I went to a killer 3 band surf show at the Lava Lounge in Hollywood, in 2002 or so, and was very happily surprised to hear that the Mai Kai Gents were playing alos. all of my surf friends were like what the hell is this old people Hawaiian music?
I told them to shut up and enjoy.
some liked it, some not so much.

I tried. just like I try to get some tiki people to like surf.

That seems to be a recurring theme for a lot of Hapa Haole bands: Some people (like me) asbolutely love it! others not so much!

For me, what's not to like about gentle, beautiful music? As hectic as my day is, soft music is like my oasis sometimes!

Judd is an awesome entertainer!
