Alooooha UFOhana,

We’re meeting at the UFOHQ this Friday and Saturday. Friday, 7p-10p, BYOKauKau (Potluck, healthy main dish), BYOMusicStands and Saturday 2p-4p, BYOB&S (Beverage & Snacks if you like), of course, always bring some extra Aloha to share with all! We will be practicing our Mele (Songs) and Hula (Hawaiian Dance) for our July 2nd, 2-2:45p, performance at the fair. I will be providing a 2017 Fair Flight Manual to all attending for the event. Mahalo Nui Loa to Maliona for allowing us to participate in this fantastic event once again!

Btw, though we are out of tickets for the event, all are welcome to participate either onstage or in the audience (we can always use the extra applause and Ukuleles out there). In fact, invite your friends and family too! Tell them it’ll make for good Youtube blackma… uh Videos. If you are participating, please meet behind the 3 Twins Stage an hour before performance (just like the last time). Please find someone to share a music stand and Flight Manual with as we may be limited in space onstage. Also, keep the front row clear for our plugin musicians and bass player. Please be kind to those around you and if possible allow our shorter Ukulele Pilots to be in front. I’m going to try and push for 8 songs this year (4 hulas and 4 mele), so the sooner we get setup the better. Please wear you best Hawaiian attire and remember, “Let the Funshine In!”

We had a busy Friday and Saturday last week, click the collages for album access:

Friday was great at the Elks, Joe Tato even cooked us a special dinner. Mahalo to Brudda Mike and Joe for opening up the Lodge to us!

Saturday it was onward to the Sonoma Valley Woman’s Club, amazing there was no NASCAR traffic!

Uke-Ku
golden grass waving,
leaf shadows dances below,
a breeze plays through trees.

Take care everyone! See you soon.

Aloha A Hui Hou,

Aloha All,

Posting a quick one here . . .  you may notice we’re missing the previous week’s post. There was a problem and I had to restore from the week previous. Anyway, we’re back on line now . . .

We’ve been cleared to meet at the Elk’s this Friday! Mahalo to Brudda Mike, Joe and the Elk-ders for hosting us once again. I understand that a dinner will be available for purchase as well. We’ll be there from 7-10pm-ish, BYOGear (music stands, lights, etc.) and BYAloha! Dress and think cool thoughts as I hear we’re not quite out of the heat wave.

Saturday, we’ll be at the Sonoma Valley Woman’s Club. I understand that NASCAR will be in full swing so you may want to account for traffic delays. Usual runtime 2-4pm. Mahalo to the Sonoma Valley Wahine and Hula Mai for hosting us!

Maika’i to the Hokulea and crew for their legendary voyage. Here’s a link to KITV 4 in Honolulu . . . http://www.kitv.com/story/35689533/slideshow-hokuleas-homecoming

Ok, tired from weed whacking and mowing the front lawn/weed garden/dirt pile . . .

UkEkU
we move in circles,
infinite cycles of friends,
waves upon a shore . . .

See you Soon!

Aloha Nui Loa,
