Saw a youtube video with the Ukulele Orchestra of GB - fell in love with the music and ordered a ukulele. Played the violin in junior high some 50 plus years ago (yep, I'm over 60). Wish me luck.

Heya! I love the Ukulele Orchestra!! They are amazing. I need to hoist myself over to Europe to see them before I die. It's gonna happen!

Welcome to the form, Im in my 50's… "years young" (lol) but somebody around here must know my mother in law given she refers to me as the old fart from time to time.

Welcome from another old fart (over 70). Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain is great. Lots of great, old, vintage ukes being played by members of that group.

It's great to learn something new and it helps to actually have the time to do it!

Thank you all for the warm welcome. I hope to retire in October and hope to be able to play a few favorite songs from John Denver.
