Kickball (barring practice made more fun) barre chords Ukulele UkesterBrown

[piron416]

is there any Em with a barre

[UkesterBrown]

@piron416 Yes... if you barre at the seventh fret and play an Am shape. It would be 9-7-7-7

Great stuff, and I got the practice sheet from your site. Major big thank you!

[jbirsner]

Very helpful. Thanks for posting.

[UkesterBrown]

Your welcome- it has definitely made my hands stronger...

I've written out the chords at the end . . . from the video, I get confused as to exactly what order the chords should be played from start to ending . . . the C7 things confuses me. When I started, I had to scan chords then import photoshop where I flipped them . . . so left became right . . . and of course I tuned the uke left handed in that I strum with my left and form chords with my right . . any resourse you might have for left hand players will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Sam Dixon

Found your stuff through Mike Leach, he seems an incredibly generous guy . . . I have been ukeing for little over six months . . . am a left handed player and had to go through all kinds of contortions to flip the chords in my mind . . . "Kickball" is an excellent barre teaching tool . . . could you please add a "Kickball" sheet music to your sheet music? It would help this lefty a lot. Thanks!

I have never written out tabs. If you just write down the chord names at the end it will be faster than waiting for me to get to it. I will eventually, but it will be a while. As a lefty did you restring your uke or do you flip it upside down? Also, I think there is a chord genertor out there that flips them for lefties... if I find it I'll send it your way.

See David. I told you that you have the communication skills to teach. So let the the rest of Minnissota share your skills! Say hi to the dog

That was great! And nice chords and chording. You're better at keeping you're thumb behind the neck than I am--mine sticks up like Kilroy over the wall most of the time. And I'm tang tongueld all the time :-P

[UkesterBrown]

My thumb pops up when I'm doing some "normal" chords. When I'm barring it stays back of the neck.

[deach69]

Great tutorial.  Thanks!

[russbuss415]

great job on explaining all the chords

[GrumpyCoyoteTunes]

Sweet... "Kickball" indeed. I could play that all day.

[ihavenotea]

Interesting. I never really thought of dropping the root to make the 9 chords I tend to use a piano comp trick of just always playing the seventh. That is a great sound doing the 9th like that.

Thanks!

Thanks for this video! I need a lot of practice with barring and I think working on this little song with help. Thanks again for sharing!
