I'm just not sure about a whole night of just him. I dont have any of his cd's. I mean a few songs are great, he's awesome but a whole show?? On the fence , I am really bummed that Mac or Peter arent playing either night......very sad... :(

Mac's not doing a show in Boston this time.

Jake's show will be *great*.

Another option: Amy Lee is playing with Jon Frattasio at Slap Happy's on the rotary in Bourne, MA.

Go the show. Buy a CD. Probably it will be Dragon, as they probably won't have the newest one there. If it's just Jake, there's a good chance you'll get to shake his hand, talk to him, get your new CD signed and get some good pictures.

Fantastic show Jake!!!! :D

Yes, he was selling Dragon - the new album Gently Weeps is only available in Japan right now - it will be out this fall in the US.

Amazing. :D

:o :o :o :o

there are not words in the English language (or any other language, for that matter) to describe the music that flows from Jake Shimabukuro's ukulele.... "awesome" doesn't even scratch the surface.....

I need a winning lottery ticket so I can follow his tour.



I had to go right by GW on the way home, to drop someone off....... was wishing I had a sleeping bag in the car..... :o :D

I just went on Jake's website and it looks like he won't be at the 9/14 show because he is scheduled to be in Japan. :cry: I am so bummed for those of you that haven't seen him with Jimmy because it is definitely an amazing experience. :D
