Lady Ipo blesses the KKCR (Hanalei, Kaua’i) fund drive as it opens at 10am on Monday.As luck would have it, my Hawaiian vacation coincides with KKCR‘s fund drive, and I’ll be assisting on Saturday evening (May 19) from 6-10pm Hawaiian time. That’s 9 pm to 1 am Pacific, Midnight to 4 am Eastern.
KKCR streams online, and I’d love it if some of my mainland pals would make a contribution to this wonderful community radio station. The GD Hour has been a Saturday evening feature here since Bill Kreutzmann brought me into the KKCR ‘ohana a few years back. Our show is part of “Grateful Dead and Friends,” Saturdays 6-8pm, hosted by Jackie Row and Dove on alternate weeks. And Dove does a “Fresh Jams” show 8-10pm with Ratdog as a frequent feature.
I listen to KKCR at home in California quite often – so sweet to hear Hawaiian music and feel like I’m there for a while. And it’s nice to keep up with community issues in one of our favorite vacation spots.

Thanks for listening, as always!
May 19th is my birthday. Are there any GD legendary 5-19 shows or moments? Dicks’s Picks has a nice one from ’77.
May 19, 1974 in Portland is another classic. There’s a big piece of it posted on the DeadNet Tapers Section this week.
Happy birthday, Nick!
