Last night

Fun was had by all at the Punahou Carnival last night, although I knew I was going to have one of those nights when I started our opening song in “G” instead of “A”!  I couldn’t quite get in the groove for the rest of the set, but thank god the boys and the band …

Punahou Carnival!

The Punahou Carnival is this weekend, and since all 3 of us are graduates of Punahou it seems only fitting that ManoaDNA perform there!  We’ve performed at the carnival for the last 4 years and before that I performed with Cecilio Rodriguez of C&K, so it’s been an annual thing for me for several years!  …

Thursday golf!

It’s early Thursday morning and it’s still dark outside, but our puppies are up and running around the house like nut cases!  We had to get up at 4:30am this morning because Carla had to catch a flight to Kaua’i to shoot some video for our new IOLANI store.  It’s hard to go back to …

Feeling MUCH better!

I’m almost back to normal except for my voice.  It’ll probably be a few more days before it gets back to normal, but it should be back to 100% by this weekend … just in time for our recording sessions!  My naturopath physician gave me some medication on Monday that really seems to be knocking …

Rainy Tuesday

Aloha everyone!  It looks like the rains have returned to Manoa Valley, which is a welcome relief since the past few days have been hot, humid, and very voggy!   The only bad thing is that our puppies refuse to go outside to use the bathroom when it’s raining, so they end up doing their …

Happy February 1st!

Wow, I can’t believe it’s already February … where did January go??  I’m sure February is going to go by quickly too since it’s filled with special performances and lots of recording work.   This month, we’ll be performing at the Punahou Carnival, the Ukulele Picnic, Pakele Live, and our all-time favorite gig – Twilight @ …

I’m sick!

Good morning everyone!  Well, my worst fears were realized this morning … I lost my voice because of the virus that’s been affecting everyone in my family.  Nick had it first, then Carla, then Carla AGAIN, then Alex , and now me … and no, it’s the common cold – not H1N1!  I started coming …

Busy weekend

We have a full schedule this weekend starting tonight with our regular Friday gig at Lulu’s in Waikiki.  On Saturday we have a radio promotion for the Punahou Carnival in the morning, followed by a performance at Kani Ka Pila Grille in the evening.  Our annual ManoaDNA Golf Club Awards banquet is on Sunday to …

We’re back!

Aloha, everyone!  We just flew in a couple of hours ago, and boy are we glad to be home after such a long trip!  It was great to see our Florida family but it takes forever to get there … 5 hours from Hawai’i to Las Vegas, and another 5 hours to Florida!  Plus, both …
