The Rock out and about town

Dwayne Johnson certainly isn't getting rock fever during his current visit home.
The Rock, star of the recent box office hit "The Rundown," stopped by Kamaka Hawai'i in Kaka'ako to buy a baritone 'ukulele Monday. Does this mean he'll be wrestling with 'ukulele-strumming lessons in the months ahead?
Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson has been spotted in Honolulu this week.
Customers didn't recognize him, because of a shaved head and low profile, but staffers did.
"Very gracious and low key" was the way The Rock was described. Kamaka 'ohana members Chris Kamaka and his cousin, Fred Kamaka Jr., gave the wrestler-turned-actor a tour of their 'uke factory.
And The Rock also sneaked into the Comedy Shack (at Dave & Buster's) where Augie T. and Lanai gave their final shows before moving on to gigs this Friday at Hilo's Naniloa Hotel. Augie said their fans knew The Rock was there — and wrestled for seats close to him.
