[NOT THE USUAL SONGBOOK! PLEASE READ DETAILS !]
[I have not yet found a way to list a Meetup as both in person and online, so I will be listing it twice, once in person and once online. Please register for the appropriate component.]
Uke in the Afternoon has returned to its home in the Community Room in the basement of Robbins Library in Arlington, MA!
Uke In The Afternoon: An afternoon ukulele Meetup, meeting on the 1-st, 3-rd, & 5-th Wednesday of the month.
The jam is for players of traditional (that is, wood) four string soprano, concert, tenor, or baritone ukuleles. (No other instruments. please. They stick out and interfere with my desire to have us all sound like one big instrument.)
After many years, it's time to update the songbook! My plan is to add new songs to the 3rd edition and put everything in alphabetical order, which will end up change the page numbers of the songs from the 3rd edition. I've made a collection of the proposed additions, which we will focus on exclusively for the month of March (and April?) Unlike when we first started, everyone now has a tablet (even those who prefer paper). Since the 4th edition will eventually have these songs interspersed with the songs form the 3rd, you might use these songs on a tablet until the 4-th edition is finalized.

The songbook has live links! Clicking on a song title in the Table of Contents takes you to the song sheet. Clicking on "to ToC" in the upper right hand corner of the page returns you to the Table of Contents.
You know the drill, We're seated in a circle. We go around the room with each person in turn choosing a song from the book to lead. Ten minute break half-way through. Play 'till about 2:50. I hope to see you there!
