space for ukulele players

[midorionna.livejournal.com]

this is a long shot, as we'll probably end up at an apartment but- a group of beginner ukulele players is looking for a space to gather/drink/practice, and i was curious if anyone has some insight into a local place davis/porter/harvard that wouldn't mind a little random noodling on a weeknight if we promised to drink/buy food.

not at the moment, but you should check out 24tom.com :-) (he runs open mic nights often in the city, so he might be worth knowing.

i was thinking of that one, maybe on a slow night.

Cantab Lounge in Central (on Mass Ave) has bluegrass night on Tuesdays and a "picking party" in the basement room, like an open jam for banjos, mandolins, etc. I doubt they'd mind if you all practice there, but I'm not positive.

that's a good idea, i've joined in on the picking party with my uke, but the other musicians were a little weirded out. maybe if i came with a posse next time...

Yeah! Make them fear the ukulele!

As I recall, your apartment works fine.

so we meet again, cur.
the apartment might be a bit tight for 16 ukers, though.

But they're so tiny.

What are you trying to imply about the size of a uke player, eh??? That uke players are a bunch of SHRIMPS or something?!
