KTUH Playlist: XMAS, December 25, 2013, 6-9 AM

 I subbed in for Arnie's show, The ABCs of Zoocryptology again. I covered his show last year as well. This year it went alright, but nowhere near as well as last year. I think that last year had a much better playlist (which happened to have lasted for 6 hours), but this show was a lot more random. I had a lot of technical foul ups as well which made me very disappointed in myself. Also, I got several calls last year telling me they enjoyed my programming, but this year I didn't get a single caller. I hope that there was at least one person somewhere who enjoyed what I was pumping out into the airwaves.
Meh.

USED BLUES: KTUH Playlist 12/7/13, Saturday 9 PM - Midnight

So, I'm back in Aloha Land (I arrived at HNL on 10 November) after a 6 month stint on Mainlandia working for one of the government's various branches of the great and grand Alphabet Soup. Now that I'm back I'm looking to graduate from UH Manoa after the Spring 2014 Semester and then I'll be moving on to bigger and better things, namely more alphabet soup and then the French Foreign Legion. In the meantime I'll hopefully be getting a new show on KTUH which I will call USED BLUES. The name for the potential show is derived from a second hand clothing store that existed on Route 9 in the bleak downtown section of some nameless borough in Western Massachusetts in the early 2000s. I had always been amused by the word play (the sign for the store had a logo featuring a pair of blue jeans) and double meaning in a term like "used blues," and I had always thought it would be a good name for a band, a record, a radio show, or some other project and now that time has finally come to retrieve that phrase from Ye Olde Memory Banks of Doom and deliver it unto worldly prominence which it so dearly deserves. So, now at this time and place and this KTUH the time is finally right to bring Used Blues to the masses, and a more fitting time could seldom be derived.

Used Blues will be a program focusing on Alternative Country (Alt Country for short), New Blues, Americana, and other alternatives such as Cow Punk, Country Rock, Blues Rock, Country Blues, and maybe even some Indie Folk/Folk Rock and Soul. This is meant to be a modern take on Roots music and I think it's going to make a very musically interesting radio show.

Why alt country? Why not alt country? To me it seems like an under represented genre in and of itself. Alt country is to country what alt rock is/was to rock, simply stated in its title, it's an alternative to the more formulaic, mainstream commercialism that is present in pop country and rock. Alt country is a more stripped down, lo-fi, back to basics version of the contemporary version of the country genre that most people are more familiar with. It infuses elements of rock and roots music with a punk ethos that creates a totally different experience than the fare one might experience on country music radio station.

Why new blues? Well...because blues music is an American art form that is vibrant, alive, and evolving into a new 21st century sound. Modern blues is raw and powerful. The sound has evolved a lot from the traditional roots of blues music, but the depth of sound and meaning of the music continues to resonate in  the same way spirit of the genre's original purveyors.

With alt country and new blues, I'm bringing modern contextualization of  traditional American roots music into a textured landscape of sound of raw, powerful music that isn't being featured elsewhere. The show that I'm trying to put together should expand people's musical horizons and get them tapped into new old sounds from all around and the underground. It should be pretty interesting.

A Taste of Things to Come

November's gone, and so comes December.
All these days of infamy keep repeating
Over and over
Right in front of me

The winter's here
And I depose the season
destroy the cheer
Sit composed  and calm
To disguise the fear

Some days you shave 
and some days you don't
My secret disdain is a rosy cliche 
that I greet with a smile in the morning

The seasons change with no repose
and time marches onward
inexorable as the day's end
Push on forward
and are deign disdain
without care for right or wrong 
until our time is done and gone

Lucero - Drink 'Till We're Gone

Ife is short
Despite of your plans
So tell the girls they're pretty while you can
'cause one day they're gone
And all you got left
Some empty bottles and an old country song
Plays on and on

I wasted my time
With these cigarettes
And these ashes are all i got left
Watch this old town
Nothing's left for me
Wash downstream
And into the sea

Because this big old river
Will kill us in time
'till then we'll drink it's weight
In cheap beer and wine
We can drink just as fast
As the river is strong
And we'll drink 'till we're gone

