Now I know what a dulcimer is supposed to sound like.

The ukulele is the instrument of peace.

Blues, rock and hip hop are more about a lifestyle and culture than notes on a page.

Most people are awestruck when they see Lady Gaga and Bette Midler, but then the queen comes in.

The ukulele totally fits that whole hipster community or whatever you want to call it, but then at the same time it works great in nursing homes where senior citizens get together and play, and then as the traditional Hawaiian instrument with people doing the Hula and strumming the ukulele and singing.

Hawaii is a small, close community.

When you go into the studio or get up on the stage with people who have more experience or knowledge, you learn.
