Default WOW......Have YOU SEEN THIS GUY!?!?!?

I'm not sure if you guys have heard of Mr. Jake Shimabukuro.....but this is quite impressive if you ask me........

http://www.collegehumor.com/?movie_id=159572 (Watch This)

His Home Page ----> http://www.jakeshimabukuro.com/

Related info ----->Midnight Ukulele Disco ------>www.ukuleledisco.com

IMHO Jake will single handedly increase intrest in his instrument by like 4000%

Oh God! That was wonderful! I'm amazed. I don't see how that's construed as humour though. Some people...

Yeah 1st time I saw him I was like..............???...............What?????

He is truely an amazing musician............

I said the same thing Relevate.....George Harrison cover was cool, but the live solo was amazing......(you might notice he uses no strap and plays faster than eddie van halen).....lol

He has toured in the past with Bela Fleck and the Flecktones.......

I was searching around and saw that he is touring with none other than......(drum roll plz).........Jimmy Buffett...........

News Article ( http://starbulletin.com/2005/06/11/news/index9.html )

Audio file..( http://www.jimmydreamz.com/audio.html ) (DMB Tripping Billies Cover with Jake...LIVE)

Audio file ( http://particlestorm.dyndns.org/eart...i03-1-Jake.mp3 ) (Jake With Bela Fleck)

(This guy is gonna be HUGE......Amazing Talent + a fan base like Buffett's = HUGE).....lol

I'll try to keep those that are intrested updated on all new Jake info.....
