Fri, Nov. 27 - Soul Clap at Thirtyninehotel

Fri, 27 Nov 2009 00:00:00 -0700

What is Soul Clap? According to party founder and Nocturnal Sound Krew (NSK) member Steven 'ESKAE' Kanemoto, Soul Clap is simply about 'making people dance to music they never realized they liked.'

What started as a random, Friday-night party has exploded into Honolulu's go-to event for ground breaking dance music and the best in classic party music. Over the last 2 years ESKAE and Soul Clap DJs – and fellow NSK members – Jami and Compose have redefined what is considered club music and how it's played. 'Our philosophy is that a DJ should be able to play any music genre without losing a single person on the dance floor,' says Jami referring to Soul Clap's mix of Hip Hop, Soul, Electro, 80's and party classics.

Soul Clap has received numerous praises and recognition from the Honolulu Star Bulletin, Midweek, SMART magazine, Honolulu Nightlife Diaries and other media outlets. The Honolulu Advertiser has referred to Soul Clap as, 'the club equivalent of an eclectic, well-stocked iPod on party shuffle mode for five hours,'

Soul Clap happens every last Friday of the month at Thirtyninehotel in the heart of downtown Honolulu.

Sat, Nov. 28 - Mae & Owl City at Pipeline Cafe

Sat, 28 Nov 2009 00:00:00 -0700

Boasting a sound that straddles the border of alternative rock and emo-pop, Mae (an acronym for Multisensory Aesthetic Experience) was formed in early 2001 by guitarist Matt Beck, drummer Jacob Marshall, bassist Mark Padgett, keyboardist Rob Sweitzer, and vocalist Dave Elkins. The band initially started out as a project between Elkins and Marshall in Norfolk, Virginia. Recording sessions were booked at Padgett's home studio, and the duo quickly grew into a quintet as the co-founders rubbed shoulders with other local musicians. Nearly eight months later, Mae had cemented its sound and landed local shows with the likes of the Movielife, River City High, and the Exit. In the process, the group also recorded songs for a debut album, Destination: Beautiful, which was released in early 2003 by Tooth & Nail.

Along with music and dancing provided by Nocturna, Modboy and Shadowfaxxx, this is the prom you never had. For this evening of promenade at the Loft, adorned in black and crimson colors, dark corsages and boutonnières, the prom committee, which consist of the oracles and others beyond the grave, have selected these couples and only one couple will take the title as Bat King and Bat Queen.

The chosen couples are:

Tymm and Stacy
Kanoa and Lisa
Kawika and Lee-Ann

At the event we will be selecting one couple who will be taking the title of Bat King and Bat Queen and this will be determined by votes, secret ballots, from the guests and spectators who come to the Goth Prom. They must be present at the event, living and breathing to vote.

Criteria and selections should be based on the darkest, most appealing couple in appearance, attire and aura in the darkest sense of the word. Oracles and the dead will not be allowed to vote during the event.

You must be present during the event to participate on choosing the ROYAL BAT COURT . Please come in dark prom attire/or costume… to our love send a dozen white lilies or red roses. Please contact me to reserve a table for bottle service at feast@hawaii.rr.com

Like the traditional high school prom, the Goth Bat King and Queen will take
the first dance, dancing to BREATHE, by the Cure, (B-Side of Catch) and other theme songs, provided by Nocturna, as channeled by the Oracles. More to be announced. Please stay tuned.

Come one, come two or come with a clan ! Break the tradition ! You need not come with a date unless you choose to…and you may come with the same gender if that happens to be your preference. Come dressed as a sophisticated Romantic Goth, Deathrocker, Rivet-head, Cybergoth, Ethergoth, Steam Punk, Punk, Candygoth, Goth-a- billy or the Vampyre goth, etc..as Voltaire mentioned in his book, What is Goth.

Come and dance away from the traditional prom and dance to the music you love, away from the mainstream,… the prom you never had !

Hope to see you there ! Thank you for your continued support !

Fri, Jan. 15 - KSSK Welcomes Bill Cosby back to Honolulu at Neal S. Blaisdell Concert Hall

Fri, 15 Jan 2010 00:00:00 -0700

KSSK WELCOMES BILL COSBY BACK TO HONOLULU!

Bill Cosby is, by any standards, one of the most influential stars in America today. Whether it be through concert appearances or recordings, television or films, commercials or education, Bill Cosby has the ability to touch people's lives. His humor often centers on the basic cornerstones of our existence, seeking to provide an insight into our roles as parents, children, family members, and men and women. Without resorting to gimmickry or lowbrow humor, Bill Cosby's comedy has a point of reference and respect for the trappings and traditions of the great American humorists such as Mark Twain, Buster Keaton and Jonathan Winters.

The 1984-92 run of The Cosby Show and his books Fatherhood and Time Flies established new benchmarks on how success is measured. His status at the top of the TVQ survey year after year continues to confirm his appeal as one of the most popular personalities in America. His lifelong contributions to American culture were recognized with a Kennedy Center Honor in 1998 and the Presidential Medal of Freedom in July 2002, America's highest civilian honor.

The Cosby Show - The 25th Anniversary Commemorative Edition, released by First Look Studios and Carsey-Werner, is available in stores or online atwww.billcosby.com. The DVD box set of the NBC television hit series is the complete collection of one of the most popular programs in the history of television.