Definitions*

People are often really confused about the ideas of race and identity in Hawaii. Race and identity are complex issues and and of themselves, but in a place like Hawaii such issues become quite convoluted, especially for outsiders who may becoming from more ethnically homogenous locales. Even for someone such as myself who has dwelled in this archipelago for a number of years, questions of race and identity are often times still very daunting (even more so for those of us trying to figure out how we fit into this tiny melting pot in the Pacific).
I am often at a loss to explain the Hawaiian situation to outsiders. Many of them simply cannot seem to grasp the intricacies of how race and identity fit into a place like Hawaii, especially when they try to view Hawaii as merely another state in the United States, adapting the purview of privileged people living at the top of society in a land that was long ago colonized and had its original people scattered to the hinterlands where they may be forgotten so those whom inherited the land may live with a clear conscience. In truth I am over simplifying, but in fact Hawaii is not like any other state. Hawaii is/was a nation of people. What is now a state was once a free, sovereign kingdom that was creating a niche of power for itself in the Pacific when its rulers were illegally overthrown by a cabal of rich foreigners even before it was illegally annexed to the US by a rogue military officer's coup d'etat. I must digress, as I'm getting off topic.
A common occurrence frequently take place when people find out that my ex-wife was born and raised in Hawaii:

"Oh, is she Hawaiian?" they ask.
"No," I reply in short, deadpan brevity.
"But, she was born in Hawaii?"
"Yup."
"So, she is Hawaiian."
"Nope."
This is the point where I start getting blank stares from heads cocked with confusion.
"But people from Hawaii are Hawaiian," they start to stammer a bit with uncertainty.
"No," I reply, "HAWAIIANS are Hawaiian."
*Blank stares and lack of comprehension*
"Hawaiian is an ethnicity..." and this is where people's eyes start to gloss over, "...so people born in Hawaii aren't necessarily "Hawaiians" unless they're actually Hawaiian," and this is the point where they begin to drool à la Homer Simpson.
"...ok, so she's not Hawaiian. What is she?"
"Well, she's mostly X and Y."
"Are her parents from Hawaii?"
"No. They're from N and F mostly, but they've lived in Hawaii for almost 40 years."
"And you've lived there for about 7 years. Well, you guys are all locals anyway."
"Um no, "local" is also an ethnic designation in Hawaii..."
"Wha..." heads now begin to implode.
"Are Hawaiians local?"
"Sort of, but it's really complicated."
"Well, if someone is born in Hawaii they're Hawaiian."
"NO!" at this point I strangle the person or walk away shaking my head.

Understanding race and identity in Hawaii is complicated and confusing, but you can at least get a firm grasp on it if you really try. People like me are referred to as kama'aina. I don't know what the proper term for someone born in Hawaii who is not Hawaiian and no one has been able to give me a reasonable answer for that. However, those issues are vastly less important than understanding what a Hawaiian is. In Fall 2011 I took a class with Daviana McGregor called "The Hawaiians" at the University of Hawaii and I have reprinted the following technical definitions so that others may gain a slight bit of clarity.

HAWAIIAN -

 NATIVE HAWAIIAN: In 1921, the U.S. Congress created the Hawaiian Homes Commission and defined the "native Hawaiians" who can apply for leases to the lands which it administers as: "Any descendant of not less than one-half part of the blood of the races inhabiting the Hawaiian islands previous to 1778." The Admissions Act defined the beneficiaries of the ceded public lands trust as "native Hawaiians as defined in the Hawaiian Homes Commission act, 1920." Hawaiian Homes Commission Act, Pub. L. No. 67-34, 42 stat. 108

 HAWAIIAN: The Native American Programs Act, passed by Congress in 1974 defined Hawaiian as "Anyone, any of whose ancestors lived in the area known today as the Hawaiian Islands, prior to 1778." This is basically the definition used by Bishop Estate, Alu LIke, and Queen Lili'uokalani Children's Center in defining their beneficiaries. The Naive American Programs Act of 1974, Pub. L. No. 93-644 § 801, 88 Stat. 2291

 NATIVE HAWAIIAN: In November 1993, Public Law 103-150, The Apology Law, defined "Native Hawaiian" as "any individual who is a descendent of the aboriginal people who, prior to 1778, occupied and exercised sovereignty in the area that now constitutes the State of Hawai'i." Pub. L. No. 103-150, 107 Stat. 1510.


INDIGENOUS PEOPLES -

The Unites Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples adopted September 7, 2007, recognizes the rights of all indigenous peoples, including native Hawaiians. The United Nations considered for adoption the Draft Declaration of the United Nations Working Group on Indigenous Population at its Eleventh Session in 1993. The Cobo Report, "Study of the Problem of Discrimination Against Indigenous Populations," was completed for the United Nations in 1987, after an eleven year study of indigenous populations in 37 different countries throughout the world. It stated the following definition of indigenous populations:

Indigenous communities, peoples, and nations are those which, having a historical continuity with preinvasion and pre-colonial societies that developed on their territories, consider themselves distinct from other sectors of the societies now prevailing in those territories, or parts of them. Thy form at present non-dominant sectors of society and are determined to preserve, develop, and transmit to future generations their ancestral territories, and their ethnic identity, as the basis of their continued existence as peoples, in accordance with their own cultural patterns, social institutions, and legal systems.

