Big Mahalos to Ross and the Sweethearts of Hula for putting on a fabulous concert. The 200+ crowd was treated to the best concert yet (I can't speak for San Diego). The venue was superb - The Merlo Auditorium at The Luther Burbank Center. Special thanks to Jim, Linda and Alison Cramer for their hospitality before the show. I think Ka`ena appreciated the nap. Ono grinds!
Tonight's the big party at the Englander in San Leanro. Hope to see you there.
Da bus driva,
Kawiks

You folks bettah take bettah care of Ka'ena!!! She came to us with cold feet!!! Naps are good. The concert down south was just outstanding, no ka bes'! The intamacy of Ohana and specially chosen songs were way special.
Next tour, how 'bout letting us book them in up here in RB, MB or Gardena???
Enjoy the rest of the tour!

Aloha everyone,
Thanks for coming out to the show in Santa Rosa, we had a pretty good turnout! The room wasn't full, but the audience was GREAT, really enthusiastic I thought. We all really appreciated your support and presence.
Patrick, thanks for taking a chance at a new venue; enjoyed your new material too.
I like the ever-evolving photos of your keiki; isn't there some child-labor law protecting your kids against such shameless exploitation?
Thanks to Kevin, Ikaika and Ka`ena for braving the cold-cold North.
I really enjoyed seeing Kevin's kolohe side! Commenting on the dancers.....gracefulness. And he played us "JailBreak", hee, hee. My brother really liked that one; caught him off-guard.
Jim, thanks for dealing with those snakes!
Thanks to the ladies of "Na Huapala O Hula" for the fine dancing. they worked hard to prep and it showed.

Aloha kakou:
What a concert! There was such aloha spirit in the room, it was unbelievable, no, let me correct that, it was entirely believeable.
Crowd was very enthusiastic and knowledgable, and the playing was sending everyone ovah da top!
I listened to the Brown 'Ohana last year the Maui Music Festival and was so impressed to hear them, but how much mo' bettah to be right up close, in a great room, good acoustics and a chance to really see those smiles.
Kevin is a master story teller, i was giggling the whole time. the music is still with me, and I'm honored to have been there on s special night.
