I have just done another year of ukulele workshop at the performing arts tent at Hillside. I didn't have enough ukes, and there were both beginners and those who knew how to play, and we had trouble hearing ourselves and each other over the other noise. And, an hour is not much time to do anything!
The second day was much better because I made them all stand up and make a tiny bluegrass circle and we could hear our selves and we rocked a tune or two.
People stayed behind to tell me that they look forward to it every year, all year! And they come each session each day! etc etc etc.
There were some proficient ukers there that I encouraged to put in proposals for next year because I want to do something else instead. I keep hoping a workshop like this could take place inside an instrument zoo exhibit!
