Our meeting last Tuesday evening went well with seven participants. We worked on some ones we really seem to like -- One Paddle-Two Paddle, San Francisco Bay Blues, Bring Me Sunshine, Octopus Garden, Shady Grove, Your Sixteen and a couple new ones including Hasagawa General Store, Johnny Be Goode, Bye Bye Love.
We have a lot of female voices in the group so if they keys in the song sheets are not good for your voice, let me know and we can revise the sheet with a new key. There is nothing magic about the song key -- we don't have to do it just like the original, or in a easy to play key like C (but don't ask me to change to E please -- not a good one for the uke).
Our next meeting is June 12th. Hope your schedule allows you to attend.

I'd like to attend the June 12 meeting. It will be my first. The calendar says that the meeting will be at "the WCD", but doesn't say what that is, and the map link goes to a Google Map of the US. Not particularly helpful.
ReplyDeleteWhat is the WCD, and where is it located?
We meet at the Western Country Diner at 19th and Sheridan in Tulsa. We gather about 6:30 for some snacks, conversation and any questions on playing, at about 7PM we start our jam sessions. We have a club book with a lot of songs, but participants frequently bring new numbers to share. So if you have any favorites, bring them along.
ReplyDeleteNaturally most folks bring ukes, including banjo ukes, but sometimes we have a guitar a mandolin or a percussion instrument.
See you on Tuesday
