One of the best tunes ever. That made a sh*t morning, nearly bearable. Cheers, Baron.

I've always wanted to try the Uke, still meaning to try pedal steel too. Stick to my guitars for now ;)



Oh, yeah.

While I was on Atoll-Z slotting Shads earlier I found out that the ukelele is HUGE in the Pacific, especially in Tonga.



They also have the :af: band in residence



Where's George Formby when you need him?

My father tells me his friend's son is one of the foremost ukulele experts in the UK. Takes all sorts, doesn't it!

I love Formby
