BACKGROUND RESEARCH

So I went to my main source of ukelele information on Friday. One of my cooperating teachers is a player of said stringed instrument and I wanted to see where she goes for info.  She directed me towards a number of great chord websites.  Also we discussed the purchase of an upgrade to my 40 year old axe.  It looks like the $20 model from St Johns Music will not cut it.  If I am in for reals I am looking to spend about $80 but it could be even higher.  Oh well after payday this weekend I will show off my purchase and hopefully learn to tune it.

Step one of the musical adventure.

Here is where I begin my musical journey.  The instrument that is inspiring me is my old Ukelele.  I was given it when I was 4 and wanted to be Johnny Cash.  Oh well maybe I can still realize my dream some day.

It will start with the purchase of a new instrument on the weekend.
