leb397Participant@abster you are just amazing. Would love to be in the car/train where ever you are travelling, and listen to you play. You have such a bright future. Sure enjoy seeing your posts!
@the_Bumble_bard – quick note to say I love your entry and googlie eye-tap. very cleaver to try. As everyone has posted, you should trust your hands and believe that you CAN strum and play. Very nice!
@gi_gi_ really enjoyed your Summertime. Everyone that played that has a great groove and feeling to it. I think I will have to try learning. Lots of quick chord changes I can see.I love that so many tried to add a background like beautiful @grannieannie in the woods. So calming. But then others talked about the mosquitos, lack of light (ha! @maryjanew – made me laugh with the fast speed and then your final take.) Well done.
I really wanted to record mine by the water or outside but all opportunities just didn’t materialize.
I can’t comment on everyone – sure are some amazing musicians in this community .
Thanks @Andrew for some many great challenges. I believe this was my 43rd straight entry!Looking forward to the 100th challenge Next month!!!!! Louisa

leb397ParticipantI AM PREMIUM MEMBER
My (2) submission. I chose In the Summertime. Love Mungo Jerry’s 1970 video. Makes you want to dance. I played on my concert and then my 100 yr old Bacon banjo Ukulele. I can chuck better on BUke for some reason. Just fun to play. Certainly not the most polished takes but had to get in. Busy summer… so many amazing entries. I want to comment on some at a Later post.

leb397Participant@the_bumble_bard i think we have filled the first page of this thread! Agree, i use my computer less these days so my iPad is a one finger plunk plunk….
You should keep a journal. You have a great imagination and thought process. Okay…. Signing out 🤪😆June 2, 2025 at 7:21 pm in reply to: Participate in the June 2025 Member Challenge – WIN $2,250 Kanile’a Ukulele #73959
leb397ParticipantWell you made me laugh. I actually get it too!
I try to guess what next challenge will be, but OFTEN way off. I’ll put my requests in to you… we can focus together. Only difference is your genre is younger than mine 😁 still crazy you get it in few days.
Btw, I struggle with the chuck. It actually “scares” me. Not really but I don’t commit to it. IN the Summertime has Lots of Chucking. So we shall see. Thinking I might try to do the Andrew style chuck, which is a slap.
Hope your days are feeling less stressed with your loss. Practice more keep you happy 🎶🤗🌄

leb397Participant@marianne that is kind of you to say because I so admire your playing.
@brettboy a pleasure to listen to.
I enjoy listening to all the entries and the fact we all know (and have been there) what goes into a submission. Some say over 200 takes, hours of practice, or life getting in the way – makes it even more amazing the entries are so good!
One more thing – this community is from all over the world – music is universal- 🎼🫶🤯👏. Louisa
@andrew so glad I found Rock Class five years agoJune 2, 2025 at 8:51 am in reply to: Participate in the June 2025 Member Challenge – WIN $2,250 Kanile’a Ukulele #73944
leb397ParticipantI love this selection @Andrew. I think I’m going to re-visit mungo Jerry, In the Summertime. I forget a song so quickly unless I play it A LOT.
@the_bumble_bard a good choice and maybe you’ll nail it in four days ☺️. It does have some moves in it though. I’ll look forward to listening.
Can’t wait to see who chooses the classic sultry Summertime. I’m tempted.
Happy June everyone.
leb397ParticipantI’m so sorry The_bumble_bard. She looks so adorable in this picture. It’s so difficult to lose a pet. She was your BFF. My deepest condolences. Thank you for sharing Rachel. I’ve wondered how you two were. 🤗❤️🐺 ( not a racoon this time but it looks close to your sweetie)
leb397Participant@old_man_uke. Welcome. RC is a great choice to teach you at a pace you will enjoy. I did the same five years ago. Looked online till I found this welcoming community. Remember we were all beginners at one time. Enjoy!

leb397Participant@the_bumble_bard i loved it. You really for the flow of the picking pattern down. Very nice. And the kitty bonus was sweet. Glad she’s doing well, at least to complain for your attention 😊🦝👍👏
leb397Participant@katazumiri that was so pretty. Never heard it before. Almost a haunting tone. Well played and the birds are amazing.
I’m sure you can use the bird songs in another future cool video you make.May 23, 2025 at 8:29 am in reply to: Participate in the May 2025 Member Challenge – WIN $2,250 Kanile’a Ukulele #73802
leb397Participant@leslieb, nicely played and great that @andrew is showcasing it. It was a tough one for me getting those up/down/down/ups 😁 👏
@deadbuggy, really enjoyed yours with great emotion. -
