Favorite moments at UWC 2010

[kilaana]

At Beeeeeeeejums suggestion, I'm starting a thread of favorite moments from UWC 2010. Here are mine! What are yours??

- Finding out out that Ukeyermind and Lonnab live just a few blocks away from me!
- Watching Beeejums play the "12th Street Rag". (I want to play like that someday!)
- Watching Dominator and DeG playing up close and in person. (I want to play like those guys, too!)
- Waking up at 8 a.m. to the smooth stylings of Batman loudly singing "Octopus's Garden" from the tent next door
- Hearing Dirk announce to the world that he had just eaten his first Twinkie
- Talking in French and learning some blues licks from Little6ster
... and the list goes on and on

[CoLmes]

To name a few

-Bald Peanuts, I may have been super drunk but it seemed like that was the song of the event.
-Watching Dirk eat his first twinkie
-Having my first white castle
-Watching Andy Solve a rubics cube
-Singing Thank You For Leaving me with Seeso, very drunkenly.
-Hank's performance
-Zoe and Seeso "Belong to me"
-Dancing with Sally
-Group Picture
-Getting yelled at to stand still during the group picture
-Stealing beers from peoples coolers with Rob because we ran out
-Not remembering the 2nd song I did at the open mic on saturday.. I'm sure it was great
-Almost crying when everyone from the minijams all met for the first time
-Talking to RussBuss for an hour about lots of crap


more to come

-Stealing beers from peoples coolers with Rob because we ran out.

Thanks for not using any last names. Oh, and I guess meeting me and hanging out was not a highlight. I feel used.

[CoLmes]

Awww so sensitive! Of course you were a highlight, so was night time with you. shhhhhh

Jamming with Bhatman at our campsite
Meeting people I'd only known on Facebook till then
Falling asleep to the sound of so many happy ukes (and wishing I could go back and join the fun; maybe next year!)
Making new friends and fresh ukulele connections
... I only wish we could have stayed through Saturday night and been able to jam with more people!

I can't pin-point one thing. Well, I can but I'd get in trouble hahaha! Just an overall amazing weekend!

- Meeting my big brother seeso for the first time
- Hanging out with the mother Gigapus herself, Zoe
- Ramon's dance
- Watching Lisa and Alex do the tiny uke jig
- Getting lost with Lisa and the two German's
- Smacking seeso real hard for making a perverted joke about me (if it wasn't that, I'm sure I would have just done it for past things he's said, lol)
- Giving Deach a big, well deserved hug
- Baron almost sticking his tongue in my ear
- Seeing Rob perform Bible Girl in person
- Jumping on Alex when I first saw him
- Witnessing the homoerotic antics between Baron and Russ (i swear they are long lost lovers)
- Meeting the awesomest ukers ever!

LOL, I keep coming back and adding to this...

Hearing the lyrics of The Who's "Pinball Wizard" sung to the tune of Johnny Cash's "Folsom Prison Blues" during a round of "Uke or Dare". Damned if it doesn't work!

[Monkeyswithladders]

The love. Best time ever.

Ugh, I am in desperate need of sleep right now; I'm so excited to look at all the pictures tomorrow.

I love all you guys and can't wait until we meet again
