Here comes Johnny B Goode
Last Saturday we should have had one of our sessions at the Rosebud Memorial Hall. That meant we have missed a whole month of ‘Ukulele’ as everyone seems to call it now.
A week ago a suggestion was made that we put something ‘on line’, and since then we’ve had messages, phone calls, and emails with the same theme “ Hope you are both well and when are the SPUKES videos coming”.
Grab your uke and get your Rock n Roll book out.
We’ve cobbled together a home studio and had a try of making a video. The sound and vision are far from perfect, but we’ve got this far by flying with the seat of our pants , so another couple of weeks shouldn’t faze us all.
We used an iPad taped to a microphone stand, hung a chromakey green screen behind which magically turned into a brick wall.
This is just a sample of what’s coming .
That was fantastic. Such a great song to get the toes tapping.
May I make a request please –
Karen singing LAVA. I just love it
you will be the leader of a big ol band
good on you Karen and Al

Smiling and feeling happy to see you both playing your wonderful ukuleles. Looking forward to your next sessions. Thank you for bringing us together with music. Keep safe and healthy. Xxxx
Loooved it Karen and Allan bring it on,,,😄😄
What a hoot. Great, Alan and Karen. We miss it so much. All the music, jokes and laughter we are so used to is still being provided by U2. It’ll be a while I guess but we must all be patient, stay positive and try and not worry about things we can’t control. Your efforts in thinking about us is fantastic and most encouraging. Please keep it up and let’s all look forward to when we’re all back together again sooner rather than later.
Fantastic, you guys are great. Karen my wife loved your top. You looked good Karen. Al you looked the same. Karen the way you were looking at Alan, you could see the love in your eyes. I think everyone is missing it. We will all be nice and fresh when we get back together.
