1. Threads like this are the reason

4. Oh Jeeze
My kid just told me she is needing a ukulele. She's moving to your neck of the woods for the fall semester... Is this the harbinger of her developing other odd European interests. I think there may be an accordion up in the attic that I may need to hide a little better.

6. Everyone needs an ukulele!
And there's an accordion here as well. Are you sure there wasn't some 'odd European interests' developing there even before your kid? Accordion in the attic? ;)

:hug:

8. On the other hand...

...this guy has done for the ukelele what Michael Hedges did for
the guitar, what Rufus Harley did for the bagpipes, what Victor
Wooten did for the bass guitar, and what Bela Fleck did for the
banjo.

Endure your way through the fantalk in the first minute and you're
in for a surprise (if you've never seen him before).

11. I can't even play this one. :(
But you make me wonder if there ever was a flea zoo with fleas playing tiny little ukuleles. Wouldn't that be awesome?! :rofl:

Here's one for you: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KmBaE7ozWow&feature=related

17. Get one!
And every field with pretty bugs is yours! I just strummed a little outside, and butterflies and birds appeared ... http://il.youtube.com/watch?v=ify42rjlT7M

And now I'm going to bed, a smile painted on my face. :)

15. You realize of course, that you've stumbled on the perfect band name.

CMW and Heidi on the ukes with Bunny on the banjo. I'd buy a ticket to see Hipster Peckerheads with a Ukulele. You bet I would! :thumbsup:

16. The Hipster Peckerheads With Ukuleles And A Banjo!
Tickets are cheap! And you're getting a free backstage pass! How great is this!

So, since Heidi and me actually have (unplayed, but tuned) ukuleles, Bunny needs now a banjo. ;)

Then, in a month or so, we do a big concert tour all over the world, called: "Oasis On Four Strings." We will so rock, I tell you!

19. Not only 'interesting mood,' but
THE MOOD. I still have to figure out how to play it, though. ;)
