Here is a link to a page that has the set from Bamboo Ben on March 29th.
I pulled it off my camcorder so there is a lot of background noise. The clips still sound pretty good and you can tell everybody is having a great time. The files are .mov so you will need quicktime to dig em.
Enjoy,
Chongolio

Chongolio,
Very cool of you to do this!
Now I can put them on a disc and sell the bootlegs at the next big TC event....

BOng,
Very nice work on the Steel Guitar. You Menehunes all sound great. I especially enjoyed Sleepwalk. Keep it up y'all.

Great work Chonger. You gotta come back down soon, it was nice meeting you.
My buddy Lapu video taped the show. If I e-mail you a video clip in quicktime, would you be able to put it up?

P-pop, I will bring bootleg Menehune shirts to go with your bootleg CD's. We can meet in the parking lot. Ha! Bong, Actually its not selfless, by doing this stuff, I can procrastinate doing the work I should be doing.
Lucky, If I have the server space I can host Lapu's video for a little while. Unfortunately, I will probally have to find a new home to host the Menehune page sooner than later. I am almost up to my limit and will need to free up some space for a some upcoming projects.

You know what Chong? I was screwing around with the video earlier and I think the file size would be way to big. Your music site is already above and beyond.
Bong, can you believe they are already bootlegging our stuff. When are we gonna get a cut from the t-shirt sales? Next thing you know we're gonna have to sue napster just like Metallica. Ya, sure....

I always love the song Sleepwalk... (song 4 reminded me of it's a small world after all - what was that song?)
Thanks for letting those who missed the H.T.O.C. Crawl hear the show.

The Smokin' Menehunes appreciate all the kind words. We on the other hand cringe when we hear little musical bobbles we committed in the tunes here and there.
We've only been practicing about 6 weeks, but we will continue and polish up our tunes.

Damn, I hate to be a whiney crybaby but no matter what I do to my piece of shit computer I can't open this up!! It gives me a message "invalid file". I don't pretend to be a big computer whiz, I just use it to do research, comunicate messages, computer drafting (Autocad, Cadam, etc)& to f*ck around on Tiki Central, but when I want to check something out like the Smokin' Menehunes or the pics on shutterfly I get nada. This comes on top of going out to the Hanalei today and taking a bunch of great pics of the Islands Room and elsewhere with a freinds new digital camera and then I come home and can't get this thing to even view my photo card, much less print out. My computer is kind of a Frankenstein creation and I'm beginning to think Igor grabbed the "criminal brain" instead of the "normal brain" (metaforically speaking of course). Well, now that I've got that off my chest I think I'll head back on down to the Hanalei for more Mai Tais. At least I got to see most of the Smokin' Menehune's set LIVE & UNCENSORED last weekend at Ben's, so I guess I can't bitch too much.

Hey shipwreckjoey, have you got the Quicktime plugin yet? Haul yer butt over to http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/ and grab it. You will then be validated, if not downright affirmed...

Hey all, I am going to be taking the Smoking Menehune songs off my server after this weekend (Feb 1, 04) to make room for my new site. Soooo, if you want these files better get 'um quick.

Chongolio,
I just want to let everyone know that those tunes were done before we had our great bass player Tiki Mick. It's a much, much fuller sound now.
