- At our January 12, 2023 meeting, we kicked off the new year by learning to strum, pick, and sing an upbeat tune: Dire Straits' "Walk of Life." This 1985 song was a chart-topping hit in the UK and the US. It's a timeless song that continues to get tons of airplay and serve as an anthem for the beauty of life.
A big cheer for all the folks who strummed and sang with so much energy and enthusiasm!

Hello Bob.
I love your way of teaching and watching your students play.
With you I learned to play Here comes the sun and Time After time, from some scores that you had published at some point.
I would love to learn with you from a distance, I am new to the Ukulele and I am just getting acquainted with this wonderful instrument, my musical style is Rock & Pop.
Hugs from Montevideo - Uruguay

Hey Bob. I used your new app box to download the lyrics, chords, and tabs, and also your exercises and drills. This helps me tremendously. I have been playing a uke for almost 8 years. I was a member of a uke group in my town for several years. I learned as much as I could there. I am so very glad AUS is on CZcams so I can sing along!
Thank you very much for sharing this music ... It is a real pleasure to receive / listen to / see this ultimate joy at playing the 'recent' songs by Austin Ukulele Society ... this performing is a genuine kind of connecting people, by music ... it's very much beyond evil talks / gossip / whatever wars, this music is the one and only way to connect people, to connect the people with fine intentions ... kindest regards, Peter /the Netherlands ... ps I already let perform this movie some 50 times ;-) ... such warmness ...
I live in California. Where can I buy your T-shirt? I lived in Austin and loved it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 81-year-old fan.
They are all so lucky! Fabulous!
Brilliant! Strumming is spot on.
Perfection!!
