Would love to participate when my schedule allows it. I'd vote for closer in rather than farther out since I live in Maryland and work in Downtown DC. However, since I can't be a regular, don't make the decision based upon where I am.

Wow. That sounds fantastic. I looked up James Hill after he was mentioned at the Del Ray workshop. Simply amazing. And of course you and Victoria Vox are fantastic too.
It will be fun to practice a bit too. :-)
Jim Bunch aka Gutbucketeer
My old keech banjo uke and An old harmony.
I also have a no name banjo uke, a dixie banjo uke and a little birdsye maple camp banjo uke.
And a baritone uke, a Maholo tenor (really a concert)
I hae a Wendell Hall teeviola that I plan to restore someday but its not playable at the moment.
I'm waiting for a new tenor Lanikai (if it ever comes in).
Who are your favorite ukulele players?
I was just blown away by Del Ray in her workshop, and learned about James Hill. James Hill is awesome too.
Paul Moore comes to mind. Locally, James Key is pretty darn good too.
I'm adding Jessica Graves - Lovely Miss Jess.
My old time favorites include Cliff Edwards, Wendell Hall, and Frank Crummit.
Do you have recordings, CDs, Books for sale? Where can we find them?
Not on the Uke.
My Musical Biography
I am a basement uke player. I play gutbucket, jug, and some weird noises in Snakehead Run, and the All New Genetically Altered Jug Band. I have a fairly large collection of vintage Ukulele Song Books that I collect when I can find them inlcuding the full set of Remicks Popular Songs with Ukulele, and many of the Armed Forces Song Folios.
