12 Feb 10 Hi-Vis ukulele case
HUG member Jeanette is off to New Zealand next week to visit her family. On the off chance she accidentaly bumps into the WIUO and gets invited to a jam, she has made an Ukulele Case out of an old Hi-Vis jacket, so she can take her uke with her…
Sorry about the quality of the photo (my fault) – BUT SEE HOW IT GLOWS!!!!!
18 Dec 09 Chord Friday: Winter winds – Mumford and Son
I dont wish to be all smug about this, but i reckon got this one right, and the rest of the interweb has
it wrong. All of the other versions ive seen have it in C, while im pretty sure its in G.
Also ive got the intro right, and the riff 
IN YOUR FACE INTERWEB, IN YOUR FACE!!!
Your on your own regarding the strumming pattern, and your probably best working out your own style , rather than copying the track 100%

11 Dec 09 Chord Friday: Debaser – The Pixies
Last Christmas I received a Mahalo Les Paul & mini Amp, and made a little video of me trying them out.
Amazingly 2,500 have now watched it, but i’ve never quite got round to sticking the chords & intro on here. So here goes
Im planning on playing this at the HUG xmas party, but to avoid the cries of ‘Judas’ – im going to do it unplugged
07 Dec 09 7th day of Xmas: Two MJ Hibbetts singing

04 Dec 09 Chord Friday: Happy Hour – The Housemartins
Often refered to as a ‘Hull Folk Song’ during H.U.G gigs…
27 Nov 09 Chord Friday: Total Eclipse of the Heart – Bonnie Tyler
Bobby J from the Hull Ukulele Group tells me that this is a solid gold uke hit. Im not convinced, but since i have nothing else to stick up today, i’ll give him the benefit of the doubt!
20 Nov 09 Chords Friday: After Hours – Velvet Underground
I love this song. I have done for years and years. Its perhaps a little ‘twee’ conpared to some of The Velvet Undergound’s earlier stuff, but it has that same ‘show tunes’ feel that features in Lou Reed’s later work. It appeared on their 3rd album, and was sung by the drummer, Maureen (Mo) Tucker
After Hours – The Velvet Underground
So put those drum sticks down and get warbling along to this one in a Mo’ Tucker Stylee 
08 Nov 09 And it burns burns burns…
I decided to knock out a quick chord sheet for Ring of Fire by Johnny Cash in honor of Bonfire night last Thursday. We’re going to have a go of it at this Monday’s Hull Ukulele Group.
Its only 3 chords – G, C, D, and its so familiar that it was almost a pointless exercise doing it! BUT ive tabbed out the Brass parts for ukulele which makes it much more fun if theres more than one of you!!
