Some great suggestions here...

extra karma points for you.

The uke tsunami has hit Goa, India, where I've been spending a few months. A couple of suggestions for easy, record-busting song for the 2010 Fest:
Ukulele Lady
She Wears Red Feathers

Surely UOGB have got to be there?

Stewkulele

I wasn't there last year but I heard it was amazing..



- how about at some point making 2 groups, kind of a lady VS men jam ? Or maybe a jam song wich has that kind of question/answer structure in it?

- I don't know how long it lasts, but I'm sure it won't be enough for many
so why not organise a Uke Camp after the festival, like in the country somewhere for a week?


- and... I also hope the I UOGB will be there, I would literally KILL to see them live in London!
