Hey Ukesters,
Thanks for another great gathering Thursday! Lots of music and laughs. This week we’ll be meeting at the Guntersville Railroad Depot Museum, 905 Railroad Ave at 1pm. We’ll have a tour of the museum first and rehearse the playlist below afterwards. If you prefer to sit during rehearsal, please bring a chair for yourself. If you are missing a title, please email or text me to email or bring you a copy. The extras books will NOT be at the rehearsal. You can also find most of our music on our website, Ukesters.net under “Music 25” or on our Ukesters FB page under “files.”

In case you missed it—-Our website address has changed! We are now Ukesters.net (previously .org). Thank you Johnny for keeping this site going for us!
On another note, Mike and Scotty will be at the Albertville Main Channel Brewery tonight, starting at 6pm. Great friends, great music, and food!
This is the official email for next week, but you know that I’ve probably forgotten something and will have to email you again.
