Here is a video from You Tube and the poster says it is Gabby. It is not Gabby, as verified by Martin Pahinui, but we are not sure who it is. Some seem to think Ledward. I really cannot see this video too well, since the quality nis pretty junk and my eyesight is not so good. Who do you think it is?

That's Gabby Manintin, a long-time musician here on Kaua`i. He plays with The Kama`aina's at Waimea Brew (most Thursday nights). I think the youtube footage was actually filmed there. In photo below, he's the one on far right: http://www.midweekkauai.com/2010/10/waipa-kalo-festival/1027_1/
FYI -- there are LOTS of guys named Gabby now. Kaua`i also has bass guitarist Gabby Ornellas. I'm guessing all Gabby's were named in tribute to Pops Pahinui. |

Thanks, Auntie Maria! I knew right off it wasn't the Gabby I was thinking of, sorta sounded like Led but not quite. He is a mean guitar player, though. Thanks for introducing us some someone we didn't know about before. |
