My First Friday Gig Downtown Honolulu
It was the First Friday I had ever attended. They had already banned drinking in the streets. The location was downtown Hotel Street. This was Hawaii's red-light district once. They opened up clubs, bars, and restaurants again. The streets were packed with party goers. I had one of my nieces and nephews passing out flyers. We had a little spot inside the club, where my other niece, Lela, was selling hotdogs and sushi. The bands lined up were the Winners of the Maitai Rumble, Jahlivity, Trish's band, and my friend’s son was supposed to be the DJ. He was hanging with his girlfriend in the crowd. We were having technical difficulties. The sound guy offered by the club decided to show up late. Someone pulled one of the main chords. I guess it was someone from a previous promotion, who didn't make the club money. So, out of spite, he decided to sabotage the show. Trish Nalei did her thing without the band and without sounds. She started jamming with her ukulele. She managed to keep the people in the club. She saved the show. I appreciate her. The band that came with her was quite mad that time didn't allow them to play.
