Congrats to Justin. @Andrew hey the screen recording of all the names entered seemed short and I didn’t see my name scroll by… just wondering if it had all the entries from spring and Fall? I didn’t enter all the the months but got in on a few… just making sure… 😜
Merry Christmas. BTW I am home now but my brain is in a time warp from the date/time ✈️differences!!! 😩

I am in the South Pacific Ocean and got mixed up with due date. I’m sorry I couldn’t get this in on time. I enjoyed learning it so I am posting it anyway. When I recorded this I was on time but I didn’t get it posted. I donate every year to to UKC as I stated at the beginning of the month.
Merry Christmas@emiliano
Sounds great Emiliano! Did you have a backing track? Your uke sounds great plugged in also!@Andrew — this is NOT my entry, just practice.
I wanted try this song on the Baritone with the Tenor Octave strings. It will sound very pretty on this instrument but I’ll have to do my official entry on a concert uke.
🥰MJ
@andrew -awesome! That’s what I thought. BTW I have a recurring donation set in the middle of December for UKC! $50. I love that organization! I’m leaving on my cruise on 12/5 so I will try to post from the ship when in Australia.
The sounds great on the baritone, I’m taking my koaloha Opio concert uke on the trip.@marianne – beautiful performance!
Great way to start off the challenge
With this entry! You’ve obviously learned this song before, or you may just be that good to learn it in a couple days! 🥰 This is my song choice as well but I will be traveling and I wanted to bring a low G Uke along. Matt’s arrangement is in high G. It looks like you did a low G version…. Correct? Or you are playing a baritone which is low D?
@andrew – it looks pretty simple to make the alterations, right???
-MJHi @Andrew, will you be giving feedback for the rest of the October Challenge entries that were before the deadline? No pressure, I just value your insight.

I didn’t get to work on ukulele much this month and this song needs a lot more work, but alas,
time is up so you get what you get!
Here is “A Frightful Strumming Etude” with my frightful performance!😜
I am a Premium member but that doesn’t matter this month…
Here is my cover of “I’ll Be There For You”
love this song and I’d been wanting to learn it for a while so THANKS RC101.
Notice my T-Shirt… all online Ukulele Teachers, see if you know them all.
I think they got together at NAMM a few years back (pre-pandemic) and made this t-shirt.Travis Picking Etude – ML023
I’m really enjoying this lesson and this picking practice. I still have to get it up to speed and without pauses but it is 2:30 am here! we are leaving for the airport in about for the Azore Islands, Portugal! I’m so excited. I have been having trouble with my sound, every time I recored my practice, there is lots of static and weird background noise, so frustrating! I sound like I’m underwater so I made it look like that too! Hopefully I’ll be on the beach unless than 24 hours.
Happy Summer! 🥰🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼
@the_bumble_bard -great job! Kudos for working an original. I haven’t tried to do that in sooo very long! Keep working it and it will get better. It’s amazing to me that anyone has to “work on” and practice an Original, but it’s the truth, nothing comes that easy! I have “noodled” at melodies or progressions but then completely forgot what I had done!😩

MAD WORLD
Andrew please accept my entry… I was having YouTube issue and for got to make it unlisted as well. my video is in many parts because I was having trouble recording as well. I still have work to do on this song. I love it though!
@Andrew I have a similar question as Johanna, except I am wanting to play “Mad World” (I love this arrangement BTW) on my Romeros Creation spalted mango Tiny Tenor, which is lowG. I think I can do this if I play the HI-G note that comes up many times, on the E string 3rd fret (same G note)??? Are there any other problem areas that won’t sound right???
MJ🥰
