Take in music of the sea

Advertiser Staff

Leave it to the Waikiki Aquarium to come up with a "Sounds of the Ocean" concert. Tonight's gig is part of the outdoor concert series "Ke Kani O Ke Ka." It starts at 7 and showcases the Iona Contemporary Dance Theatre, directed and choreographed by Cheryl Flaharty.

Local restaurants will have food booths on the lawn, with scrip for sale at the entrance. Doors open at 6 p.m. Tickets are $18 general and $10 ages 7-12. Those 6 and younger get in free.

Call 923-9741.


More insults than you can shake a cigar at

Triumph the Insult Comic Dog is back — with bite. On the just-out "Late Night with Conan O'Brien" DVD, the canine with attitude, who visited the "American Idol" Honolulu auditions as well as NBC affiliate KHNL News 8, is included in the retrospective compilation.

If you recall, Triumph even did the News 8 weather — and proceeded to insult news anchor Howard Dashefsky's hair — for prime-time laughs.


FINAL WORD

Sigourney Weaver | star of the original "Alien," talking to the Boston Herald about last week's release of "Alien vs. Predator:"

"I probably won't see it. Not out of spite or anything, just because I don't really enjoy that kind of movie. I don't even like it when there are people in it. You know, I just can see so clearly that it's not real, that I just pull right out of the movie."
