February 18 Ukulele Jam

Greetings!

This brutally cold Winter continues to drag on. But we can forget about the cold for one evening this week while we enjoy our usual ukulele jam, 7:00pm this Wednesday, February 18.

Here are some songs I'll be bringing:

• Kansas City words by Bob Dylan, music by Marcus Mumford and Taylor Goldsmith
• Marrakesh Express by Crosby, Stills and Nash
• Massachusetts by the Bee Gees

Feel free to bring copies of your favorite songs. In addition, we'll further discuss the proposed songs for a new edition of our favorite song list. You can download a draft here.

We jam in the Royal Tavern, 344 Princess Street. Parking is normally available on Princess Street. Or park in the lot at the back of the Royal, off Brock Street, just past the fire hall. Be sure to show your appreciation to the Royal by visiting the bar and purchasing a beverage or two. Don't forget that they also offer soft drinks, in addition to their assortment of beers and other alcoholic drinks.

Cheers! Hans

February 4 Ukulele Jam

Greetings, ukulele fans!

Today was Groundhog Day. Today is when some hibernating mammal decides whether we'll have six more weeks of Winter, or if Spring will arrive in a month and a half. Regardless, this Wednesday is when we'll have our usual ukulele jam.

Come to the Royal Tavern, 7:00pm this Wednesday. If there's interest, we'll start with a beginners workshop. This will be followed by our usual open jam. You'll have your chance to show off your latest techniques, or lead the group with your favorite songs. I'll bring a few myself, including:

• Kokomo Beach Boys 1988
• Love Is All Around the Troggs 1967
• It Don't Come Easy Ringo Starr 1971
• San Francisco (Be Sure To Wear Flowers In Your Hair) Scott McKenzie 1967

Please feel free to bring copies of your favorites.
