Friday was our 1st "Daily Ukulele" show, and except for the fact that
Maintenance was out and the area was not set up, it went pretty well. I
stepped out front and listened at one point, and while we could sing louder,
the uke's sounded great.
Next month is our Arizona Show celebrating 100 years of statehood, and that
is the subject of our program. We have about 50 copies of sheet music from
the 20' and 30's .
I have entered the Scottsdale Strummers in the "Extravaganza". They only
have openings for 28 performances, and I guess they have a lot of people who
want to perform. Ralph's group, the 8 to 10 group will join us for our
segment. Ralph and I have talked a bit about what to do, and I remembering
our gimmick of the clock pendulum portrayed by the ukulele.
One of the possibilities for a song was "Up The Lazy River", and Ralph
suggested we could use the ukulele as an oar to add a little visual. Good
idea, so "Up The Lazy River" is the song.
The Extravaganza is the 18th of April, so we will hold off on practicing
until after we do the Arizona Cafeteria show on the 17th of February.
The agenda for next week will be:
10:00 Arizona songs
11:30 Advanced Ukulele with Jim Marchbanks
I am going to bring in 3 more copies of "The Daily Ukulele." The cost is
still $23. First come first serve, unless you let me know that you want one
prior to the meeting.
This is the Forth notice if you want to stay on my mailing list. You will be
removed in February, unless you want to continue to receive it. Email me if
you want to kept on the list. I will send this message a few times, then I
am going to purge the membership list.
By the way, you can email me at either
pat@azukulele.com or
