Check out this trailer for The Mighty Uke, a documentary about the ukulele trend I’ve been complaining about for a while now.  The trailer shows so many people from so many different walks of life enjoying the gentle ukulele that it makes me almost not want to cram one up a Williamsburg hipster’s ass when I see him with it in the park.  Almost.

“It’s an honest instrument.  Anyone can learn how to play a couple chords and then all of a sudden we can sit around in a circle, and sing songs together.  It’s a people’s instrument.”

I’d be lying if I said I didn’t enjoy at least some of the music in that trailer, but if I see any of you goddamned hippies even thinking of forming a uke circle on my lawn, I’m buying a flame thrower.
