Swanky, I remember us meeting that night at the first Hukilau like it was yesterday. I like the way The Hukilau has grown but the intimacy of that first one was great. I recently emailed Christie and Otto with similar comments.

I also remember Sven, King and I hanging out most of the weekend. Watching the two of them brutally pick at each other was an entertainment event in itself. And it kept them busy so they didn’t pick on me!

Do you remember that there were about 12 or so of us that had dinner at Trader Vic's that second night before all the festivities started? What a connection I felt.

Pablus, I don’t think I have seen you since Brad opened his place in Augusta. Or maybe it was Hukilau 2004. I will look forward to seeing you. King and I first met either at the closing of the Kahiki in Columbus, Ohio (which is were Jeff and I first met – if I remember correctly).

And Jeff, what can I say, can’t wait to see your lecture on Exotica music. I will be the one in the back asking inane questions like, “What color shirt did Arthur Lyman wear when he recorded Yellow Bird?” or “What kind of car did Martin Denny drive when he played the San Diego Auditorium?” So get ready!

I am going to be coming in on Wednesday and staying until Monday. I am certainly up for any get togethers (translation: Day trip shenanigans) while there so anyone can give me a call. My cell is 843.514.5565 so lock and load.

Ben, looking forward to seeing you and I am going to have to locate ome lobsters for the trip! After all, it is my musical specialty.

And a shout out to Crazy Al ! ! ! Where is that picture of the Hulilau II Piggy back ride?
