First video...be gentle! Blister in the Sun

UkuleleThreads · Oct 10, 2011

Had a rough day, decided to learn a new song. I am not a singer by trade, but this was super fun, so here we go...be gentle, I bruise like a peach.

P.S. I got a text whilst recording, it was from Lisaxy424

Hey, real nice job Uke Threads. Really enjoyed that. Got real fond memories of the Violent Femmes, saw em a couple of times when they came to Hobart in the late 80's early 90's - Brian Ritchie now actually lives in Hobart and is in charge of the annual 'Mona Foma" arts festival down here. Your playing and singing sounded great and that is one real sweet uke. What kind is it?

Your uke seems to be backwards... also, it has too many strings

Nice Job!

This is my Lanikai Tenor 8-string, and yes, as Xtoph has pointed out, this all appears to be mirrored.

YAY to your first "official" video! The first time is always scary...then it just gets fun after that

P.S. I was just trying to add some additional percussive elements, OHHH-KAAAY!?

Nice job, man..... this record rocked my little 13 year old world, especially Briant Ritchie's bass playing. Enjoyed your version and that eight string sounds great!

It's true, I'm like a delicate desert flower. I have a doctor's note.

Love it!

Can I request 'Girl Trouble' for an encore?
