KINGS OF SPADE LIVE @ MULLIGAN'S (MAUI)
w/RABBITT & THE PROPERS
KINGS OF SPADE (from Honolulu) dish out a raw and grungey blend of urban funk, dirty blues, deep soul and rock. Proud of not being boxed in a specific genre, the KINGS can remind you of a classic fist-pumping rock band in one number, take you for a dance-pop ride in the next, and then charge straight into an old smokey blues riff. Their energetic live show has landed them gigs at LA's House of Blues, The Avalon, and The Viper Room, as well opening for world-famous acts like Bon Jovi, Daughtry, and most recently, the Deftones. The very last time they played in Maui was to a sold-out crowd at Charley's.

EVERY SATURDAY IN SEPTEMBER, CHECK OUT KIMO NEVIUS AT PAIA'S MOANA BAKERY & CAFE (7-9PM)
For four Saturdays in September, singer-songwriter Kimo Nevius will be showcasing his songs—new and old—in a series of shows at Moana Bakery and Café in Pa‘ia.
Kimo writes and plays a unique brand of folk music steeped in Hawaiian history and culture. Many of his songs deal with Maui in the nineteenth century—a time of whaling ships, sugar plantation, and cowboys, and his songs narrate stories of everyone from commoners to kings. When he’s not writing about Maui, his work still has a tendency to focus on the past—from the warm glow of nostalgia to remembering the feeling of first love. Each show in September will be on a different theme: one night will be love songs, one night will focus on Hawaii, one will be about remembering the past—and one will be full of surprises.
Kimo performs 7–9pm each Saturday in September (that's Sept. 3, 10, 17, and 24) at Moana Bakery and Café, located at 71 Baldwin Ave. in Pa‘ia (just mauka of the public parking lot).

IT'S AS EASY AS (PIZZA) PIE!
(Tuesday) August 30, 5-10pm, Flatbread Company, 89 Hana Hwy., Paia (808-579-8989)
It's good to 'give back.' But it's fun to give back by doing something you'd be doing anyway. Like eating. Everybody's gotta eat! So when you're choosing where and what to grind next week, consider Flatbread Company on Tuesday night (August 30). Why? Between the hours of 5-10pm, they're donating $3.50 for every large flatbread sold (or $1.75 for every small) to Na Mele O Maui, in support of the upcoming 39th annual Nā Mele O Maui Song & Art Contest.
]]>Roller Derby Exhibition
5 pm Central Maui Boys and Girls Club basketball courts, Kanaloa Ave.
FREE - FAMILY FRIENDLY - NO SMOKING/DRINKING
Bring a picnic, bring the kids, and come have some fun! Have you ever seen roller derby played? It's fast and furious, lots of contact and some confusion - and the Maui Rollergirls want to give you the inside scoop so you know what the heck you're cheering for. The Maui Rollergirls are scrimmaging tonight at 5pm on the basketball courts behind the Central Maui Boys and Girls Club - and the public is invited to this free, family friendly event. Instead of the usual 1 hour bout, they will have shorter exhibition jams - taking the time to stop and take questions, explain the plays and the strategy behind them, and demonstrate why Maui's roller derby team remains undefeated. Meet the team, buy a shirt with the infamous "slippah skate" logo, talk to us about sponsorship opportunities for this new non-profit, and support a group of women that are traveling around the country to compete, and also bringing tremendous derby talent here to Maui. Roller Derby is the fastest growing sport in the world. It is experiencing what some might call a renaissance, but we call it a revolution. Please feel free to forward this message :)

Saturday (June 4), Haui's Life's A Beach, Kihei, free
Oahu's own HiRiZ--featuring Maui-raised lead singer and guitarist Ka'imi Hanano'eau---bring their unique rock steady style to the South side, this Saturday (June 4). Best of all, there's no cover for the concert. Yep. The best things in life are free! [1913 S. Kihei Rd., Kihei; 808-891-8010; http://www.mauibars.com / http://www.hirizmusic.com]Hiriz started at Easy Music Center where Ka’imi and Steve worked. They talked about starting a band not knowing what would become of it. Steve knew a drummer and a rhythm guitarist. The first couple of practices were rough but it soon started to take shape. By that time, they did not have a band name. Practices took place in Papakolea over looking downtown Honolulu. Shannon came up with the name “high rise” but the others took it to the next level. Thus, HiRiZ was born.
HiRiZ has built up their original and cover material to with stand a five hour gig. With the island reggae and rock fusion technicality, HiRiZ has a distinct sound. Not limiting their horizons, they also like to mesh the reggae vibe with genres such as Bossa Nova, Jazz, Alternative, R&B, and Funk.
ABOUT MAUI BOY KA'IMI HANANO'EAU (read more at http://www.hirizmusic.com):
Born on O’ahu and raised in Maui, he started playing Ukulele at the age of 5. By freshman year at H.P. Baldwin High School he was already affiliated with a Halau/Production company at the age of 14 . It was his first job and only job in his high school years. How fortunate of him to have a regular income as a professional musician until graduation. When he graduated, he could play ukulele, bass, guitar, piano and Tahitian percussion. He then moved back to O’ahu to attended BYUH in La’ie where he graduated with a B.A. in Music (Major) and Hawaiian Studies (Minor) furthering his knowledge with music theory and live sound engineering. He now works as a Sales Associate at Easy Music Center Pearl City where he specializes in ukulele and live sound equipment. Ka`imi has experience with all aspects of music ranging from behind the stage as a sound technician to on stage as the main act. His current instrument of choice is the guitar. He alone has enough material for a three-hour solo gig but jamming with HiRiZ is his new passion.

