Especially wonderful that they gave our local performers a chance to be heard across the country. Ledward Ka'apana, Jeff Peterson, Danny Carvalho, and Jake Shimabukuro r o c k e d the house. Good fun!!

Happy New Year to Hawaii! (Now I'm going to bed, even though there are dishes still to be done.)

Often, mr. sueh and I will listen to the re-play from the PHC on late Sunday afternoon. Great way to begin the weekend wind-down.

(17,680 posts)People can get up on stage and dance during the whole show, behind the bands. I've heard him refer to 'the dancers' before but I didn't understand till I saw it. Imagine if you are at a performance in a concert hall and you can just hop on up and start shaking it!
What a gas.
I would like to have a word with whoever told Garrison that he could sing. And listening to him sing (or try) in Hawaiian, especially the Queen's prayer- um, it was brutal, truly painful.
Tip to Garrison, brother, do yourself and all of us a favor and stick to English!
