Hey all - Summer has arrived and we’re doing our part to help cool you down with today’s new Uke Lesson: “Schizophrenic Snowflakes”! It’s a little lengthier than usual, with breakdowns of the “snowflake” intro and all three major themes in the song … this one should keep you busy for a bit.

But once you get it down, here’s a nice little vid for you to watch how the whole thing plays out: “Schizophrenic Snowflakes”.

Special thanks to

Hey UUndergrounders! In our super special Uke Lesson today, Aldrine brings to you the ukulele take on Eric Clapton’s “Wonderful Tonight.” Check it out, get it down, connect with some people, and bring it around town! Then show us what you did over at the Forum.

Special thanks to ALL the awesome people who entered last month’s “Oh, the Places Uke Will Go!” Tenor Kala Ukulele Give-Away Contest! (Catch all the awesomeness HERE in the forum, and HERE). We’ll be announcing the Winners next week Fri (05/09/08) and hopefully the winner is YOU! Check back for the results!

This is UU - wishing you a wonderful tonight, tomorrow, and day after that.
Aloha.

April is here, and soon spring will be sprung. So ring in the nearing spring as we bring you a brand new UU Lesson: “Is There a Place” by Gyptian (well, Aldrine’s ukulele take on Danyo Cummings‘ acoustic cover of Gyptian’s original song). Hope you guys likey.

There was already some discussion about this song bubbling up in the Forum. And we started a new thread just for you, so discuss (and post your videos!) to your heart’s content.

Alright all you crazy children, here it is! This month’s UU Lesson is one to make all you 80’s and 90’s kids squeal with delight - TETRIS!

Ok, actually there is really no song named ‘Tetris’ but you know the one we’re talking about …

So fire up the old-skool-gameboy-light-up-magnifying-attachment-thingy on the ukulele portion of your brain, ’cause we’re about to get bizzay.

For those of you who, for reasons unbeknownst to us, prefer to read the tabs, our very own UU Forum members davoomac, Ikaru, and Woodshed have tabbed out their versions of this song in a nice neat post for all to enjoy. (You’ll have to log in to view the Tabs section).

Have fun having this one stuck in your head for the rest of the day.
