Thanks Hille dear, I must get to one of these gigs. Since they seem to avoid coming too far North, I may have to venture southwards at some stage.

Dear Hille

The Ukulele Orchestra gig in Lewes on March 27th is really a private party. There a few tickets available for the general public, but I wouldn't go taking a long weekend if I were you! The chances of getting in are slim!

Thanks for letting me know .. Vic Smith is advertising it publicly though! Having said that I went to Bob Copper#s birthday and couldn't get in!

The Ukes are also at the Adur Festival (Shoreham-by-Sea Susex) in June .. WITH Richard Durrant .. so should be even more fanatastic than usual!
