Jake Shimabukuro will tour the United States in 2011 and 2012.

Jake Shimabukuro will tour the United States in 2011/2012, and with 15 dates in California we’d make jokes about him getting his sun in, but the man’s from Hawaii so we think he’s got us beat.

For the curious, Jake’s ukelele talents went viral when his cover of The Beatles’ “While My Guitar Gently Weeps” went viral on YouTube. Watch it here:

Grammy Nominations 2012

The 2012 Grammy nominations will be announced tomorrow (Wednesday, Nov. 30th), a moment we’re sure you’ve been waiting for. Often the winners or even the nominees are rather predictable, with the exception of Lady Antebellum winning the record of year last year (are you a fan? tell us why? we really had never heard of her prior). And rather than engage in the hoopla of “Will Adele be nominated for every award?” (because duh, of course she will – 21 was amazing), we’ve decided to look back at the past performances at the Grammys.

We can’t declare these the best performances ever since Youtubers don’t seem to represent a demographic that has or is concerned with the Grammys pre-1980—tougher to find those videos than, say, Justin Bieber’s performance with Jaden Smith and Usher (which was readily available).

What matters…is just if it’s good.”

They’ve had two years since the last round of shows to “make it good,” so expect a spectacular, finely-tuned display when the show finds its way Stateside in March.

03-17 New York, NY – Terminal 5
03-19 Boston, MA – House of Blues
