Music by Rolinda Bean (can get a CD on CD Baby) and backing vocals by Mana Hasegawa for the Keala Ching "Nani Kaua`i" hula video. Mahalo Braddah Bill Bush for letting us know who did the beautiful singing on that video. |

If you'll notice he's only using his fingers to play, pinky included. Looks like his thumb is just an anchor, until he finally uses it briefly around the 1:20 mark. Pretty sweet & so passionately played. |

Looks like a swell parade, Derek. We get nomo Christmas parade in Cleveland. I think it may be because of finances, but it has been many, many years since a Christmas parade here. Very sad, yeah? But we would probably freeze to death watching one anyhow. For sure the people in the parade would not be wearing slippahs. |

Braddah Ed: I am so sorry if my grammar is lacking. I have had poor education. We nomo education in Cleveland, either. My kumu teaches only hula and no Pidgin and she is a Cleveland girl, too. We are all sadly uneducated.
Merry Christmas to you. |
