I posted a while back to say that I was thinking of trying to start a local ukulele club of some sort. Last night, I talked to some young folks who were about to play acoustic guitar at an open jam held at a brewpub we were at for dinner. I mentioned that I was thinking of starting a uke club, and they all expressed some interest. I got contact info for all of them. I'm still planning to make flyers and a Facebook group soon.
I've been kicking around some names... I live in a town called Montrose. There's a town about 20 miles away called Delta. The Uncompahgre River flows through both towns (it's a Ute Indian name), so this area is called The Uncompahgre Valley.
I've come up with:
1) "Montrose Ukulele Group", or "M.U.G." (handy if we meet at a coffee shop!).
2) "Montrose And Delta Ukulele Club" (or Society), or "M.A.D. Ukulele-or Ukers-or-whatever"....
3) "Uncompahgre Valley Uku'Lele Association" , or "U.V.U.L.A."
I kind of like #3 the best. But then, I've always thought "uvula" was one of the funniest words ever.
So which, if any, of these is best? Any other ideas? Should I even be trying to name a group that doesn't actually exist yet?
By the way, I have what I think is a great logo in mind if we go with "U.V.U.L.A.".
