leb397Participant@the_bumble_bard really like the tremolo. You def have picked up speed. Sounds good. Very natural.
@nat-uke very pretty, love your rasqueado ππJanuary 27, 2025 at 10:15 am in reply to: Participate in the January 2025 Member Challenge β You Decide What To Work On! #65343
leb397Participant@lhamilton i love the bass rhythm. Always try to pick it out in a song. Your piece sounded cool as a solo. I like your explanation above.

leb397Participant@Andrew thank you so much, Very appreciated.
@the_bumble_bard also a big shout out! Thank you.
@lhamilton i haven’t figured that out… maybe Ill research how to move it. I save it to chrome then download on my computer but doesn’t always work.January 26, 2025 at 8:11 pm in reply to: Participate in the January 2025 Member Challenge β You Decide What To Work On! #65329
leb397ParticipantI accomplished the technical part adding the backing track audio file in iMovie on my iPad. Still took over an hour to get it to upload to google drive to save to my (non Mac) computer. I get so frustrated… never seems to upload the same each time. I know I’m not alone in the technical part of these challenges.
I worked on Parrot Head Blues EP017 and goal was to just get to 75% with all the slides and hammer-ons. I actually got to 100%. Not flawless but it was fun to play.
so challenge was complete… Louisa
Thanks again @Andrew – another fun one.
leb397Participant@kanique I love it. Sounds so good. One of my favorite blues songs and so many verses. πππ
leb397Participant@the_bumble_bard very pretty. Tremolo sounds really smooth and finishing with a little claw hammer is nice. Iβm still hooked on claw hammer. Just love the sound of a bum ditty rhythm. Iβm getting close to postingβ¦ look forward to yours.

leb397Participant@brettboy that was great Brett. Having payed Axel F as my entry it was fun to see you pair the base. πππ
leb397Participant@mattukulele that sounds amazing. Love the accompaniment in trio, sounds so cool.

leb397Participant@katazumiri that was so much fun to listen to and focus on each instrument. Loved the strum patterns. You truly are a one person band- such talent. πππ

leb397Participant@willw18 that is beautiful.
@the_bumble_bard I think you really have a great start to @marianne s piece. You have the knack for tremolo. When I watched Stephen play the song I was in love and then he said Marianne wrote it. How cool is that. Happy for you Marianne. And Rachel, canβt wait to hear more. And welcome to real life is the burden we carry ππΌπΌπΌ need a song for this.
@jbmills07 that is a beauty. I promise not to be βmadβ you won again Iβm just REALLY-jealous ππ€π fair n square as they say. Always deserving to a person needing support. So sorry about your friend. Itβs so important to be there for her. Friend support is so valuable. Itβs different than family. Canβt wait to hear final edition. Tell Iβm thinking healing thoughts as I practice today.UPDATE I have final memorized all of Parrot head blues EP017. Still few rough spots. Thought I was going to wear out the loop just to hear the timing in some measures. Iβll be posting soon. π€

leb397Participant@the_bumble_bard thank you for concerned comments. All is better. Lots of family stuff to manage.
Nice tremolo start. Since Iβm left handed, the tremolo tends to go wonky after 4 times ππ. Nice start. Hope you can play one of your originals!
@misterbones have to say you have demonstrated that the Ukulele truly can sound amazing in all genresJanuary 12, 2025 at 8:28 am in reply to: January 14, 2024 – Live Lesson: My Ukulele Collection! #65181
leb397Participant@gi_gi_ good question. I have same situation. I do humidify but probably not real consistent.

leb397Participant@grannieannie very sweet of you to say. Thank you. I always celebrate the winter solstice with days getting longer, it’s a good thing.
Exciting you have picked a challenge. I too should work on vibrato. It always catches my eye when Andrew, Stephen and Matt all do it. Good one to work on.
OK so I have gotten this far with EP017 Parrot Head Blues. This is the first part of the solo. It’s not refined but after 3 days thought I’d post this much. So many H/O and P/O’s and slides too.
The second half is maybe more difficult so hopefully I get through it to post a final. All was at 75% -
