Christmas List

Dear Santa,

I’ve been a very good boy this year. SHUT THE FU©K UP, SANTA, I HAVE! In that vein, all my Christmas requests are entirely selfless and for the good of mankind.

Low-G Ukulele: The people want tabs for low-G ukes, but it’s a pain in the arse trying to work out low-G tunes on a high-G uke or a capoed baritone. I think low-G tuning takes all the fun out of the ukulele, so if I bought a uke set up for low-G myself that’d make me a sell out. So the only way I’m going to end up with one is if someone gives me one. And if that was the Kala Acacia Tenor with the slotted headstock I could get two things that seem too icky to buy but I want anyway.

Ukulele Prom DVD: The ukulele highlight of 2009 so I have to review it for everyone. Yes, technically I did hear it on the radio and already know it’s AWE! SOME! but the ukes are just as much a visual act as they are a musical act.

Ukulele Hero: I ummed and ahhed over getting this one the first time it was up, then it disappeared and I wanted one. Now it’s back and I’m umming and ahhing again. Some one has to buy me one so they don’t stop making them again.

This shirt – Everyone knows that the only reason people watch my videos is that I’m pretty. Things I’ve worn in previous videos: checks, Ralph Lauren, pink. So if you got me that shirt you’d really be saving money.

As you can see, they’re all entirely selfless so gimme, gimme, gimme.

Love ya, bye.