NATIVE AMERICAN PEOPLES -

The U.S. Congress has recognized the sovereignty of over 550 American Indian, Eskimo, and Aleut nations, tribes, and peoples up to 1999. There are more than 2 million Native Americans and Alaska Natives, 20 percent of whom live on 314 reservations. Native Hawaiins are not yet formally recognized as a sovereign nation.

Jet Set




On this Earth, everything comes to an end in due time.
We try not to mourn too much at the passing of an epoch,
but each era closes in bittersweet sorrow none the less.
We here in Honolulu bear witness this evening to the passing
of an era.
In the past decade there haven't been more things that have
kept me going than KTUH Honolulu. In times good and bad, Ktuh Honolulu has been a
constant source of motivation and inspiration, and it has provided
my inner warrior with a much needed soundtrack to fight forward and
keep marching steadily forward.
In all that time, Dj mr.nick has been a mainstay on the Honolulu
airwaves. His show, the Jet Set, brought me a lot of much needed joy
and comfort. For years I was excited just at the opportunity to be able
to tune in to his show, but then when it finally became time for me to
become a part of the KTUH ohana, I was privileged to have been trained
by him. Now, after all this time, Nick's time to pass the torch along has
finally come.
Tonight is truly the end of an era, but instead of wallowing with a saddened
heart I strengthen my resolve. We're all extremely fortunate to have had Nick Yee
share time and music with us. Now that the Jet Set has come to a close on KTUH we
can only be thankful for what he's shared with us and in his wake we wait for the
greatness that the next generation of his successors with bring to enrich both the
community and the world at large.
Aloha nui loa and many mahalos, Mr. Nick!
Viva KTUH!!!

Phineas Gage - Insect Stars




Insect Stars

Pull you in
You're drowning again
In a chair across the room
I can see
When you sink it chokes me
I hope you're better soon
It's three o'clock
It's getting dark
It's two o'clock
It's fine...

And I can't understand
Mistakes made by the man
I'm sure that they'll defend
The reasons you pretend
And I will not complain
It's too hard to explain
The feeling, what I say
It's just a waste of time
And I can't remember
How I made amends
And I can't remember
How I made amends

Insect eyes
I can't recognize
The red and blue and white
When no one cares
When nobody stares
Insect eyes
I can't recognize
The red, the blue, the white

It's four o'clock
It's almost dark
It's three o'clock
It's night...

And I can't understand
Mistakes made by the man
I'm sure that they'll defend
The reasons you pretend
And I will not complain
It's too hard to explain
The feeling, what I say
It's just a waste of time
And I can't remember
How I made amends
And I can't remember
How I made amends

It's five o'clock
It's almost dark
It's four o'clock
The music stopped
It's three o'clock
I'm getting lost
It's two o'clock
And now we're gone

And I can't understand
Mistakes made by the man
I'm sure that they'll defend
The reasons you pretend
And I will not complain
It's too hard to explain
The feeling, what I say
It's just a waste of time
And I can't remember
How I made amends
And I can't remember

How I made amends

I'm gonna burn the silo when you go.
I'm gonna burn the silo when you go.
Gonna burn the silo, see the flames and then you'll know-
Gonna burn the silo when you go;
When you go...

I'm gonna shoot the livestock when you go.
I'm gonna shoot the livestock when you go.
Gonna shoot the livestock, I'll put an end to the talk;
I'm gonna shoot the livestock when you go.
When you go...

Cause I'm half way drown in this soggy little town,
And I can see the silo all arise.
Cause I'm half way drown in this soggy little town,
And I can see the silo touch the sky.

I'm gonna burn the silo when you go.
I'm gonna burn the silo when you go.
Gonna burn the silo, see the flames and maybe know-
Gonna burn the silo when you go;
When you go...
When you go...

The Weight – Dragged Back In





The Weight – Dragged Back In

Well, the city’s got limits, girl, and so do I.
I’m at my breaking point, in uneven smiles.
But if you’ll be my lamplighter,
I’ll dream of sleep,
And crowd back to the gutter
before the light can hit the streets.
You were gone before you ever even touched the ground;
I were born to indecision, turned on a dime.
I was ____* unsteady course, and stumbler falling forward
toward a great divorce.
You drink vodkas and cranberry whiskeys and Coke.
You need me to light your cigarettes,
And laugh at all your jokes.
You made a fool outta me before I ever got a chance.
Now, I’ll make a liar outta you if you don’t save me this dance.

