So,…the 39th season…this week will harken back to some great ukulele music..
And, specifically, to one of my favorite Uke players and teachers....Mr. (Dave) UkesterBrown!
UkesterBrown was very adamant about making sure that this was my idea… and it was! not just a sneaky way to get people to look at his uke site! I just really like his song choices, and his songsheets have helped me become a sillier dave!
PARAMETERS:
* your song must be from Ukesterbrown’s songsheet
* ukulele front and center, no overdubs...
* state in your clip that the recording is for the "39th season of the ukulele"
* multiple versions of the same song are OK, and encouraged! And inevitable! first post will count as entry unless otherwise stated, the more bonuses the better!
* one take, no overdubs
*For every bonus song, you name goes into the hat for the BONUS prize! A new puppy! ..no, just kidding! A Sparky’s Roadhouse Café T-Shirt!
JUDGING CRITERIA:
points awarded in the following criteria:
* Playing
* Singing
* Overall performance: (camera presence; personality; creative flair; x-factor etc...)
JUDGES: thesillydave, ruth (thesillydave’s wife) and…..Mr. Ukester brown! Yes! The real Ukester!
DEADLINE: 11:59 PM HAWAII TIME, SUNDAY Nov.18TH.
PRIZES:
1ST PLACE: 25.00 gift certificate from UU mechandise!
2ND PLACE: 20.00 Amazon gift card from Mr. UkesterBrown!
3RD PLACE: Snarktuner! And the bonus prize….a collectable, wearable, share-able Tshirt from my silly café!
The song sheets:

All of his songs have a video of him playing the song if you need to get an idea of how the song “could” be played… BUT…that’s not the point…to play it like he does…play it your way…any which way!
Have fun! Cheers!
