Aloha Kanes and Wahines,

I was treated tonight with a private piano session by Mr.Martin Denny playing his lovely tunes. We sat around and talked story for a couple of hours along with his daughter.

He's truly down to earth and a character! The main reason I was there is he wanted a tiki for his birthday that just pass but didn't get one. So that's when I got the call.

I told him I won't be able to start his 5 footer till I get back from da mainland. "No worries"

Here are jus some of da pics I took. It was special so I'll have to save some for my personal photo album.

this is of me and Mr D. in front of my carving that I will be bringing to "Da Show" I said earlier that I would sell it for a certain amount but I might put it up for auction at "da show" ....don't know yet. I'll include this pic with the tiki for the new owner. If I see Mr.Denny befor I leave I'll try to get him to sign da pic other wise I'll just sign it myself.

here he's teaching me how its done. when da man speaks, you better listen!

this was special. He played me a few songs.

some of his exotic musical toys
