It would be impossible to not have fun with this group of ukulelists.  We’re all about playing almost anything.  If you weren’t there you surely missed a great time.

Boy-Oh Boy did we ever have fun on Hawaiian/Cowboy night.  This was such a great Get Together with a huge turnout.  Next Get Together is on August 13.  Don’t miss it!

The June get together at Charlie’s Pub and Eatery was another huge success. There were about 20 players in attendance, some more new ukesters joined us and fun was had.

We really nailed some of the songs on the list. “Drop Baby Drop” was described as a weird song by a few and “If I Only Had a Brain” may become a new favorite as soon as we all get past the hard chords.

I really love this group and their enthusiasm. Getting stronger every month. Well done my friends!

No pictures to post this month, sorry ’bout that, no photog on site.

Looking forward to another great Get Together, be prepared to laugh and have fun. Please welcome our newest members and help them when you can.  But then, you already do that, thanks. Please remember that we now will meet on the second Wednesday until October. I finally  added the pictures from the May Get Together. Play list for June 11:

We had our usual monthly get together at Charlie’s Pub and Eatery in Edinboro. There were 21 players in the attendance, a great turnout.

We once again pulled a new player from the crowd and she learned a few chords and is ready to keep playing. Score another one for us.

There were two other new players who came and were heartily welcomed. Our group is some warm and welcoming and totally helpful to new players. It makes me proud to be a part of this fun loving crowd of ukulele enthusiasts.

NWPA Ukuleles if sponsoring an Introduction to Ukulele Workshop at the Edinboro Art and Music Festival on Saturday, May 16. It will be held at Goodell Gardens, ukuleles will be provided for those wishing to try one for the first time.

Not a huge crowd at the gathering, maybe 14 players, but we sure had some fun. Played around with some vocal arrangements and laughed a lot. What could be better?

Yes indeed, we are having a bonus Tuesday in April so, a Get Together is in order at Charlie’s Pub and Eatery in Edinboro from 7:00 to 9:00PM.

Bring your whole songbook with you, your music stand, your ukulele and your enthusiasm. We will play a lot of the songs from the last song list and other random choices from our book.

Come early & have dinner.
