Woo hoo!!!! In the words of Difficult Ukulele Opera Song Number Two.


We rocked the Bed Workshop in no uncertain terms and here's a short film of edited highlights to prove it:


And now.... it'd be nice to do the show again sometime and somewhere and we'll look into that in various ways.

It would also be cool to do something new. We're cooking up something. Stand back and prepare....

In the meantime look out for the full length pickle film, coming to a vimeo screen near you, some time this summer!

Huge thanks to absolutely everyone involved. Thanks to everyone in the Bristol Uke Club, the Singers, the Bed Workshop and our audiences who succeeded in packing out the bed showroom without causing the floor to give way.

Things are hotting up. The ukuleles are getting pretty fine and good. This could all come together in a vastness of excitement and musical magic. Still working on final song (although that's song number 2 in the running order) but aside from that, we'll looking very good indeed! Make sure you've got the date and times right. First come, first in, and I think we might be quite full!

Now it begins...

So far we have a neat duet, a rap, rock n roll number and something that owes just a little to Officer Krupke. Four songs down, two songs and an overture to go, lyrics for most are taped.

Promotion begins. Singers need warming up. This will be pretty special...
