Noting that local favorite Dave King (The Duke of Uke) has been resting comfortably in our top ten for the past few weeks I thought Parasol readers might want to know about all things Ukulelese so this just in from Anita Coyoli-Cullen, co founder of "Ukes for Troops":
"I just got back from a week in Hawaii. While I was there I got a telephone call from the producer of the CBS Nighttime News with Katie Couric. Boy, was I excited. I had her call Shirley Orlando, my partner, back in California. It seems that CBS does this thing where you vote about what topic you want to see developed, and they want Ukes for Troops to be one of the shows."
"So, on Friday, November 10, 2006 please watch the CBS news with Katie Couric and when they provide you with a list of 3 topics that you would want to see developed, please vote for 'Ukes for Troops'. If we win, then they will come out to Shirley's store, Island Bazaar, in Huntington Beach, on Tuesday, November 14th, and tape the story. Please let me know if you need more information. Please pass this on to everyone you know -- Anita Coyoli-Cullen, Co-founder of Ukes for Troops"
Go Ukes!!!

Our baroque-drone-folkies Elanors' new album 'Movements' gets four-star props from All Music Guide in this new review: "The eight electronic nocturnes here are soothing, soaring, and ultimately unsettling; mood music for the paranoid and disaffected."
The band is playing shows around the upper Midwest throughout the Fall and will embark on a nationwide tour in early 2007. Download "She Had A Dream" and swing by Elanors' myspace page.
