Pretty neat vids. Thanks for posting those. Esp the Arlo one.

Michael Jackson Uke, how fun and the singer was excellent!

Wow! Arlo and Janis was killer. Who were those Billy Jean people.? Is that a mandolin that guy is playing? Sounds like it to me...

It's a ukulele. What kind, I don't know. He (James Hill) performed a few days ago at a local theater (see other thread, "Mighty Uke") and I went in search of videos; he does a lot of interesting stuff with the ukulele. The singer is Victoria Vox, who is also a ukulelist (?), although not in that particular video. She's based in the DC-Baltimore area.

Victoria Vox!! Is that her real name? Her voice is beautiful. Vox, of course is latin for "Voice".

Topic? What topic? Is anything off topic as long as it involves talent and strangeness?

But I do not know if Vox is her real name (or Victoria for that matter).

And now I've gone and found another one of Mr. Hill and Ms. Vox, along with this really old dude with a weird name and strange-looking ukulele.

i'll say, that one ukulele stands out like a petunia in a periwinkle patch!

hey, you 'spect that guy knows what he is doing? :)
