Dreams: Cultures throughout the Earth accept that dreams lack continuity; we sleep, and in our dreams experience realities only acceptable in the context of dreaming. Upon opening our eyes, we close the door of randomness, cancel our relationship with the unexplainable, and press “play” on the parade of precepts we’ve carried with us from our past. Perhaps we may, if inspired, allow ourselves to discover this rumored paradise known as “now” by treating our waking reality as though it is a mere dream occurring whilst we lay peacefully in the dark of night. Or, as a dear friend once said, “May your reality become a dream.” ~Makana
"Will I ever see you again" made me cry thinking of someone I love who left this world. Geeez shoulda listened to it at home instead of at work!!! LOL lovely work earth brother!! ima keep listening
Cheers for the add earth brutha, im looking forward to getting some time foa sit and listen to your slack key :) come to my page foa sit and listen to our common past and other dimensions :D
Aloha, Makana! I had such a hard week last week :( But listening to "Venus and the..." honestly lifted my spirits! It's good for the soul. It was awesome to see you in San Francisco last month! Looking forward to the next time! Will send you a couple of photos from when you were here, soon. Hope you're doing well.
I have a funny story: Was just in Honolulu for a few days (most of time on Kona). Had just been to Rumfire for some music the other Friday, sitting there saying, "I wish Makana was playing! I wish we could see him...why do we keep missing him?!" Then went to Gaku Sushi and lo and behold, there you were sitting at the bar, too. I would have gone up and asked for a photo with you and gushed about how much I love your music, but you had dinner company and I didn't want to intrude. Looks like I may get to see you in SF, though, after all! (Also, Gaku Sushi is SO Oiishi!!! It's one of the best I've been to! Manabu (sp?) and the crew are awesome, I'm sure you'd agree!}
MAGIC, MAGNIFICENCE & MASTERY were the watchwords of your last evening performance at the Monarch Room as the first Curator of Hawaiian Music. You rocked the house with Lono, Lopaka & Buck from beginning to end. Every detail, stage prop and note were all deeply considered and the tributes to your teachers and influences were all from the heart. You have set the bar very high for anyone who follows in this esteemed music series. I hope you can return again soon to this elegant room and take us all on another journey through the vast sea of ki ho'alu.
THANK YOU for putting up one of the sassiest (and my fave) song Necksnap Blues! You KNOW it's what I'm always requesting from you! LOL! Hope to see you soon! ALOHA, Cindy
Do you have any gig around the bay area? I left Kauai 3 weeks ago and moved down here in Hao'le nation, lol. It's all good though. I'm here in Napa California where it's a beautiful place to live in too but different from the island. It's getting tougher and tougher anywhere we live but gotta do what we gotta do. Like they said, "you can take the boy from the island but not the island from the boy." Anyways, more power to your music!
