Hi Everyone,
We have a new guest that Neil sat down with during his visit to Hilo, here is part 1 of the two part series.
Enjoy!

On my recent visit to Hilo I dropped into Coconut Willy’s for breakfast with Rebecca and spent some time with our friend, the proprietor Kaliko Beamer-Trapp. You may have seen the TG News where Kaliko had a cameo or Rebecca’s story and dance on Papa’s Guitar.
As we were eating a guitar player dropped in and started playing some very unusual sounding stuff in an open tuning I couldn’t immediately identify, along with a couple partial capos. We didn’t have time to talk at first as the girls had to get to class. I came back an hour later to shoot the News and he was still there. I figured I’d take the opportunity to chat on camera and we had a great time.
The first part of our conversation included John Self playing a few tunes and telling me about how he landed in Hilo, recently moved from Portland, and general stories about music and life.

This looks very interesting, but I can't seem to watch it....
In the last month or so, I am having all kinds of errors trying to watch certain YT clips. THey show a 10:30 length (for example) and then after about 10-15 seconds they just stop. If I start them again, the length shows at 10-15 seconds, but then continues to play after it has reached the time shown. It will play for a while, then stop again... I have tried this in Firefox, and in IE. Both give similar results. Is anybody else having any problems? MOST clips I watch seem O.K., but a few are just acting really weird.... Maybe they are right-handed videos.... :laugh:

I had a similar problem that seems to have cleared up. It may have been YouTubes processing time. Try it again when you can.This looks very interesting, but I can't seem to watch it....

Very cool tuning whatever you call it and John's playing was really great and he had very interesting stories too.
I'll be in Hawaii tomorrow :laugh: Actually I am leaving for vacation tomorrow to Maui and Kauai.
Thanks John and Neil for sharing this video.