Cause I always wanted your affections,
now I don’t know what to do with them
You say you crave my attention,
but I’m tired and I won’t be dragged back in.

So if you get a phone call while I’m away from home,
don’t answer for me darlin’, I get desperate while I’m alone.
In the lands down the road we’ll draw the straightest path
So my aimless feet won’t wander, so my course is always set.
When my faith turned away from you and the tires want in tread
Press a needle ore and north*, pulls me back again instead.
If you’ll be my destiny well I’m cheatin’ fate this time.
An’ I pull my body forward and leave my heart behind.

Cause I always wanted your affections,
now I don’t know what to do with them.
You say you crave my attention,
but I’m tired and I won’t be dragged back in.

Dragged back in
Dragged back in
Well, I’m tired and I won’t be dragged back in.

Dragged back in
Well, I’m tired and I won’t be dragged back in.


* At those two points in the song I could not decipher the lyrics.

City Looks for plan for Haiku Stairs



City Looks for plan for Haiku Stairs
by Gordon Y.K. Pang
Honolulu Star-Advertiser
Tuesday, March 26, 2013

Members of the City Council and Mayor Kirk Caldwell’s administration promised to try again to come up with a plan for the Haiku Stairs that would appease both hikers and Kaneohe residents who say they’re tired of unruly visitors and other trespassers.

Members of the Friends of Haiku Stairs want the city to reopen access roads to the hiking trail and to institute a management program there similar to Haunauma Bay Nature Preserve.

But at a Council Parks Committee meeting Monday, the area’s state lawmakers, fire and police representatives and a resident said it’s time that access to Haiku Stairs, also known as the Stairway to Heaven, be cut off permanently by removing the bottom rungs of the trail.

At the end of the meeting, Council Parks Chairman Joey Manahan said he will establish a working group or task force “to look at possible solutions.”

Windward Councilman Ikaika Anderson said he views Caldwell’s position critical to a possible opening.

Caldwell issued a release later Monday saying the illegal trespassing problems raised by Haiku residents must be resolved before he will support reopening the stairs.

“The Haiku Stairs is a unique attraction and I would like to find a solution or partnership that might allow the city to reopen them, but that will only happen if the access issue is resolved to the neighborhood’s satisfaction.”

The stairs were part of the Coat Guard’s Omega transmission station at the bottom of Haiku Valley and were built by the Navy in 1943 to reach the cable facilities above the valley. Wooden stairs were replaced with galvanized metal ones in 1955.

The city, under the leadership of former Mayor Jeremy Harris and then Windward Councilman Steve Holmes, took ownership of the stairs from the military in the early 2000s and the city spent $875,000 to repair them. But jurisdictional entanglements ensued as opposition from residents mounted and the attraction never reopened.

State Re. Ken Ito, (D, Kaneohe-Maunawili-Kailua) said he does not believe the trail should be reopened, at least not until neighborhood concerns are addressed.

Ito said the state Department of Transportation and the Department of Hawaiian Home Lands, which both own property the public will need to access the city-owned stairs, have indicated a reluctance to make their sections public.

Ito said he has tried for more than 10 years to resolve the issues involving the stairs.

Caroline Sluyter, DOT spokeswoman, told the Star-Advertiser that a DOT-maintained road used during construction of the H-3 freeway is not paved and was never intended to be a public road.

Fire Department Capt. Dale Mosher said fire officials hold that not only should the trail be closed, but that the city should remove the stairs on the lower portion to shut them down permanently.

“We think it’s risky to the public,” Mosher said. “We think it’s risky to ourselves and we would like it shut down.”

A string of Friends of Haiku Stairs supporters and hiking enthusiasts urged Council members to at least listen to arguments for reopening the trail, which they view as a valuable environmental and cultural resource.

Many said they believe a majority of the concerns raised by the residents stem from the tendency of hikers to try to reach the stairs in the middle of the night to avoid being stopped by security guards stationed at the base of the trail during the day. Vernon Ansell, Friends of Haiku Stairs president, said there are four access roads that can be reopened that would allow hikers to reach the stairs during daylight hours without disturbing neighbors.

Like other supporters, Ansell said the trail is a unique treasure that should be valued and preserved. His group holds tree to four work days a year along the trail, clearing it and removing alien species. “It’s just amazing what’s up there and can be made available to the general public,” he said.

Supporters of reopening the trail also dismissed conchs that it is unsafe, noting that the death of a man on the stairs two years ago was the result of a heart attack.
