Wanna Banjolele?

Bytown Ukulele Group posted on May 14, 2013 16:59
Please pardon the advert-type e-mail my fellow BUGs, but I'm looking to
sell a banjolele I own, and thought some on the list might be interested.

It's an Alabama banjolele that I bought a year-and-a-half ago, for $380
before tax. I'm asking $200, but open to reasonable offers.

Last night's BUG Jam

Bytown Ukulele Group posted on April 19, 2013 00:22
Sue and Mark and all of you BUGs,

Last night was one of the most fun music nights I have ever enjoyed. Thank you to all of you and especially to Sue and Mark as always for just doing so much for the group. Thanks to all of you who lead songs so magnificently. Any or all of the leaders could have been feature artists. Thanks to all who performed at the "open-mic" - you are all just fantastic to listen to. It was a great night. It felt so good that I had skipped out on a meeting to go to the jam instead. Sometimes we just make good choices.
