This is a song by Mark J Hibbett and you can find him, and I suggest you do, at http://www.mjhibbett.net I contacted him expressing an interest in his song as its about my job, kinda!

So I hope he takes this as a Tribute in the full Tenacious D sense!

NIce ringy uke- can you please tell us what make it is-? Is it soprano- and does it have as good a picking sound as strumming- and is it koa? -Very well done- pleasure to hear you perform- A million ukes- a million questions---

@keltyk Wow...questions! Always good! Right the ukulele is my mega bucks (for me) Kiwaya Concert Mahogany ukulele. It is easily the BEST instrument I own - but so it should be! The wood is wafer thin therefore it helps to produce a large louder sound. the strings are my favourite Aquilas. these tend to tension well and help produce a better intonation and generally improve the sound. Hope that helps? And thanks for the comment!

Ha!!!

I was trying to explain to someone how great a wee instrument the uke was and how EVERYONE could play it and I wanted to use MArks song as an example of the good things about this....The first thing I found was your vid!

Brilliant!

Excellent! thanks very much...camera work aside, it is a fun song to play and apart from the dodgy chord rise, even mark says its easy!

This is great Jules!! The videoing is great!! I think he has a cracking sense of humour. The playing and singing is OK too!!

Can't wait to hear the kids playing them.
