I never liked Keith Urban. Don't care for his music, his looks, nor his personality.
That video does not change my mind.
I feel that this is all evidence of why the ukulele is constantly diminished and laughed at by those that are ignorant and content to parrot the obsolete stereotypes.
While I do admire his musicianship and enjoy listening to him perform, and he looks just fine to me as well, though I've never thought about it much (and a glance at my profile picture will let you know that I shouldn't be criticising how anyone looks), I did not appreciate the attitude of Keith nor the other guitarist in the video towards the ukulele.
Why try flogging ukes by laughing at them and making fun of them? His sales pitch seemed to be, "If you want an instrument that's really easy to play without much effort, buy my ukulele."
