New repetoire for a new year
I know we didn’t really stop for a break with gigs and all but it feels like time to start learning new rep. So, starting tonight with the ‘Uke Joint Jumpers’ I’ve been working on a version of Robert Johnson’s ‘Crossroads’ and cos we all like the Louis Jordan song we already play, another of his called ‘Let the Good Times Roll’.
Thursday night, I have a seed of an idea but I might run it by the gospel chicks 1st……..Ooooo, intrigue…..
outstanding performace at the BB&Roots 2012
Well, what great night Thursday. We got together for a last run through. The ‘Uke Joint Jumpers’ performed their set for the ‘Uke Muster’ & visa versa and we practiced the ‘super group’ version of Motherless Child. After which we dined and was merry, but not too merry ‘cos we needed to be professional later on.
We got to the venue nice and early so we could soak up a bit of the vibe and be merry, (but not too merry). Then came our turn and to my surprise and delight, the audience had stuck around( well it was late on a Thursday night & we were the last act). Weren’t they delighted that they had, ‘cos we slayed them like only a well rehearsed ukulele ensemble can.
Well done everyone.
