Yes boys and girls, it is almost time for the Mercedes-Benz Championship once again.  We had to take it all out of the box, clean it, and put it back – checking for anything we needed to repair/replace before the setup in December…

We also made two more holes for the “Winner’s Flagpoles” everyone sees when they drive up to the golf course…

6 days of work (18th-25th with the weekend off) smack-dab in the middle of “Slow-Season” – awesome!

This was a fundraiser for Mana’o Radio – Cathy Collins – that happened tonight…

It was actually pretty incredible.  6 local acts.  Erick Gilliom was the last before break, Willie K was the end of the show…

The highlite of the night was when Willie came out singing opera.  He did it as a joke, but he sounded incredible!  So much talent in that guy!  Even on a bad night, he’s no ka oi!

Finally got to setup a show in the new venue – “On The Lawn”…

I should have taken a few pics of this thing but from the 12th to the 15th I had no time.  The setup was suppose to be a few 4 hr calls, but since we’d never setup out there it ended up taking 3 1/2 days (if you saw pics you would understand why – it was quite a setup)…

Nuff Said was the entertainment.  I hadn’t seen any of those guys for 5+ years, it was like a reunion.  They really kicked butt; surprised the hell out of me by playing songs other than their own, and doing it well!  I was the Stage Manager/A2 for the actual show itself…

I really had a good time doing this thing – worked my butt off and had a great time doing it!

Ran spot for this one – I loved the show. Takes you back in time – to a better time…

Just came home from it…

Looooonnnnnggggg Day that just ended.  I really don’t know where to begin, so I won’t…

Got nothing to say that wouldn’t be totally negative…

It’s just that I was expecting a multi-band gig, not a DJ for 5 hours (totally wrong gig for that venue)…
