I have been playing with the idea of anti-blogging, that is removing some posts, a finding posted videos that were taken down (and now blank) for some infringement. I heard from Ukulele Bartt that the Disney Corporation had him take down his "When You Wish Upon A Star" video. Seemed crazy to me, in my Humble opinion (IMHO), Bartt was stirring up nostalgia for Disney.
I wanted to create this blog as a place where I can store and retrieve information for future reference. I chose the name Humble Uker Ramblings because I have started out strumming my father's 1950's painted Harmony ukulele. I think that the greatest appeal of the ukulele as "the people's instrument" is it's humble simplicity. My contact email is HumbleUker@gmail.com. I have also been working on a blog for the Baritone Ukulele called Humble Baritonics.

W. Welti's Classical "Ribbbbbbiiiiitttttttt!
Haven't posted any classical ukulele for a while. Wwelti feels like an old friend though we have never met. This ukulele obsession has created a bond between so many people from all over the world. So YouTube is now 5 years old and I have been all around the world searching for musical knowledge on the humble instrument. Alistair Wood of Ukulele Hunt just had his site's 3rd anniversary so I went back and saw that I started Humble Uker on 8/28/08, I am getting close to two years in August.
