Well, I think the Smokin' Menehunes is just a tiki band. We have 60 or so songs, with all except maybe two or three being vintage Hapa Haole music. The few non Hawaiian songs we do are jazz standards like "I'm confessin'" and "Lover".
But when we perfrom, invariably someone will request a song by Bruddah Iz, and we end up having to stumble through it. That type of Hawaiian music is not our speciality, but people probably prefer it.
