Walk of Life (Dire Straits cover), Austin Ukulele Society
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 жов 2024
- At our January 12, 2023 meeting, we kicked off the new year by learning to strum, pick, and sing an upbeat tune: Dire Straits' "Walk of Life." This 1985 song was a chart-topping hit in the UK and the US. It's a timeless song that continues to get tons of airplay and serve as an anthem for the beauty of life.
A big cheer for all the folks who strummed and sang with so much energy and enthusiasm!

Hello Bob.
I love your way of teaching and watching your students play.
With you I learned to play Here comes the sun and Time After time, from some scores that you had published at some point.
I would love to learn with you from a distance, I am new to the Ukulele and I am just getting acquainted with this wonderful instrument, my musical style is Rock & Pop.
Hugs from Montevideo - Uruguay

Great job on the arrangement and the video, Bob!!
Thanks Jay, this is such a fun song!!
Incredible find! At ... erm ... our I age, I just talked my just younger sister into buying a concert. Yours will be FAR the easiest way for her to become musical. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for all. I'm learning a lot with you.
Saludos desde Barcelona, España. 😊

Hey Bob. I used your new app box to download the lyrics, chords, and tabs, and also your exercises and drills. This helps me tremendously. I have been playing a uke for almost 8 years. I was a member of a uke group in my town for several years. I learned as much as I could there. I am so very glad AUS is on UA-cam so I can sing along!
Well done.
Thank you!!
Beautiful!!! Thank you all. Very cool
Thank you very much for sharing this music ... It is a real pleasure to receive / listen to / see this ultimate joy at playing the 'recent' songs by Austin Ukulele Society ... this performing is a genuine kind of connecting people, by music ... it's very much beyond evil talks / gossip / whatever wars, this music is the one and only way to connect people, to connect the people with fine intentions ... kindest regards, Peter /the Netherlands ... ps I already let perform this movie some 50 times ;-) ... such warmness ...
it is so beautiful.
I love you all.
Brilliant! Strumming is spot on.
They are all so lucky! Fabulous!
Mark will be proud
