Tamster: There are definitely some similarities between Nickel Creek and Tripping Lily. Both very stylish and skillful bands.

Jimmy: She keeps getting better all the time as well. I just wish she’d sing in French though.

All were great especially the Bobby McGees, Steven Strauss (very mellow sound from that uke), Waitswatcher and Tripping Lilly (who kind of reminded me of Nickel Creek).

Dan: Thanks for the link.

Todd: There were a whole load of Steven Strauss videos uploaded this week. Very hard to choose just one.

Aimee: Agreed! Waitswatcher has been away from the Waits instrumentals for far too long.

The Bobby Mcgee’s song is fabulous, but Cemetary Polka took my breath away! Wow!

All of Bill Tapia’s appearances at the ukefest were awesome, but my favorite is Bill playing Heart and Soul with the Prewar Ponies.
