Hiya all, Been away for a while cos real life can do that sometimes but always had a uke in hand... Anyway I broke a cardinal rule of mine...normally I research ukes like mad before purchasing but the other week was at a drum shop with a few mates ( after all, who would expect them selling...

Hiya, Just browsing the old Evil=Bay and this is a must see... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Walking-Cane-Concert-Ukulele-Direct-Artist-Free-3-day-Shipping-/320851239775?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4ab439635f#ht_1038wt_1396 Comments folks... Chris I know the uke can be an emotional support...

WOW what a great vocal!!! Cheered me up, Chris

Ok I will come clean. My unnatural pessimism could be because I am getting over a cold, and we all know how you feel then but, I'm aware that many here are well versed in music theory and as I've stated in other threads I'm starting to dabble down that road. I drill myself in g cleff and now...

Hi all, As a uke player for a few years I'm considering learning more music theory...I Have a few books and am ploughing through them slowly but would prefer an interactive software program I could use to learn. Anyone have any experience of them, and any recommendations, Chris It may be...

Hiya, Using Sony Vegas and just discovered the idea of masking, cutting the outline of myself playing the uke out and placing it in another vid. However we obviously move when playing and the mask stays in the same original outline and does not move when my head moves. I have read you can...

Well I'm off work for a few days, and the uke riff I was practicing wasn't going well... I got to the BBC Dr Who site and downloaded the free Gunpowder plot game. It was just like playing in your own episode of Dr Who. For those who don't mind the old point and click adventure titles (I love...

I must confess to suffering a bit of Koaloha angst over the last few months! When I first got my Koaloha tenor it sang like a beauty! Of course the factory default action was a bit high so I had a go at the bridge, and very gradually over time found the action that suited...Aprox a medium...

Hiya, Extending my knowledge of barre chords and have come across the the G barre played with the high G one step down...e.g 1343 tried barring with first finger but find the g shape difficult, and wondered how you guys pull this one off. I normally use 5343 but would love to be able tu...

Are there any plans to amalgamate these programs (VIP and UUU, sorry I missed the extra U in the heading and cannot edit it lol!) into one possible subscription offer and is all the stuff (streaming vids etc) in UU archived so that if members are not available for the stuff they can access them...

I love this book and use it as part of my practice....Hard to judge as I don't religiously practice these songs every day and sometimes only give a song the one over before my playtime in practice! And in reality, why should we....the reward of playing and memorizing them deserves...
