We all know the way to get to Carnegie Hall is “practice, practice, practice.” Well, on Wednesday evening more than two years of ukulele practice paid off when Brian and I got the opportunity to accompany the UKULELE ORCHESTRA of GREAT BRITAIN before a nearly full house at Carnegie Hall in Manhattan.
Here we are outside Carnegie Hall prior to showtime. Note the sticka.
Here are some of our buds from the orchestra on 7th Ave. trying to find a proper pub.
A quick sidewalk rehearsal, and finally our grand performance,
along with hundreds of other ukulele wielding audience members.























Marty – YOU ARE AMAZING! And so is your son Brian. Wow.
What a riot. You gotta do a ukulele Mug Up.
At my gallery!
Wonderful Marty!!
I second that Paul-would love to hear Marty, or Marty and Brian, play!
Well, despite our stellar performance in the Big Apple, I don’t think I’m ready for prime time quite yet. However, if there are other budding ukulists out there who would like to get together to advance our common skills, let me know and I’ll be there.
That WAS prime time!
A lawyer, politician, Photographer, Carnegie Hall Musician…man, your black&whites have to get a whole lot better! LOL
I thought that was going to be a joke. Let me try.
A lawyer, politician, Photographer, Carnegie Hall Musician walked into a bar.
The musician ducked.
love it – “note – the Sticka”
wicked awesome
Marty, you never cease to amaze. Of course now you have no choice but to perform for GMG. Joey, I think this calls for a video to be shared with all of GMG of Marty and Brian performing at Capt. Joe & Sons!
wonderful, my son has just started to play and it sounds fantastic…. he does need some practice, if you get together with other players let me know.
What a terrific personal adventure. These things do not happen just sitting on your fanny. Congrats Marty.
So cool.
