Any fellow ukulele players out there?

[fisher]

I'm getting more and more hooked on learning to play the ukulele - I can put a few notes together to resemble a couple of tunes, but I want to get better. much better.  I'm now looking to buy my third ukulele - clearly the previous 2 are hindering my progression....
Are there any myswag ukulele players out there?  cheers

Tiptoe through the window
By the window, that is where I'll be
Come tiptoe through the tulips with me

Oh, tiptoe from the garden
By the garden of the willow tree
And tiptoe through the tulips with me

Knee deep in flowers we'll stray
We'll keep the showers away
And if I kiss you in the garden, in the moonlight
Will you pardon me?
And tiptoe through the tulips with me

Maybe it's flowers you stray will be the showers of life
And when I kiss you in the garden in the moonlight
Will you pardon me and tiptoe through the tulis with me

Sorry mate, was meant as encouragement.  Tiny Tim is famous, you could be also

A much maligned instrument ... but when placed in the hands of a master like Jake Shimabukuro its astounding.

Heres Jake ...

The following link is of the late great Israel IZ Kamakawiwo'ole. The Hawaiian people consider IZ to be a national treasure. This rendition of Over The Rainbow is one of the most moving pieces I know ... truly beautiful.

Ukes rule, I know a bloke that teaches Uke players, though he is a hard bloke to track down at times .

SWMBO plays.
She also has her girlfriend neighbors playing.
They practice 3 or 4 times a week and have a blast.
Every  Friday Night they meet the Uke Club at the Crown Hotel in town for a meal and a play.
They are quite good.

Yeah I got one mate but I really suck at it but late at night after a few to many it's good to play around the campfire and have a singalong.

Of the hundreds of youtube clips I've seen, I reckon these two are my favourites (other than Jake - ukulele weeps):
