Ooh, I might be taking a nice trip on the Staten Island Ferry one of these days. I should take my uke along and entertain all the tourists! I never thought the outer boroughs would have any more than we have here, so it didn't occur to me to even look. This is exciting!
For music, there's also that kinda weird-looking music store that I think is on 50th and Broadway. You know what I'm talking about? With all the campy figurines and broadway stuff. I have found some uke books there, though nothing you couldn't order on the internet. They don't have equipment or anything though.
Maybe we should start our own uke store! My super told me that they have a studio in my building that just opened up for $1800... So yeah, I'm sure we could afford to open a store if we have a bakesale or something
