Bear Hands
Crime Pays- Bear Hands
Bear Hands is a post-punk/experimental/indie rock act hailing from Brooklyn, New York. Forming in 2006, the band consists of Dylan Rau, Val Loper, TJ Orscher and our good friend Ted Feldman from Wesleyan.
LUA has fond memories from Bear Hands shows throughout our college experience. They’ve played some of the best shows we have ever seen. We have some SXSW war stories as well (remember 2009 and that hotel room Ted?). This past year at SXSW, Bear Hands burned down the Driskill Hotel in downtown Austin at the Cantora Records Showcase. In November of 2010, Bear Hands released their first full length LP titled Burning Bush Supper Club. Go check it out, it’s an awesome album.
Umi Kai and His Ancient Hawaiian Weapons
There’s a small but skilled group of local artisans who practice crafts that were important to ancient Hawaiians. How can they make a living when foreign imitations of their work sell for much less?
This is hella important. please read!
Ronna Bolante
UMI KAI WAS 17 YEARS OLD WHEN HE carved his first Hawaiian weapon. He used some wood from a mango tree in his backyard and, with no more experience than woodshop class at Kaimuki High School, fashioned it into a leiomano, a slender wood paddle about the size his hand, lashed with tiger shark teeth he got from a fisherman. Kai shaped the weapon from memory, after a similar piece he’d seen as a child at his uncle’s house.
That was 30 years ago. Since then, Kai has studied the Bishop Museum’s collection of Hawaiian weapons, read whatever he could on ancient implements, consulted others who were knowledgeable about woodworking and became one of the most esteemed weapons makers in the Islands.

I’ve always loved this song. A great Saturday morning get-to-work song, especially in this rain. Thanks Fred.
