This forum is fantastic! I just heard slack key going to Kona last week, and wow, I thought I'd have trouble finding resources. WRONGO!

I have been a long time guitar player, not great, but always loved to play fingerstyle, and always loved the islands. Dolphins are my passion and swimming with them in sacred Keleakekua Bay was transformational for me. I will learn what I can of slack key on my own for a bit, and then would love to get together with anybody that would be willing to pass on anything.

Aloha Stardolphin! Plenty of room for more slack key players here!
You may find plenty of slack key on the mainland, too, especially if you're on one of the coasts. Keep you eye on the concert/perfomance forum here at Taropatch.net.
Good luck starting out. Everyone here will be very helpful.

Yes, welcome Michael. So who'd you hear play in Kona? Don Kauli`a?

There are other slackers in Colorado. And I think you get an occassional concert too.

Aloha.

Hi Michael!
I lived Eldorado Springs, CO. for many years. Moved to Kona in 1994 and now run a website about the Big Island - http://www.konaweb.com if you get homesick for Kona, check out our web cams.

You should contact Gordon Burt through this forum. He lives in Lakewood, and just loves slack key. He would be
glad to hear from you.

Next time you are in Kona get in touch with me. I love to get together with visiting musicians. I play acoustic Hawaiian
steel guitar and a very unusual slack key bass. ( http://www.konawalkingstick.com )

Aloha,

That's a great website Kona Bob. I've been homesick for Kona ever since I left.

Aloha,
