  • UOGB performing an amazing interpretation of the Babs Streisand-Neil Diamond hit from the 70s involving many ukuleles each strummed one at a time while being carried by a tuxedoed orchestral promenade moving in configuration worthy of Shriners' tiny car motorcade.

    I only just discovered this group. They're marvellous! They revived my interest in ukulele. Now I am beginning to learn more about playing the ukulele even at age 75.

    These guys and girls are one of our best musicians, they inject humour into songs which often lacks in the original versions, the ukulele is a happy sounding instrument, and the UOGB seem like they love a good laugh, and laughter is the best form of medicine there is, that is why their so polular, and i love the fact that they dont swear on stage, i cant imagine peter saying "if you got something to say, darn well say it or shut the f*** up b*tch!" it would be so out of context, no, they are too professional to be uncouth. I really want to see them live, ill bring my uke along =)

    Marcel911, the ukes are tuned to the various chords that are needed in the song. So Hester and Peter are actually playing the ukes.

    This is very well performed, they are entertaining a live audience and skilfully exploiting the limitations of their instrument as a vehicle for humour. It is a brilliantly written as a tearjerker, if that is what you want you listen to Barbara Streisand's wonderful performance but how could they raise the spirits of their audience after making them cry. That's not what the audience are here for.

    Funny Oopsies:
    1:33 Dave gives Jonty a Look to get Hester again
    1:47 Jonty checks with Dave, who nods
    2:04 Jonty heads towards Peter, who subtly points back at Hester
    2:17 George forgets about the next note and has to Run
    2:24 poor planning; Dave and Jonty revolving doors
    2:29 Jonty checks with Dave, who tells him to run to Hester
    2:35 George does it again
    2:41 Dave gives Jonty a Look to Run to Peter
    3:08 Jonty checks with Peter, who points at Hester again
    3:25 Jonty mistakenly offers up his uke
    3:46 Hester tries Kitty again, who was Not Having It
    Conclusion: Jonty has zero (0) clue what’s going on
