Deach blessed me with 2 TV Pal plastic ukuleles after I broke mine while playing Violent Femmes. Which means I have an extra. Which means that it's time for a contest!!!
What you have to do: Interpret a song from the 1980's.
Rules:
If you have an ukulele, you must use it. BUT, if you don't have an ukulele yet, you can still participate! Sing a capella. Do a poetry reading of your favorite 80's song. Or act it out. If you use other instruments, they must accompany an ukulele. (Does that make sense?) You can enter as many times as you'd like!
Post the video(s) on YouTube and then post a link to the video in this thread. You will be judged by how clever (EDIT: To clarify, by "clever" I mean how original your take on the song is) your video is, as judged by me.
Deadline: Saturday, February 28, 12 midnight Eastern. Winner will be announced the first week in March.
