Taunton Ukulele Strummers Club (TUSC)

After the disappointment of the Hedge Fest being cancelled, we were looking forward to a couple of big gigs later in the year: the Yeovil Beer Festival in April, and the Green Scythe  Fair in July.

Unfortunately, we have been unable to agree with those in charge of organising the music at both events.

With regret, we won’t be playing at either. A damned shame.

However – we’ve got lots of other, lovely chances to bring our uketastic joy to denizens of Somerset this year. I’ll post a provisional list once we’ve sorted out a few details.

Have a look at the Events page – updated with the excellent stuff that’s coming up.

And with the new Gig List, too!!

Tonight (Monday, 23rd December) will be the last TUSC meeting of 2013. We’re having a week off – so no meeting on the 30th.

Back in the saddle on Monday, 6th January, 2014.

Hope you all have a very merry Christmas and a peaceful new year.

Not stricky a TUSC thing but our hosts the Constitutional Club at Bishops Hull are putting on some gigs now and again and the first one will kick off with the FOS Brothers on the 24th August. See the Poster.

All the TUSC Songbooks are live again on the website, including the new Books 8 and 9. The index has been updated to reflect the new books too. Get ‘em while they’re hot.

Woo-hoo! Some of us were in Cheltenham last week, and James Hill allowed us to film his performance. It’s all here! Chopsticks in particular was tremendous.

Thanks to Tone The Scroll-Keeper’s l33t intarwebbing skillz, www.tusc.co.uk is back on the road! Will try to get back up to date in the next few days, with links to forthcoming events, and to the 2 new TUSC songbooks! Watch this space.

In the meantime, as always, why not have a butchers at our Facebook stuff:

Toodle Pip!

Two more gigs for 2013 added to the Events Page, and on Facebook:

Wednesday 3rd April, 7pm, Aviator Cafe, Dunkeswell Airfield – part of the WWII memories project, and

Sunday 14th July, 3pm, Bishops Hull Playing Fields – Party in the Park!

Be there, or be rectangular!

Gosh, aren’t we popular? Been invited to quite a few more things this year. Have a look at the events page for details.

We seem to know what date they’re on; occasionally we know what time; in one case we don’t even know where it is. But never mind, eh? It’ll be all right on the night/morning/afternoon.
