The 1974 movie, "Buster and Billie" wasn't a big block buster by any means, and has become a bit of cult classic amongst those that saw and remember it. Lost for several years, it was recently found and reissued on Blu-Ray. Hoyt Axton wrote and performed the theme song for the movie, and did a...

WHOO HOO! Guess what arrived in yesterday's mail? I am thrilled, Sara and thanks so much again for your wonderful Season. I wasn't sure which ukulele I would put it on, but my mahogany bari "demanded" it because it complimented its rich brown colors so nicely! Can't argue with your...

SOTU 230 INTRODUCTION ANNOUNCEMENT: My three favorite singer songwriters all have their roots in the folk songs and ballads of the 60's. To help me celebrate this week of my birthday, I would be thrilled to hear as many Seasonista versions of their songs as possible as long as your attention...

Are you on the participants list? Looks like the SOTU 218 Party is drawing to an end, and I need to get ready to draw some names out of one of my hats in less than 2 days! Excluding my 2 videos and 1 that was deleted by its submitter, I believe there have so far been 74 videos brought to the...

Well, it ain't a rat, but close enough! Are you familiar with the Southeast Ukers group? Love their logo, and your Krabbers Kover! Now I'm wondering why no one has brought "Dead Skunk" to the party? Hmmm, not a good fit for Option 1, but certainly should fit 2 or 3! Thanks Mark, for...

Thanks Mark! I did it first as what is called a cold-cast bronze, then switched to painting them:

This being the first time I have hosted a Season, I would like to make this an opportunity to introduce myself, and to learn a bit more about each of you. I am now retired and trying hard to learn the “Aloha Spirit” of the ukulele, but most of my life has centered around wildlife. I have had...

Thanks for such a quick reply Lynda. Here it is with the text I've added for the campsite flag I want to have made. I've also sent a PM to lelouden regarding how to get this onto a t-shirt or coffee mug, etc. through the Zazzle SOTU store she has set up. Check it out, and what do you think?

I've converted a lot of songsheets to pdf file format so that I can easily view them from our Ipad or Ipod and am enjoying the many pluses of viewing the songsheets on a mobile device rather than a cumbersome 3 ring binder. I would now like to reformat the page size to permit continuous auto...

Has anyone figured out how to do the key intro riff to John Fogerty's "Up Around The Bend? I'm playing the song in the key of D and believe that the intro notes are keyed around the second position D chord (7655), especially the d note on the 1st string. Can anyone help?

I am still very new to all of this stuff (ukes, music, the uu forum, guitarpro 6, tabbing, etc.) so I was reluctant to just go ahead and do it without first getting some feedback. Hopefully, this is the most appropriate Forum to seek feedback on this topic. Is anyone else interested in...

I would like to make some of my own practice sheets ala Uncle Rod's suggested process in his 2011 revised Free Songbook. Does anyone know of a free available file of good chord diagrams that can be pasted into my word processing software? I found where someone had once posted such a file of...

I tried the guitar several times over the years but never seemed to get beyond learning a few chords. Started with a Lanakai ukulele this June and quickly acquired UAS. Just received my first solid wood uke last week and am thrilled. I can't believe how much fun I am having with 2 less...

There is a favorite song I would like to be able to strum play for my grand children. It is Pet Parade by Hoyt Axton: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RdankoiuWts With my wife's help I was able to pick out and tab the notes, but I am having a hard time determining which chords to use and...
