It was beautiful on Sunday, August 7, the day of our second meeting of the B.U.S.C. at the
Back Bay Cafe in Baywood. Upwards of 25 folks braved the sunshine and gentle sea breezes to strum and sing their way through an eclectic mix of songs. Next meeting is
Sunday, August 21 @ 3pm.
A good ear training exercise would be to Google the lyrics to the songs we played and try playing them by ear without looking up the chords. All the songs we played only contain one to three chords.

Pat Pemberton wrote a nice article about me that appeared in today's San Luis Obispo Tribune's entertainment section, The Ticket. Pat himself is an avid ukulele player. In fact, although I've only lived in the area for just over four months, I can't believe how many ukulele players there are here!
Club member Linda Grist D'Ville designed the stylish new B.U.S.C. sticker which was unveiled at last Sunday's meeting. I predict we'll be starting to see the stickers show up on vehicles and ukulele cases all over San Luis Obispo County as well as worldwide. Speaking of which, even if you don't live in our neck of the woods, you can still be an honorary member by purchasing a sticker or two for yourself. They are $2 each, or 3 for $5. Add $1 for shipping. To order simply visit PayPal and send the money to dville@teleport.com and please include your mailing address.
