Well, after playing the ukulele for just over three years, I will finally be taking my first real lesson!  I have booked a lesson with Bruce Shimabukuro at Ukulele Puapua in Waikiki.  The guy and lady who was at the shop asked me to play something to determine my playing ability.  I started playing some Guava Jam and they decided I would be intermediate.  That's what I felt I was probably at.  I mean, pretty much anyone at these ukulele shops can play circles around me, so there's definitely a lot more I can learn.
Since I have never taken ukulele lessons, I have no idea what to expect.  If others signed up for a lesson, it would be a group lesson.  If not, it would be a private lesson just for me.  I guess I'm pretty much after the "ukulele lesson experience" at this point so it'll be all good.  I do hope to pickup something useful toward improving my ukulele playing though.  Hopefully there's still room left for me to improve.  I guess if nothing else, it'll be another excuse to go to Puapua to drool over ukes!  But if you've read some of my past posts, I REALLY would like to be able to play 3rd Stream one day.
