Now Carring Ko'olau Gold, `Alohi & Manaha Tenor `Ukulele Strings

I'm using a low G set of the `Alohi strings on my main tenor and a high G set of Manaha strings on another tenor and really love these strings. I liked them so much I'm making them available right here on my site.

Tips, Tricks and Tools for Remembering Your Repertoire

Remembering those pesky songs - Lesson

Triggers are a way to remember a song or harmonic progression, independent of a particular key. It is a pathway or road map through a song. I've always had trouble remembering songs and was amazed at how musicians such as Chuck Anderson and Jimmy Bruno can remember so many songs. I'm sure the great remember musicians remember songs this way or in a very similiar manner.
