No Free 'Ukulele


A few weeks ago, I entered a contest on Ukulele Underground to design a t-shirt. First prize was an 'ukulele. They have a rooster puppet that appears in their videos from time to time, so I took that as my motif. (Roosters run wild on the island of Kauai, where the videos are shot).
I was hoping to win a free 'ukulele, but I didn't make the cut. Oh well, my design is here for you to enjoy.

I have a couple other ukulele, so that's okay.

(p.s. The Hawai'ian pronunciation of 'Ukulele is OO-koo-lay-ley, not YOU-koo-ley-lee, like we usually say on the mainland. And in Hawai'ian, you don't add an "s" to make something plural.)

Thanks for entering Tim! Your design was awesome. Judging that contest was so rough.

Thanx Ryan. I've been in the judge's seat, too, so I know the decisions are always hard.
But you got some killer designs!
