TikiKing- Nice job on everything. Your ukes are awesome! your strumming is steady and the new band sounds great. Keep us all posted on upcoming gigs and ukes.

-Tikitony good to see you, Alean and Marcus again. I hope you guys found somplace cool to hang out after your day in the sunroom under that warm Santa Cruz sun.

Pablus- Dang sorry I missed you two. I had my eyes peeled. I think I may have spotted Angela at one point, but was busy moving some stuff around at the time and I was unsure if it was her. We will hook up Next time when I am not runnin around.

Also big thanks to http://sctikis.com for lending us the tikis for the stage.
