“Your lessons are fantastic!!!! I am 70 and began teaching myself how to play the uke several years ago. I discovered your web site when you were around Lesson 12 and have copied and saved all of them in a Microsoft folder. You have answered questions that I have had about music theory for all this time. Your lessons unlock the door to understanding so many concepts. I become so excited when I read along and I think -“Oh my God, he’s going to tell how to name the moveable chords, or I’m going to finally learn how to determine the chords in a Key! You explain everything so well!!! You also lend confidence. I didn’t think that I could distinguish by hearing the chords in any song. But when you listed what they would be, and I listened to you play them, I could figure it out!
I did buy your Hear the Strum DVD several months ago from the Magic Fluke Company. I read the description on their web page and that may have led me to your great instructions. I do think your theory eliminates so much frustration but I need to practice it more while listening to the DVD. You certainly have a magnetizing personality, and I so enjoy your playing.
I have wanted to write to you to thank you for all the help I have gained from your lessons but couldn’t locate your e-mail address for awhile.
Sorry to be so late expressing my enormous appreciation for your Uke Lessons! They are on the best on the internet! And I would hope that you will at some point have them all published in a book. Will write again. Enjoy your summer!!”
