I have pretty much ignored this page since the whole Covid19 pandemic started, so here is an update.

– We started doing Zoom get togethers in April and continued weekly through June. There was only one Zoom gathering in July and then we took a break until last week (August 25).

We will continue with Zoom gatherings until such time that we can meet in person again.

The next scheduled Zoom Meeting is on Tuesday Sept. 1

We cancelled Ukulele Night on April 14 but instead had a Zoom Meeting on that date .

We will be doing another Zoom gathering tomorrow, April 28. Email Drew – drew@coaxpa.com if you are interested. Please put Zoom in the subject line and your name and email address in the body .

Sorry, maybe in May?   If I can figure out how to do a Facebook live event we’ll do that in April.  I’ll let you know.

March Ukulele Night will be on Tuesday, March 10 from 6:30 – 9:00PM at Charlie’s Pub Eatery in Edinboro. Please come out and join us for another night of strumming, singing and fun. Bring a friend or two.

We will have a St. Patrick’s Day theme for part of the evening playing all of the Irish-like songs on our list and then move on to others. Here’s a list of tunes to look at if you’re inclined to practice:

Drunken Sailor
Whiskey in the Jar

Cockles & Mussels(Molly Malone)

Well, my one New Year Resolutions was to get announcements out at least two weeks prior to Ukulele Night. Resolution already broken.

January Ukulele Night will be on Tuesday, 1/14/2020 from 6:30 – 9:30 at Charlie’s Pub and Eatery in Edinboro. Hope to see you there.

December Ukulele Night will be on Tuesday, Dec. 10, not the 12th. Sorry for the confusion:-(

The Uke Cheat Sheet is a great resource to help learn which chords are used in different keys!

Well, the holiday season is upon us so I thought that maybe you needed some ukulele Holiday songs to get you going.

On our website you will find two Christmas song books: one from the River City Ulkulele Society in Richmond VA and another from the Phoenix Ukulele Club in Wigan, UK. There is some duplication of songs as you might expect.

I also have found a great ukulele “cheat sheet” to help with chords used in different keys. This will also be available on the website.

Our DECEMBER UKULELE NIGHT WILL BE ON TUESDAY, DECEMBER 12 from 6:30 -9:00 at Charlie’s Pub and Eatery. Hope to see you there for an early Christmas celebration.

Enjoy the books,

Drew

Welcome to late Autumn and Eastern Standard Time! Cooler temperatures and early sunsets give you more time to sit in a warm place and play your ukulele
