That new wood varnish smell hasn't worn off yet, but The Shack Waikiki is already hopping, Metromix reports. According to the Web site's scout, local bands play here every weeknight to a mixed crowd of locals and tourists. The food is affordable, and the portions are generous. The weekday happy hour specials include a variety of deals on beer and food. It's a great place to come for dinner before hitting other clubs. Find out more about this new Waikiki hotspot — and lots more — at www.honolulu.metromix.com.

Get advance tickets, $10 to $15, by calling 847-8290. Tickets at the gate, if available, will be $20.



FINAL WORD

"I like to talk about football and things that aren't heavy. Or not talk at all. That's what I like about guys. You can just watch TV."

Carrie Underwood , in Allure
