The Maikai Gents Featuring The Mysterious Miss Mauna Loa have a fantastic new CD coming out this Spring! There’ll be tunes we’ve never before performed live and some familiar favorites; all hapa haole gems to be sure! Some red-hot players and amazing graphic artists have assembled to make this the don’t-miss-disc of the season. You can be a part of the magic! We are over halfway to our fundraising goal to ensure that this disc has the top-rate production value, mastering and packaging (you’re going to love the artwork and images) that it deserves. If you would like to make a donation to help us achieve our goal of presenting to you a first-class Maikai Gents experience (with a target release in May at Tiki Oasis), we have some lovely incentives: For a donation of $25, we will immediately send you six(6) beautiful Maikai Gents stickers that exude Hawaiiana as well as some souvenir songsheets from past shows. We will also send you a CD when it is released. For a donation of $50, we will send you twelve(12) stickers, the songsheets and two(2) CD’s when released. For any donation over $50, we will add to the immediate shipment, a DVD of The Maikai Gents live at Kulak’s Woodshed in Hollywood. This is a fine production, shot with five cameras. It looks like an old-time variety show. The DVD has a running time of 53 minutes, has 16 songs (fully chaptered), features live e-mails from TC’ers with witty responses from the band. Keep an astute eye out for Suicide Sam! If your donation is over $65, you’ll get everything mentioned in #3 and we will add a third CD to your shipment. *Here’s where you can be immortalized along with The Maikai Gents: If you donate $75 or more, we will send you the stickers, the songsheets, the DVD, three(3) CD’s when released, AND WE WILL PRINT YOUR NAME IN THE CREDITS IN THE LINER NOTES AS A GRAND SUPPORTER! Yes, you will be known forevermore as an ardent supporter of fine music and a connoisseur of tiki and Hawaiiana. For a donation of $125, you will get all the merchandise mentioned in #5, add two CD’s for a total of five(5) AND we will give you a PRODUCER’S CREDIT in our liner notes! If you have an appropriate (tiki-related) website you’d like us to print or a business you’d like to have promoted in our packaging, e-mail us to discuss it. Note: If you’d like your name, website, etc. printed in our liner notes, we must have the donation and info by March 15. Note: No extra shipping charges will apply to you when the CD’s are released. We’ll just pack it up and send it to you! Note: All CD’s sent as a result of your donation will be autographed by the band, so let us know how to personalize them for you. They’d make great gifts, too. All donations should be made through http://www.paypal.com to [email protected] Be sure your shipping address gets to us. We hope this all does not seem crass. It’s very expensive to produce a high quality CD and package independently and we absolutely appreciate your help in making this all a reality. Wow! This has been a huge project for us and we give you our sincere thanks for your support, not only monetarily, but through coming to see us, sending us friendly notes, encouraging us to make this CD, and for just being a wonderful group of tiki lovers! You have our unending mahalos. -Iuka Grogg Here are a couple screen shots from the DVD: Spirit of aloha abounds! Okole Maluna!