Tonight and tomorrow night Lahaina will be transformed for a group of 70 folks or so, who will climb into a time capsule with the folks at Lahaina Restoration Foundation and travel back to the old days when this West Maui spot was the capital of Hawaii. Okay, travelling will be done by your imagination, while your tastebuds work in real time, but isn’t that a safer way to travel any how? This weekend only we will be treated to the beautiful combination of art appreciation, engaging historic theatre and gorgeous food.
With paint, murals, lanterns, tables and linens, Theo Morrison and her team are busily readying the Old Lahaina Prison to serve as the site of the main course of the Lahaina Restoration Foundation’s Third Annual Progressive Dinner Party.
During a progressive dinner party, you travel (or “progress”) from one site to the next for each course of your meal. The Lahaina Restoration Foundation has added a historical twist to the concept – you travel from one historical site to another by trolley and shuttle, with historical narration along the way. “The evening starts with appetizers at the Wo Hing Museum on Front Street, moves to the Old Lahaina Prison for salad and the main course and ends up at the Pioneer Inn for dessert,” explains Morrison. “You also enjoy culinary creations by some of Maui’s most noted chefs, including chefs Mark Ellman, Ryan Luckey, Sheldon Simeon and Jay Kulukulalani.”
“You could call this a fusion of a ‘foodie’ and ‘historical’ event,” says Morrison, noting that the chefs will be using ingredients such as Snake River Farms Gold Label Kobe Tenderloin, Island Fresh Ahi, and Molokai Prawns, to create tantalizing dishes especially for the occasion. “The settings are as memorable as any you’ll ever find, and you’ll learn a bit about Lahaina’s rich history throughout the evening.”
The fascinating backdrop of Chinese history in Lahaina cloaks the first course – pupus prepared by Chef Sheldon Simeon at the Wo Hing Temple. But the real action is going to be found aptly placed in the old prison built in the 1850s by order of the legislature and King Kamehameha III of Hawaii. Inside the 28 inch thick coral block prison walls you will be witnessing a new dimension of Lahaina, theatrical performances by Great Scott Productions, inspired by an old song that homesick sailors sung called “Saturday Night in Lahaina.”
Longtime Lahaina residents will enjoy the portrayal of the late Captain Kenny, a beloved and colorful local resident who transported his artwork in a shopping cart and sold it along Lahaina’s streets. Actor Chuck Dicker will be playing the part. Other actors in the show include Robenn Robb, Allen Cohen, Ute Finch, Michelle Nakagawa, Derek Nakagawa, Garrett Probst and Bailey Keller.
You can purchase tickets for either Friday or Saturday evening. The seats are limited to just 68 diners (34 couples) per evening and are $135, all inclusive. Each evening will begin at 5:45 pm at Wo Hing Museum.
“We are also offering special VIP tables for 8 for $1,000,” saysMorrison. “With this package, you get private reserved table with a personal server at each site, complimentary parking for four cars at the Baldwin Home parking lot at the corner of Dickenson Street and Front Street, and one copy of the book, Exploring Historic Lahaina, for each VIP.”
The evening caps at the historic Pioneer Inn for dessert and dancing, with music provided by Haiku Hillbillies on Friday night and Rock ‘n’ Rogues on Saturday night.
The dinner party is a benefit for Lahaina Restoration Foundation, a nonprofit organization that works to faithfully restore, maintain and interpret the physical, historical and cultural legacy of Lahaina, Maui, first capital of the Kingdom of Hawaii. A portion of the Progressive Dinner Party ticket price ($60 per individual ticket or $400 for a VIP table) is U.S. tax deductible to the extent allowed by law.
Dinner reservations are available to adults over age 21 only, and can be obtained by calling Lahaina Restoration Foundation at 808-661-3262 or visiting http://www.lahainarestoration.org.
