I had the opportunity to sit in with Aldon Sanders (uke) and Stan Meidinger (bass) at the Pono Hawaiian Grill in Santa Cruz, CA. Fellow forumite Norman Markowitz was there and filmed the gig and put some clips up on Youtube (thanks Norm!).

I'm playing a late 40's Rick bakelite going direct to the PA. The tune is Ka'a Ahi Kahului, otherwise known as "the choo-choo song". I'd never played this song so please excuse the clams.

Hope you enjoy!

Cool stuff Bill!
Any gig with a big Tiki behind you can't be bad at all!
Wish there were some Hawaiian guys I could jam with in my neck of the woods..... Sad

Great fun, wish I'd been there. Holoholo Ka'a was my favorite. Very Happy If there are any clams in there, Bill, you are probably the only person who knows.
