Hi Everyone,

If you'd like, I posted this clip to YouTube:

http://youtube.com/watch?v=wwvYNW07q0A

It's a short documentary that I directed four years ago, as a teaser to a larger project about the Waikiki Beachboys... native Hawaiian surf instructors and nightclub entertainers from the jazz age up through the '60s. There were two great generations of Beachboys, and even though there are still beachboy concessions on Waikiki Beach today, the music and scene is nowhere near what it was back in the day.

I hope you enjoy the clip. I have tons of interview footage "in the can."
