Bushman World Ukulele Video Contest 2011

Bushman Music Works puts on an annual ukulele video contest and I entered this year! I didn't ask any of my friends or "fans" to vote because the website made voting kind of a hassle.. requiring everyone to become members of the forum and such... so I just entered for the fun of it.
Well, results just came in a couple days ago and I placed! I was actually in shock because I wasn't expecting to at all. There were over 100 video entries from ALL OVER the world and Igot 11th place! (#6 Honorable Mention) I even got a prize! haha. It's definitely cool. I posted the video I entered with (a cover of "Why Do You Let Me Stay Here" by She & Him) a couple weeks ago but you can see it by clicking here if you want.

Gotta love the uke!

Beats the original by miles. Perhaps some of us are growing tired of being whacked over the head ever time we turn on these Baroque, over-hyped videos. Your sincerity and unaffected approach (which is in effect "class") is refreshing.
