Uke Performance

That's actually misleading. It is not an official performance. I am playing for my family, but only a few of them have heard me play, and that was a few months ago. I have improved since then. We are having a family reunion and they want me to bring my uke. I, of course, have been practicing While My Guitar Gently Weeps, though my practice has been a bit sparse lately, and when I have practiced, I have neglected the bridge of the song so that I would not annoy my roommates. Basically, I need to go to a private room like I used to and jam out before the reunion. I need to practice the bridge a few times before I play for my family.

Ave Maria, however, has not been neglected. It is a quieter song from top to bottom, so I can play it just about anywhere without annoying anybody. However, there are a couple parts that I need to polish. I really like that song.

After the reunion, I do not know how much time I will be giving the ukulele. For the Bluegrass Ensemble, I will be devoting alot of time to the mandolin. I am afraid that the ukulele will be shrugged aside. However, that is okay. It was never my dream instrument in the first place, though I sure do enjoy playing it. The mandolin has been my dream instrument for a while now. I would love to be in an actual bluegrass band. That would be awesome.

Thanks for reading,
