I'll have acoustic guitar with more or less new strings, acoustic bass that needs a battery, guild electric bass that has way less new strings, bongos, rain tube, conch horn ( only one this year since the other doesn't harmonize worth crap...(right Swanky?) and a strat that's way cool. And of course the bronco-billy bucking spa cooler!

Is #130 one of the two penthouse suites? I can't remember, even though I rented one a few years back.

Room 130 is not a penthouse suite. It's located at the top of the stairway coming up from the spa area and before going over the walkway to the next building overlooking the pool. There's a large patio area if front of the room where the jams have taken place during Hukilaus past. It's on the second floor even though the room number indicates it to be on the first floor.

Hula Cat is in the Cabana, bringing the cool Vermont air. Glad to see you're coming man! Just hold the tuna this time.
Jungle J&J - I'll certainly be swinging by to meet you guys. Looks like 130 is the place to be.
T-minus 3 days and counting...

Hi, I don't want to hijack this thread, but it seemed the most appropriate place to ask my question since the posters seem to be of the musician variety. What do you folks think about recording the jams? I am coming to my first Hukilau and it sounds like there will be a lot of informal music. I am considering bringing a small mp3 recorder and mic, but I wasn't sure whether the musicians would care. With actual performances, it's generally easy to ask beforehand if a band minds, but in a casual situation (which the after-hours sounds like) I often find that it can be disruptive to try to interrupt and get permission.
I was also a little unsure if there would just be too much background noise to make a good recording.
Also, it would be a pretty easy matter to burn a few copies of the recordings to cd while at the Hukilau so that they would be readily available to all.
Anyway, I would like to hear your thoughts.
Thanks, Don

Speaking for myself (and only if I'm invited, Jungle Jim) -you're welcome to record anything I play and hopefully I'll have some back-up, via other room party musician/attendees. I'll (try to) be debuting tunes from my CD 'Brad Howland and his Hillbilly Surf Punks--Legends in Their Blown Minds'

I've done a lot of live recordings for good acts and not so good and this venue is always very noisy.
Heck the Mar, during performances, was incredibly noisy.
If you don't mind that, I don't think anyone would mind recording the jams.
But if you start shushing people before the pickers start playing you may get doused in orgeat.
Which isn't an entirely bad thing but certainly not beneficial to microphones.

I can't see why anyone would object to being recorded - but I can only speak for myself and the othe Kats. Record away. TJ may even have a handheld to capture some of the tunes.
