Aloha Ahi Ahi from O’ahu UFOhana,

I’m inbound from HNL this Wednesday which means we’re having our regularly Vanikapila this Saturday.

It’s been nice being with family and also quite nice to come home to one. Mahalo to all of you for your patience and support.

Click above to join us this Saturday.

Click here to register for this Saturday.

We will probably be practicing a few songs from our County Fair Gig book. So bring them if you’re participating. Again please register ASAP if you will be participating this year. Mahalo to those that already have.

Click below to view my Tri-coder Readings from the away mission so far. I’ve taken quite a few images and videos, thanks in advance for taking the time to view them.

Day 1 – Waiting for Beam Up from Kakoki (Scotty).

There’s a very long section in there of the King Kamehameha Parade, which yesterday was his actual birthday, or you can just stream the video recording on KHON Channel 2 stream here. Note to self, no recording parades next time . . .

I did manage to attend two and half Kanikapila while here. 1 at the Windward Shopping Maill, 1 at the Police Substation at Waikiki and 1 today, actually a gig at the Barefoot Beach Cafe, where Leonard from the Waikiki Kani was performing. I was able to play along, at a distance, with a few of their songs and recorded a few of the Hulas.

a salty breeze fills the air,
laughter from the sea.

Until Saturday!

Aloha Ahi Ahi UFOhana,

It’s been awhile, hope you’re all doing well. It’s been somewhat of an emotional roller coaster back here, but we’re managing . . .

I wanted to update everyone on the County Fair Away Mission. We’re scheduled to play on the opening day, June 30, 2p-3p at the Community Stage.

Map below from the County’s Vendor Handbook, it’s from 2018 but our stage is in the same location.

As an added bonus to performing on opening day, Dan-o just informed me that they’re providing free admission just for that day. See the following to see if you qualify.


Special Day Friday, June 30:
Ages 12 and under: free
Ages 65 and over: free (I’m sure there’s a bunch of us that qualifies for this!)
Veterans with ID: free (and I’m sure there’s a bunch of Vets in our group as well. )

No tickets required. On Friday, June 30, anyone qualifying for free admission (ages 12 and under, ages 65 and older, and veterans with ID) does not need a ticket. The Box Office staff will scan you in at the gates. Free admission tickets on June 30 will not sell out.

All Fair tickets must be purchased online. There are no ticketing kiosks at the gates, a QR code to purchase tickets will be posted at all entry points.


For details and to Register for the event click here, so I can get an idea of the head count for the stage. Also, if you don’t qualify for the Free Tickets mentioned above, type NEED TICKET in the Notes field when you register.

I will need to provide the County with a final ticket Count ASAP so please register ASAP to RSVP a SOS (Space On Stage). Mahalo.

Speaking about stages and Kanikapila. Here are images from my search for Kanikapilas on O’ahu. I’ll keep update the album as I find them.
