    The best part? Jake’s sardonic laugh as he announces he’s about to play Thriller. Definitely a bit of “prepare to get your socks knocked off” tone in there.

    “I’ll do my best, I don’t know if my fingers will move this early.” AAAHHHH! He can do anything!

    And the Ukulele Gods said “And Jake Shall have the Golden Hands for the Ukulele, It is done!”

    @ramsort he is chunking, its just stopping the strings from vibratin right after the note is played.

  22. jellisrellish September 3, 2010 at 11:01 pm

    @BillBraskyisaSOB ukulele, but he’s a little better than most uke players.

  23. BillBraskyisaSOB September 3, 2010 at 11:26 pm

    What instrument is this guy playing!? Cuz I have never heard anything come out of a ukelele that I like… but that was incredible!
