The Point After.....


Now that's a name if there ever was one. If memory serves me right there were a bunch of Point After Night Clubs in the 70s. Honolulu for sure and at least one in Dallas I believe.
Lee Afuvai (center next to Kamasami Kong on the left and Frank B. Shaner on the right)ran the Point After in Honolulu. Lee was the man and gave many a band a start in Waikiki. When we started playing the off-night circuits Aura was the house band at the Point. When Aura left Power Point took over the full-time band duties. Transition then took Power Point's place as the six night band. All along our band played the Monday night off-night. We felt so honored by Mr. Afuvai as he asked our band a few times to become the Point After's six night house band. Lots of cool people there. Management, staff, customers. All in all a real cool good experience. Thanks Mr. Afuvai, you're one cool dude!!

Kudos for the excellent blog! Can't believe that I tripped upon this site in that I used to play with the group "Transition" Of course, we too were managed by Mark Nishimoto. After "The Point" I believe we ended up at "Da Sting" and then "Infinity" Great, great times. We did a one year tour which started in Seattle at Pier 70 and took us from the west coast to the midwest, back west through L.A. (Redondo Beach "Red Onion" circuit) and then back north towards Seattle ending up at Pier 70.

Lee Afuvai is a rapist, not a "cool dude". I know because I was one of his victims.

When I initially commented I clicked the "Notify me when new comments are added" checkbox and now each time a comment
is added I get several emails with the same comment. Is there any way you can remove people from that service?

Thanks a lot!

I'm impressed, I must say. Seldom do I come across a blog that's equally educative and amusing, and let me tell you, you've hit the nail on the head. The problem is something that too few men and women are speaking intelligently about. I am very happy that I stumbled across this during my hunt for something relating to this.

Ultimately, this ruined the entire story for me and it almost made me turn people away from the film.
Tron's original soundtrack by Wendy Carlos never left an impression with me either even being a film score and electronica fanatic. This song is from one of the i - Pod commercials called "Mashup.
