I heard you play 3 times in 2007 starting with Maui County Fair venue; I am looking forward to more in Sept & Oct 08. Did you ever meet Courtney Branch? He is an amature musician, lives in the same complex you do. Great website! I look forward to adding your Hawaiian album to the two I already have. K

Thank you for the update on your music and plan to be back in Maui October 2008 for an Island Bike/camp ride. As I did San Diego to San Francisco in four leasure weeks. Then San Francisco to Las Vegas in six weeks on a Cannondale 24 speed bicycle. I wish to do all five Hawaiian Islands one each summer after I do Maui. My dad now in heaven was with the 36th Infantry Division in WWII and fought next to and with the famed 442nd of Hawaii so I feel like I have an extended family in Hawaii now that mom and dad are gone.
See ya under the Banyan Tree October 2008

Truly awesome, Michael. I was tickled to see someone I had just met featured on the cover and in a wonderful article. I hope I get to hear you play many more times. Welcome to Maui, Bruddah.

Hi, Michael Kollwitz,

What a nice-looking blog, and this is really some great Chapman Stick music. As you know, I’m partial to the Megatar, but I still appreciate a job very well done on The Stick.

Michael,
We sure do miss you here in Sacramento. I bet Maui is so happy to have found some great friends & a new wave of music. Can’t wait until the next CD comes out to buy it for Jimmy. Best of luck to you & Christine. Mahalo

Hi Michael and Christine, I hope you are enjoying your new location. I have a 2nd cousin attending the Univ. of Hawaii. Her boyfriend is from Maui. She hopes to relocate to Maui. Send pictures when you get a chance! We went to Art Fiesta last weekend and of course, you were not there.

Michael & Christine, What an absolute privilege & pleasure to sit beneath the Banyan tree in Lahaina, and talk to you both while listening to your music. (I’m the “Samba Pa Ti” guy, and yeah I do have a soft spot for that song.) The music added a gracious touch to the sun and mood of the day, as well as providing a wonderful oveture to our 20th wedding anniversary. We hope to see you both the next time we are in Maui, or you find yourself in the Tacoma/ Seattle area.

Take care, and Peace & Harmony to you both. Chuck & Eileen
