My uke.

Theres this little shop on Main that sells guitars and gives music lessons and what not.
I stopped by there one day and saw a ukulele hanging on the wall. 89 dollars!! To some it was a: "Thats a pretty good deal" to me: "Thats my whole stinkin pay check for the month!!"
But somethin about it made me want it. Mabey it was how small and easily it could fit in my hands. Or mabey it was the fact that i could picture myself playing it next to some over weight hawiian. That thought struck me as hilarious so without weighing the so called "benifits vs. consequences" I bought that thing.
And well it has served me well so far. Now i already have a guitar. That peice of crap has been sitting in the corner of my room for 5 years!! I never even learned anything on it. Well except for "twinkle twinkle little star" but you cant really WOW an audience with that. So i made a promise to myself to make sure i would at least learn SOMETHING on my uke. And i did. The C,F,G, and D chord. And well with those....you can pretty much learn to play anything. If you havent heard it already, i advise you to look up the song "You and I" by Ingrid Michealson. Pure genius...and well easy to play on the uke. A huge bonus for me. Considering i dont really retain things that well. Bottom line. If your looking to learn how to play a simple and easy instrument? Look into gettin a uke. You will not be dissapointed:D
