Learning the Ukulele before it's all too late! My fingers are too fat - anyone recommend a digit focused diet?
About Me:
 
Distinctly and strictly middle aged now. Life has to be fun.

Bought a uke back in Spring 2009 - never played any instrument in my life. Never realised that singing was something that could make you feel different. So I'm now self taught and have aquired so many bad playing habits. The music I make is for me. I have no delusions of talent. I post here mainly because there are a lot of genuine people in the YT (ukulele) community, who give useful feed back - some of it hard hitting " you were crap " to derranged individuals saying "you were brilliant" . The comments in between are the ones that I often learn from.

I do mainly my own stuff because I can't replicate and cover others songs as I'd rarely do them justice. I've been through the beginner, and novice stages and would recommend the uke to anyone of any ability who just wants a bit of musical fun. I'm now what I'd call a keen but limited amateur and enjoy doing what I do ....just for me and the hell of it! If you've taken the time to watch a few vids, thanks and I hope you have enjoyed them. If not ...c'est la vie.
Hometown:
Glasgow,
Country:
United Kingdom
Interests:
Anything that keeps me awake and involves beer
Music:
Contemporary - Paulo Nutini, Kaiser Chiefs, Avett Bros Cold Play - Classics - Rod Stewart, Tom Petty, Eddi Reader, Otis Redding, Lynrd Skynrd, Black Sabbath and the occasionally heard of Beebop Deluxe

Hey Stu...still thinkin bout the request thing... In a little pub here on Long Island we used to do something that the Karaoke guy called "Karaoke Roulette" where he would have his computer randomly pick a song and we had to sing it...like a shuffle feature with 100k songs... he would wait until everyone had a few pints... loads of fun...I had to do "It's Raining Men" once... what a blast!!

Thanks for the "gentle" nudge to get cracking! I am working on one I swear. Your comment made me laugh out loud Stu..I know you are from the UK but it sounds like something someone from Newfoundland, where I'm from, would say. No back doors with us crowd..get to it!.. :-D

Hey Stuby Doo... request huh?...I think your on to something here... I think it would be fun for subs to pick a song for us to cover... gotta do it with a post deadline...even if it is horrible... let's have some fun... I'll be a ginea pig...I do what I do for the love of playing not to show everybody how "great" I am or I think I am... I know what I am...someone who loves to play and sing to the best of my abilities... some are good some are bad..let's think about the details... thanks...

YouTube may have been doing you a favor. I have been writing really crazy songs lately. Hope you know not to worry about staying current with everything. It's supposed to be YOUtube after all. You need to make it suit YOU. It's just good to have you as a friend, Stew. Best, Don

thanks for the sub Stu.. we can grow together!! I'm liking the sound.. I may have to get a uke of my own!! I can always use another friend in the UK... Maybe everyone at the UN should bring in an instrument and play for each other and they would all get along so much better...Peace/out my Brother
