The back yard jams and luaus is where the real Hawaiian music originated it seems. |

Kay:
Could you send a close-up of the double neck steel?
Are you playing anywhere in L.A. Now!

In response to your query, Joe:
They are two separate West Coast WC-8Hs (the acquamarine is tuned to C6 and the blue to B11) on a stand. See pic below.

After a nine-month run last year I am a little tired of playing fixed sets and turn up occasionally at Molly Blooms (San Clemente) on Sundays, Island Bazaar (Huntingdon Beach) on Tuesdays or just jam with good friends when the mood sets in.... I am currently busy recording.

I participated in a great kanikapila at Duke Domingo's place on Vineyard in Honolulu. Me on steel, Dukie on slack key guitar and ukulele, Stan Combis on ukulele, Jay Barino on guitar, Jonathon Castillo on guitar a guy named Dave on slack key guitar and a couple of other kanes just listening. Duke made some incredible grinz: chicken long rice, opihi, purple yams, kalua pig and soft drinks! It is my favorite way to play - no stress, jus' press! _________________ Jack Aldrich
