Friday Ukulinklinks

The New York Uke Fest is officially up and running. You can check out the running order here and read a dubious letter of welcome from the Mayor of New York here.

I’ve mentioned a few times that WeePOP! Records is officially my favourite record label at the moment. So it’s sad news that their podcast blog Not Quite Rocket Science is closing for business. If you hurry, you might be in time to cath the Ukulele popcast.

Speaking of WeePOP!, foggy ruins of time has an mp3 of Jacob Borshard’s tribute to the movie Cocktail.

Craig Roberson’s latest CD Houdini’s Perspective is out now.

Why does the Church of Christ prohibit ukuleles in their song services? Amos 6:3-7 “Woe to you who put far off the day of doom… who sing idly to the sound of stringed instruments, and invent for yourselves musical instruments like David; who drink wine from bowls, and anoint yourselves with the best ointments, but are not grieved for the affliction of Joseph. Therefore they shall now go captive as the first of the captives, and those who recline at banquets shall be removed.” I knew I didn’t like that God dude.

So if your looking for impress your BFF wow that’s really cool kinda thing then I suggest “Fender” TM” electric guitar NOT a uke.”
