I'm going to have a short trip to San Francisco next week, 10/23-10/26. Anything going on or any slackers free on a weekday night?
I don't really know my itinerary but most likely will have a night or two free. Thought I'd put it out there just in case.

Hi Andy,
I just read this post. There's a "Kani at Nani's" Donut Shop in Hayward this Thursday, from 6:00P-9:15P. There's a great group of folks and you'll fit right in. Sil da Tril coordinates. Don't know if you're leaving that day. Otherwise, please give me a call or e-mail. I work in S.F. Where are you staying? I would love to see you if I can.
Aloha,
Doug

Aloha Andy:
Are you free Wednesday night? I can offer my hale for anyone who can get there, I live just north of San Francisco.
Or, the folks at Ka Leo Cafe on Irving Street usually don't mind if we play upstairs, there's room for about 8-10 guitars. Let us know and we'll be there! |

Hi Auntie Cathe,
Forgive me for my ignorance about California. I never remember who lives where. All I know is that CA is one big state.
Doug was so awesome to come out to my hotel last night with 2 guitars and 2 `ukuleles. We must have played for almost 4 hours. I understand that this is nothing for you guys here. You're kanikapila monsters! Despite blowing me away with his nahenahe style and beautiful arrangements, I think Doug was just getting warmed up. Probably could have played until the sun came up.
Unfortunately, I think I am tied up tonight. It's been tough making plans for meeting up with 'patchers since my itinerary was planned by my colleague. I just go where I am told and am never really certain about where and when I am going each day. Can I take a rain check on fun at your hale or Ka Leo Cafe? It sounds like so much fun. I'm on an 11:15am flight back Thursday so it seems that I am out of time on this trip. |

Andy, did the hotel guests on either side of your room enjoy the music? 
It is my experience that hotel employees really don't like to see you come in with instruments, on accountta that you play too loud and too late and disturb the WAH of the place.
And why are your trips out here always soooo short?

Hi Julie,
I think it was okay since we sounded so good. JUST KIDDING!!!
Because of the Oracle event, hotels were so booked that I ended up at Best Western El Rancho Suites in Millbrae. Perfect for kanikapila since I had a livingroom with bedrooms insulating my neighbors. No noise complaints.
Business trips are short, I guess. 2 days of meetings with several companies. |

Oh Andy, that's where we sometimes stay, because they have a park/fly package. You stay the night before you go to Hawai'i (you know, those flights usually leave in the morning) and you can park your car there for "free" for 14 days. Has worked out really well so far. A shuttle brings you to the airport and pickes you up when you return.
Larry wants to know: are you coming to George's camp next year?
Aloha, Julie |

Howzit Andy,
I’m so glad I got a chance to see you on this trip, especially after missing you the last couple of times. Jamming with you brought back so many fond memories of the late night kanikapilas in Napili and our last one in Pearl City. I had such a fun time—playing, singing, sharing new songs and licks, and just talking story. Eh, we sounded good, bruddah!
Hey Julie, both Andy and I play and sing very nahenahe so we probably put the hotel neighbors to sleep instead of keeping them up. Hard to believe we played for four hours--I don’t normally like to kanikapila for such a short time. :)
Anyhow Andy, on your next trip out here, we would love to have you join us at one of our monthly kanikapilas or open mics. Maybe stay over the weekend? You missed the Kani at Nani’s by just one day. Auwe! Was real good too—Uncle Charlie on steel guitar. Double Auwe!!
Hope you had a good trip back home. Send my greetings to Mrs. Admin—hope she can come next time.
Aloha,
Doug

Aloha Doug:
Yes, inquiring minds would like to know if you will be coming to George's camp in 2007. Julie, Larry... Elizabeth and I will be there for sure! Working on Gordon, too. Dusty, Sheila (anyone else?)? Late night beach reunion in the making! - Maggie |

Hi Maggie,
Great to hear from you. I’m not sure whether I’ll be able to make Uncle George’s workshop in June. It really depends on family and work obligations, and I’ll know better once we get closer to the date. I was bummed I missed it this past summer. Anyhow, it would be great to kanikapila with the late-night beach gang again--so much fun, why sleep?
If you’re ever in the Bay Area, let us know. You’ll fit right in at the open mics and kanikapilas, or even an impromptu mini-kapila like the one I had with Andy.
Aloha,
Doug

| Sounds great, Doug! I am due for a trip to the Bay Area and would love to make it to one of the open mics or kanikapilas down there! Hope Uncle George's workshop will fit in to your schedule next year. It won't be the same without you. - Mags |
