Hello there, I am in Australia and I play with the online Melbourne Ukulele Community. I really enjoy watching and listening to your songs there at the Austin Uke Soc. You are all so happy and really good players! Super Duper! Stay safe and keep well!
Oh how I wish I could play along side this fun dedicated group but I live hundreds of miles away in Ontario Canada. Please keep pumping out more great music.
For some unknown reason this video came up on my feed. I like the Beach Boys, so I opened up this video. I noticed it said "Ukulele" and thought, "Oh, I'll bet this is a lame joke of a video!" But I started it up thinking I'd listen for a few seconds and laugh at it. Funny thing though, I listened to the whole thing. Here was a large group of people having more fun than I'm having. I was enthralled to watch the joy on their faces. I really enjoyed the video. So here I am sitting humbled that I thought I was above their playing and instrument. I was schooled!
Thanks so much for your very thoughtful comment! And sincere thanks for being willing to give this video a chance. It's true that the ukulele is a misunderstood and underappreciated instrument. We take it seriously, making what we hope is wonderful music while having a fun time together as well. It was a genuine thrill to read that your initial expectations were exceeded. Thank you for sharing your thoughts!
Well done one and all. Much appreciated from the UK.
So happy you enjoyed it! Cheers!!
Hello from Brazil! Please, perform more musics from Bon Jovi! Keep going with this beautiful assembling!
