Sadly, I only found out about it yesterday otherwise I would have tried to get tickets to see it.

The Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain at the Albert Hall.

Sold out the Albert Hall actually... 6000odd people. Around 1000 of them brought their own ukulele's to join in with Ode to Joy.

I've seen them a couple of times and they are very polished and funny too. Their appearance on Jools Holland playing Smells Like Teen Spirit helped them out a lot. They are the best I've ever heard them on this show at the RAH.

Ukulele Anarchy!

BBC Have a photo from the night...13mb link.
