Happy 4th of July!

It's a day early, but I may not get a chance to post tomorrow, so here's an early happy 4th of July to all of you ukulele lovers out there.

I had learned Stars & Stripes Forever from Dominator's tabs for quite a while now, but never really tried to get it down. I thought this Independence day is finally the time to post a video of this arrangement. I also just got a Dominator T-Shirt so what better shirt to wear playing the ukulele for this video?

Dominator has been a huge influence in my sustained interest in ukuleles. Without his tabs and guidance on how to play some songs, I'm sure I would not have been as interested in the ukulele today as I am now. So I'm forever grateful to Dom for his contributions to the ukulele world. Thanks Dom!

Anyway, here's another imperfect video brought to you by the Ukulele Ghetto! Enjoy.
