So many Mahalos/So little Time!!! Gonna give it a shot anyway : James & Christie > Can't thank you both enough for all your hard work and the opportunity for having the Kats be a part of Hukilau this year. Your kindness of recognition onstage at the Maikai was unexpected and touching. Crazed Mugs > Mahalo for all your support all the time and your invaluable help (at all hours)for helping haul our gear from one venue to another at the event. Performing with us onstage at the Mar on Friday and having us record on the your Cd was a stone groove. Waitiki > To say you Cats were a musical treat will never be enough! Hanging at the hotel and getting to know you offstage was a trip... Thanks for the Cd's and the Hawaiian Candy and would someone please tell Mr.Ho that the "Profesa" has his copies of the Haole Kats Cd's so he can finally get his punk-ass dance-groove Slip(& the Spinouts)> For those of you who might not know, Slip performed a kick-ass set on Thursday night but then hung through the entire event from the Cabana everynight thru the Home Bar Tour.. Thanks for your interest in the Ukes & Steel and we ain't done with you yet .... DJ Jazzy (Exotica) Jeff > Not only were your sets on Friday a treat for me but the way you seemed to always be there for Mr. Drasnin (especially on Saturday)Thanks for the CD's and since hooking up with you & Deb at Exotica this past summer I would like to say I could not be prouder of 2 Homies from my Hometown.. Tell Deb to keep wearing those awesome shoes and be sure to play "South Sea Lullaby" for her at bedtime !! "Where are my White Castles" ??? Tongohiti > Couldn't catch your Maikai gig as we were working but everyone said it was killer. It was a blast working with you up in Atlanta and that I did get to hear. Stay in touch... Intoxicators > Surfs Up !!! These were some of the nicest and talented guys to work with... Looking forward to working with you up at Trader Vics (Atlanta) Stay in touch !! Mr.Drasnin > Your kind words to us (in public and private) will never be forgotten along with your magical music that you shared with everyone. We will send you those tracks when they are finished as promised and it must be said that a more talented,humble man we will never meet !!! Pia & Drew > Thank you for having us in your home for the bar tour.. Your thoughtfulness,your kindness,and help during the afternoon and evening was unprecedented by any standard. We didn't forget about Christmas or the great surf music Drew kept playing.. Please say hi to Kern and Elke for us along with Chip & Andy (Who because of the weather related circumstances we were prevented from visiting on the last stop) The King > From meeting and working with you at Exotica (Fitzgeralds and Chef Shangrila)to Hukilau you are the hardest working Cat in Tiki Show Business, not to mention the most talented. Hail to the King!!! Alice > Where there is a King there must be a Queen (so it is written...) From the S.C.O.T.S show in Chicago to Your performance at Hukilau only one phrase will work "you are amazing " May the Formika be with you To :KuKu,Jim,Lake Surfer,Vic&Susan,Dade City Frazier party mongers & son, Poly-Pop,Mr.(John)Orlando,Crazy Al,Vern,Unga(party central)Bunga,BK&Niki,Kim,Mr&Mrs.Val,Humu2,Hanford,MeanGene,Tikilicious Mr&Mrs.Swanky(ok not quite yet),our Cabana Detroit neighbors,Tiki Soap For those of you who have not yet fallen asleep reading this post,the most important is saved for here at last. The Biggest Mahalo on the planet goes to: (insert drum roll here)> "Everyone" attending this years killer event. Without all of you it would not exist. We would not have met you,heard your kind words,shook your hands,hugged you,enjoyed your artistry,your music, your intoxication,and most importantly the chance to cherish your FRIENDSHIP !!! As the songs says "On a Coconut Island we'd love to be Castaways with each and every one of you" [Ok ,song lyric embellishment is allowed this once] Peace and Thanks to all !!!
