Well it arrived, and also a Behringer practice amp . . . both beautiful. I cut my classical guitar-playing nails, and now I’m getting a blister on my index finger. First public outing will be next Sunday (25th April) in Le Cirk, Dame St, probably close to 8 pm.

Thanks guys!

McSorley’s went down well too; we were the above eight with the addition of the “lovely’ Keith White.

We’ve since played in Le Cirk (twice, including St Patrick’s Day) and are preparing for an appearance in the Ranelagh Arts Festival in September http://www.ranelagharts.org/

Comment on We Are The World (ukulele style – 33 uke players from all over the world) by Andrew Robinson

Curious! I never listened to the words before. They say ‘as God has shown us, by turning stones to bread . . .’

Christians remember this stunt as one God refused to do (Matthew/Luke 4:3-4).

Ah sure, songs is all blarney.
