Uke

I'm sure you folks haven't heard of this guy (Jake Shimabukuro), but he puts a new look on the ukelele.

I've seen Jake twice with Jimmy Buffett. Incredible musician. I have a video or two of him in here somewhere.

I say everytime I hear the national anthem sung or played it brings tears to my eyes (yes even when Whitney Houston sang it); and this was no different.

Who'da thunk a uke would make me cry.

BTW... He is going to be playing at the Ram's Head in Annapolis this Saturday at 1pm.

The one he plays is like a small guitar, not a toy, and he plays it like one. Very proficient. "Bohemian Rhapsody" was great.

What about Roseanne's version? Although, I guess tears would be understandable... tears of pain.

Yes, Rosanne's version brought very painful tears to my eyes.

I sure was hoping this would be a Tiny Tim tip-toeing through the tulips thread.
