Well done, sir! Thank you for posting.

 

[Bill Sheehan]

Awesome, John! Moves along really nicely!

 

[DuckyI]

I really enjoyed this, thanks!

 

[Ziret]

Good song! Nice rendition. Thanks, John

Thanks Bill, might be a good one for your solo gigs...nothing like a 3-chord wonder!

 

[Ukecaster]

Thanks Scruggs, Ducky, Bill and Ziret. It was a fun song to learn and add to my set list, if there were any gigs 😀

You bet! There are quite a few nice 3-chord wonders out there!

...and might there be a gig or two on the horizon...?

Not sure, but I'd like to. Haven't had any gigs since leaving behind my guitars and and band a few years ago, due to hand issues. Strictly ukes ever since, but I don't see any ukes being gigged around here.

So... you'd be offering something that people don't get to see a lot! Just a thought, John-- if you assembled maybe 10 of your favorite songs, featuring just your uke and your voice (maybe use a small PA so that you don't feel you have to over-play or over-sing), that would be plenty for an appearance at a retirement or memory care facility. By the time you visit with the folks a little bit in between songs, you'll have filled a 45-minute time slot, which tends to be about right for that kind of outing. I can almost guarantee they'll want you to come back.

 

[Ukecaster]

Yeah, I should probably try that...before I need to move in there! 😀

Hahahahaha! The house band!

 

[EDW]

Yeah, I should probably try that...before I need to move in there! 😀

It may give you an in!

Awesome and honest rendition! Star-counting was such a wonderful euphemism that's likely forgotten

What a beautiful rendition. You could have made the Everly Brothers a trio.
