Ukulele Players

[marina]

I just got a ukulele from Dr. BF's mom for my birthday and I'm really liking it, even though I've only had it for a short time, I already feel like it was easy to pick up. I was was forced to play a string of instruments as a child and hated it, but I realize that I missed not having th ability to create music.

Unlike my poor neglected bass guitar, which is heavy and requires electricity, the uke is just right by my chair, portable and light. I know CartHorse plays ( I did a search and found a vid you made awhile ago), but does any one else?

What are your favorite resources?

I really enjoyed these youtube videos as a beginner.

Akai does. I have one sitting around somewhere, but I never got around to playing it. I hope you enjoy yours (more)

Oh yeah you are correct in a way but some of them bands are a bit boganish. Axel Rose was a bit of a bogan.

Oh and I see you are from Melbourne, I plan to live in Melbourne when I am older, to play some footy and shit.

Axel Rose is a god, He also has nothing to do with Ukulele playing.

Nah he doesn't but have you heard stories about him? He is crazy. Guns 'n' Roses are good though, have no problem with them. I read Slash's book.
