Aloha Lou,
This is fantastic news! What a cool event. I am so sorry we are going to miss it .
We'll be out of town for this show, but were wondering of you may have another show in the works for Ernie. Let us know and we'll be there.

That's great Louie! Glad you could work that out. For those that don't know much about Ernie Menehune I'll post some quick info about him and his village over in general.

Maybe we can interest some people who might not be looking in events.

It was a great night at the Kon Tiki. Kona Chris took the brunt of Ernie's jokes. Better watch where you sit next time Chris!
Here are a couple of teaser pics.
The rest are posted on our website. There are six pages of photos and some of the pictures are a bit redundant. We needed to post them all because a few people need to have access to them. We'll edit them down as soon as we can.

It looks like this could be a monthly show, so we hope to see those that couldn't make it this time around.
Ernie will be hosting a luau at Menehune Village on September 30th. You can call his keyboard player Larry Armstrong to purchase tickets. His cell phone number is (520) 490-3279. I'll keep the post over in general updated with luau info. http://www.tikiroom.com/tikicentral/bb/viewtopic.php?topic=20483&forum=1&0

You're welcome Jeff. Glad you like them!!!
Ben, funny you should ask about the ghost, Mark took this picture back by the entrance. No one was smoking or even sitting back there.
