I love this. You guys did a wonderful job. Who is playing bass? I KNOW I am hearing bass - it can't just be the slack key player, no? This is really, really, really good.

Me ke aloha,

Auntie Wanda

@wjc1952 slack key you play the bass also, it just rocks!!! Awesome guys.

I'm in Manvel, TX and yep remember the meetup group for ukes I beleive Gerald started a while back. I went to two and then my dad got sick, things never been then same since. Slack key has always been in my heart ever since I played my first song. Do you still have jam sessions. I'd love to come by. I have my Sigma Acoustic steel string guitar, 6 strings as well as my kamaka 4 stringer soprano. I'm A little rusty though.
