It's come to our attention that there is a monthly uke showcase called "Ukulele Noir" in Boston! There is information at http://www.artsboston.org/event/detail/40745 (and http://www.ukulelenoir.com/ , but that site is having problems currently.) They have some recordings up at: http://www.jamendo.com/en/album/13903 .

Ralph Shaw hosts the Vancouver-area monthly Ukulele Circle at Our Town Cafe the third Tuesday of every month, and it has a website at http://www.vcn.bc.ca/vanukes/

Also, since we didn't mention it on the air, we should mention that we posted a second part of our "best of myspace" episode as a podcast exclusive, up for download at http://accordionnoir.org/drupal/node/149
