I just found this thread...two years too late. There needs to be a msgboard bat-signal for things like this. Hope your trip was good in any case, Andy.
And Jack, you'll be horrified to learn that "Jawaiian" has not only NOT been "extinguished", but is as popular as ever. In fact, the ad agency I just finished a big wireless TV campaign for used insipid Jawaiian music as the signature soundtrack for the commercials.
I find it sadly ironic how much I hate "local" Hawaiian music, and yet when Shellac played a show about a block away from where I worked a few years ago, I blew it off in favor of taking a much needed nap at home.
I apologize for Jack Johnson, as well.
