@The_Bumble_Bard – I’m not trying to guess what will happen next month, as I usually don’t even know half the songs (never heard or seen them). So, just like @dianna, I’m looking forward to the first of the month (yes, comparable to Christmas) to close another “education gap,” as the Germans jokingly say 😁
@andrew Thank you! 🙂
@grannieannie Thank you very much. I agree with you that playing the ukulele in this place would be great 🙂
When I wrote “sitting and wasting time”, it was not about me. I was having a nice Sunday afternoon, going out to the canal in another part of town with my husband.The phrase “sitting and wasting time” was taken from the lyrics of a song by Ottis Redding. It is about a man who left Georgia and sought a better life in San Francisco. The expectations of the man in the song were not met; his life situation did not improve. He received a lot of advice, but did not follow it, and he felt lonely. All he did from morning to night was “sit on the dock and wast time”
@The_Bumble_Bard thank you, Rachael 🙂
Hello everyone!
Here is my attempt. I chose „Sittin’ On The Dock of the Bay“.I don’t live in San Francisco and we don’t have a bay, but we do have a place where you can watch ships, mostly barges, go by. It’s called the Mittellandkanal.
There are docks there, but I wouldn’t say it’s a comfortable place to sit. It’s a favorite place for joggers and cyclists. However, if someone wants to “just sit and waste time,” no one will bother them 🙂I am a Premium Member.
Have a nice day!
Hello everyone!
I chose “Reggae Rhythm & Riff – EP011”.
Here’s the version with a baking track by Rock Class 101.I AM A PREMIUM MEMBER
Thanks @Andrew! 🙂
Hello everyone!
I, like @concan, played “Come As You Are” in May 2021.
And now I want to revisit this song.
This time I would try to play it as a band.Have a nice day!
Hello everyone!
Here is my attempt. I chose Magic Uklele Waltz.
I read that Roy Smeck performed in a variety show and thought I could imagine this waltz as background music for a variety show or circus act. 🎪🤡🎈
My version is slow 90 bpm, I wanted to play it as a band (marimba, which is not visible but can be heard, was played by computer).Have a nice day!
Thank you @Andrew and our ukulele community! ❤ I am happy to read your warm words.
Good luck to all participants!☘🍀☘
So, here is my attempt.
I was mainly focused on “The Pogues ‘Dirty Old Town’ on TV 1986” but also a little on “The Pogues – Dirty old town, live 2012”.
As I don’t sing, I limited myself to a verse – bridge – outro.
Many thanks to Lars, who let me play his drums and kept me company with a tambourine.
Have a nice day!
@Andrew Most improv is a reconfiguration of what you already know how to play. This can be seen in the most famous lick meme compilation: The Lick
I haven’t seen this video with a lick meme compilation before.
But I really liked “this lick” in the following video:
First of all, I like that lick was adapted for certain instruments and the accompanying voices were added.
Happy New Year!
Execution: I want to arrange and play The Pogues’ ‘Dirty Old Town’ “as a band”.
Application: I’ll watch a few different live recordings of the song. I’ll also watch different covers of the song for different instruments. I’ll think about what instruments and what key I’ll play.
Evaluation: I’ll record and post what I’ve got by the end of the month.
