Inside NYC's underground ukulele scene
By The Next List Staff, CNN
New York (CNN) - Here at The Next List we’re pretty gung-ho about Jake Shimabukuro and the amazing things he does with a ukulele. And Jake's not the only one. Ukulele lovers are on the rise – all over the world.
Here’s a glimpse into the “uke” subculture right here in New York City as ukulele lovers and players gathered on a cold winter night to celebrate all things uke. It’s the NYC Ukulele Meetup Group at the Uke Hut in Maui Taco in Manhattan. Ukulele aficionado Ken Bari Murray tells us all about it. Enjoy!

Thanks for fgnlgiag this Eric! We did receive your app. One thing I noticed is that if a user misses a required field in the embedded app, the page does not scroll back up to the top automatically, so you don't automatically see that a field is highlighted for response. Right now I am getting confirmation page on Firefox after completing app. If anyone else is having issues, please let me know! Thanks, Jon
I really dig the videos and information you have on your site about ukuleles. Its sites like this that have made consistent musical progress possible for me over my 13 years of playing string instruments. Keep it up. IStillGotMyGuitar
The kid can carry a tuneI'm still way a bgneiner, with incredibly amateurish chops, and yet look at how I am able to amuse myself already: The Reuben Kincaid: Fire on the Mountain, take 2, basic uke feel track
Missed the show but reviews I have read on CNN and in the New York Times raevel that Perry went after Romney and everybody pounced on Mr. 9-9-9! Any one watch?
Tim: It is a really nice tune. I didn't rilaese until I started playing it.Cat Green Bike: Good luck! I've always fancied being on Thinking Allowed. But I'm far too stupid.cbf: Classy indeed. My mum will be very impressed.DCB: There's some guitar tab for the tune .
what does your post have to do with ukeleles?
Just what health care needs, a tiaorutl on how to be an obnoxious patient and throw your weight around at the hospital. Good thing no one pays any attention to CNN anymore.
