| The Player directory here lists only 3 uke players in the Cleveland area. Send 'em an email and see who's available for some uke jammin'. Cheers!

| There's a uke group that plays at the Coventry branch of the Cleveland Heights library. I believe they meet on the last Tuesday of the month. I've never heard of the Cleveland Ukulele Orchestra, and their web site's under construction so I can't tell you anything about them.

Surfink,
This Saturday, there's a great little music festival in Burton, OH, which would be about a 45 minute to a one-hour ride on the east side of Cleveland. It's held in a very nice restored pioneer village setting and there's some very fine musicians in the line-up this year. The Dust Busters, a fine old time string band from Brooklyn will be there. Everytime they come town there's a wonderful jam and ukes are welcome. Pat Conte will also be there with Little Brother, a killer very old school country blues band. Here's the link http://raccooncountymusicfestival.com/.

No problem, Surfink. If you can make it there will be some very fine musicians there. I live on the west side of town and if my schedule frees up let's try get together.
Are you on the film crew in town?
