   really dig the submissions this week….enjoyed the Puppini sisters harmonies and style, but I really dug Fabio’s ‘La Crisi” song as well….the emotion kinda got a hold of me….

   cheers,

   Every time I see a banjo!ukulele I like them even more but I think it is just because everyone who I have seen playing one is doing an amazing job.

   I love Todd’s voice and also the sign in the background just made me really happy on top of all that!

   cbf and todd: Looks like Fabio is the favourite this week – I’ll have to promote him to the front page.

   And what would a Fluke be without cheesy graphics?

   acilius: Thanks for mentioning me on your blog… again!

   Anne: You should get one. The banjo uke seems to have become a bit of a guy thing. I can’t think of a girl who played the banjo uke since Clara Bow.

   Jodi: I guess they haven’t made it over there yet. They’re fairly well known over here.

    There’s a local melbourne band, called Flap, which is kinda-sorta fronted by two people, one of whom – Jess Guille – sometimes plays a ukulele but sometimes goes for a banjo ukulele.
