Just put @ in front of their “name”. It tags them or notifies them through the forum you are in. Also make sure you check the box below to ” notify me of followups…”

I selected Song of Storms to show my new Low G Ortega Pineapple Uke! Thanks Uke Republic – love it.

leb397Participant@smokealot, I remember this Ted talk. It is just one reason I play with the Uke. I have no goal for Carnegie Hall but the joy of accomplishment is all mine.
Everyone is on a different path @the_bumble_bard states. Practice is time spent. “Obligations “ get in the way, work, family, to do lists and then you have age – parts take longer to learn. I’m at a place in life, retired and just love learning some new song. I play for me rarely in front of anyone. (except my recordings on RC101)😆
So ? Is 3 things
Self accomplishment
It’s my time, alone in a room 1,2,3 hours
Community with others with similar goals and language, being a part. 😊 But whose counting…November 6, 2022 at 5:22 pm in reply to: Participate in the November 2022 Member Challenge – WIN $6,000 Kanile’a #54594
leb397Participant@mark65536 that was amazing. This group keeps raising the bar. And yes, need some recording lessons/ forum called tricks! So enjoyable.

leb397Participant@madz_about_uke excellent. I saw your post on FB and then here. Nicely played. Louisa

leb397ParticipantHappy Halloween Uke friends. So impressed by entries and the struggles we all battle. BUT broken, smashed fingers get extra kudos and then there are the distractions of cats, dogs, birds. I just love it. Thank you @andrew for the challenge. Louisa

leb397Participant@Andrew Thank you for the positive complimentary words. As hard as it is for me to learn a song, I’m happy with any progress. BTW the most difficult part(or one of) in Stranger Things was the intro – I’m left handed and making my wrist move fast up fret board was hard! lol.
Last – without the ability to loop the playback lesson and adjust the speed, I’d be lost. It’s the best part of learning a new song!
Great entries everyone! Some so fun and creative – kudos @brettboy

Enjoying all the entries this month.
Again, another struggle getting through Stranger Things. Kept getting “yips” as my husband would call them, when trying to keep a steady picking rhythm. Played with @Andrew track so many times…
I relate to so many of the comments – sore fingers, over 50 video takes, I have run out of time this month. One improvement… I can’t hear my nails hitting 😎 THANKS @Andrew
October 7, 2022 at 5:00 pm in reply to: Oct 11, 2022 – Live Lesson: 3 Things I Never Thought I’d be Able to do on Uke #53998
leb397ParticipantThis sounds very familiar….
– not looking at my hands
-memorizing a song (huge)
-playing live or recording , big struggle
-rhythm patterns – never thought I’d get a basic “island” strum
Many more listed by others.
@andrew, probably can make it live.
leb397Participant@surferjay I love it. Enjoy the layers and picking out each one.
Then dropping them… coolOctober 6, 2022 at 5:58 pm in reply to: Participate in the September 2022 Member Challenge: WIN Pineapple Ukulele! #53989
leb397ParticipantThank you @madz_about_uke super excited 😊
leb397Participant@jbmills07 excellent take. Enjoyed listening. I think you have the chuck down!

leb397Participant@jbmills I guess I need a cat (ha). Well played and purrfect way to start todays practice. Beautiful cat too. Glad you shared!

leb397ParticipantI appreciate the congratulations @the_bumble_bard @terriert @lhamilton @ldarrow @gi_gi and @nelsonlin2021 – we’ll see about a song but I’ll definitely post a picture.
I won a Pineapple Uke… I keep telling my husband 😊❤️ -
