The thing that is most sad to me, besides the fact that this great performer is gone, is the HUGE disappointment I felt knowing that this show would never make it to the public. I’m a huge fan of music DVDs and live shows, so I’ve seen what the world can offer, and Michael would have put all of those shows to shame. After every segment, I kept thinking, “Damn! That would’ve been so cool!” The amount of people he would’ve drawn would’ve been record-breaking, the amount of pull he still has is unprecedented and the huge gap he left when he passed away may never be filled.

So this Thanksgiving, I reflect and give thanks. In this world of hi-speed, low-attention media, there will never be another Michael Jackson. Manoa DNA is very lucky to have even a small fraction of faithful fans, and this Thanksgiving I am thankful for each and everyone of you. I know we may never be able to produce a show like I saw last night, but to me that doesn’t matter. Don’t get me wrong, we will never stop working to try to get to that point, but even if I too died today, I would be grateful for what I have experienced. You guys keep this dream going, you guys are what help Manoa DNA grow, and for that, I am thankful a million times over.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone, I hope you all enjoy a safe and stuffed Thanksgiving day.

I’m very sorry that the stream of our gig didn’t work at Kani Ka Pila on Saturday…that’s really junk! We will try and figure it out soon I promise! But Lulus will work all the tine so please tube in for that performance!!

I had a pretty quiet last couple of days. We are slowly getting in to our 3rd CD and the songs seem to be coming together. I also started writing a new song for Japan that got sent to the D and N and is awaiting feedback. Hopefully we can start working on it soon!

I hope all is well with all of you! Unfortunately I have two mid term examinations this week so I will be pretty busy! Wish me luck please!!

Until we blog again…
AK
