not yet previously had the opportunity to meet in person. I think Mike was pleasantly surprised at the turnout and I think we did a great job of representing UU.

I was fortunate enough to have seen Aldrine play live before but it was extra special having Ryan there with him. As I mentioned, it was 100 times better in person than the UU open mics (which are always a blast).

Most of my pics are pretty much the same as what’s been posted so far but I have a couple good ones that I will post shortly.

I think the best thing is to just separate them into each song and upload them individually. More work but that's what I guess I would do unless someone else has a better mouse trap. I think I have 3, maybe 4 songs. I didn't get "heartbeat/dragon" and I would like to watch that one again.

I will get those pics off my camera and get them uploaded in a few.
 
whew - great fun guys. It was really nice meeting everyone, maybe next time we can all wear our screen-name T-shirts!

^^ cool vid! i got there around 8:40ish, so I missed quite a bit. When Aldrine kept asking for suggestions, I didnt wanna sound like a bafoon and ask for somethin that was already played.

Hopefully I'll make it nice and early tomo so I wont miss a thing!

Edit: BTW, Dom thought that I was an old guy... Wut the?

Sorry about that bro. Not sure why I thought that. Maybe I got you mixed up with someone on another forum or something. It's all good. Great to meet you and that Lanikai you have is a little monster.
