10th Anniversary Show

September 25, 2026

The Posts Index Page reveals that HSJ became 10 years old this summer, and we celebrated this momentous occasion by playing Honolulu Dead Night.

To add some novelty to the evening, we distributed “Dead Head New Friend” game cards to everyone in the audience:

In retrospect, the font should have been way bigger, but people told us they enjoyed the game. We gave out HSJ stickers to everyone who completed their game card during half time.

Here is a post-show photo of some of the folks who attended:

One of our friends texted me this:

Thanks again for such an epic night of music last night! I’m so proud of you guys and so stoked to hear you all playing so well together and lighting up the crowd like you do!!!

Another friend commented to Joanne when we started the William Tell Bridge:

“I’ve never heard any band play this part of St. Stephen before.”
