What did you miss the most?
#48
This kid was amazing, could play better than most adults I've heard, and sing too. He was just hanging out right by my classroom door playing and singing while I graded tests. It was a real treat to hear.

I just miss that variety of music, where if a show hits town on a night I can't go it won't be the last chance to hear live music for months. I didn't think it would be that big of a deal when we planned to move here, but after a while I've realized how much I miss those options. I heard an interesting set of interviews on HPR the other day talking about how few venues there are now compared to the heyday of the 70s, John Osario was talking about how all the musicians he knows who make a living playing music just have to go to Japan or the Mainland, because of what he called the sundown effect: everything closes up at sundown except Waikiki clubs full of tourists. He said that when he was playing a lot there were clubs all over the islands where local musicians could play for local audiences, and those venues are just gone now. Too bad.
