I am still very new to playing the uke. I have very low self-confidence. (in all areas of my life, not just uke playing)
I joined our churches worship team with my daughter (she plays electric guitar). My uke does not have a pick up, and I refuse to have a mic put in front of it ... cause I don't think I play well enough.
The last Sunday we played there was a song we did that had a section of music only. Usually my uke is "drowned out" by the 2 accoustic guitars. But, this day one of the guitar players lost her pick and stopped playing, and I was no longer drowned out. On Monday someone called me to tell me how much they enjoyed the sound of my uke in that song, and that they thought I was doing a great job with it.
That was a good confidence booster for me. What has been a boost for you??
