This is one big happy event, or so I have been told... This will be my first, and I am really looking forward to it. Thousands of Ukulele lovers, players, makers, and assorted Hawaiian cultural events.

Keep an eye on: http://www.ukulelefestival.org/page3.html
Information is not up on the web site just yet, but should be available soon.
It is not too early to start making plans.

I will be teaching 'Taro Patch Bass" on my Kona Walkingstick, and I know that Brittni, Herb Ohta Jr, Keoki Kahumoku, Bill Tapia, and others will be performing. A luau with hula performances are also planned.

Aloha,
-Konabob

LOOKS interesting.

Nice sound from such a small stick.
Almost makes me want to pick up bass along with guitar and ukulele

Give 'em, brah! Nothing holds a group of musicians together like a good bass. I have noticed that ukulele groups in particular, just love to have me show up with my bass. Anyway, if you are a slack key guy and play in Taro Patch G, you already know how to play the 3 string. Show up at the Festival, and I will make you an instant slack key bass player. I will also be over in Honolulu at the statewide Ukulele Guild of Hawaii Expo in November - if you needed an excuse to come to Hawaii...
Aloha,

Nancy,
Nice to see you back on the 'patch. I have a ukulele kanika(pizza) tonight (quite a messy sight - playing with pizzas) and may be able to get more information than is available on the web site. The San Diego Ukulele Festival is in Coronado on the 27-28 with Daniel Ho giving some workshops. More information on that one is available on another forum topic.

Pua, these folks don't seem to know how to get their information onto the web. But the
info is available! Try writing to Bob Tomei - ukerascals @ aol.com or to Susan - Ukulelefestival @ cs.com

They will email you with the details, or mail you a brochure. Please come by my booth and say hi!
Aloha,
-Konabob

Oh, I just got your email Craig! Yes, please come by our booth. I will be giving lessons at the booth,
and also will teach a workshop at 2:00 PM. I sent you my exotic "test" for finding out if you can become
a bass player. Let me know how you do.
Aloha,
-Konabob
