Melting Hot
Saturday & Sunday (March 13 & 14), 7:30pm, McCoy Theater, MACC, $35
Lima Wela (or “Las Manos Calientes,” en Espanol, or for those who like to stick to good old English, “Hot Hands”) is the multi-cultural acoustic guitar trio composed of Hawaiian Willie K. , Spaniard Joe Cano , and Israeli Avi Ronen . True to their name, this musical group has the hottest, quickest hands in the Pacific. Their nimble fingers jump from one string to the next with such speed that it’s almost disturbing, and their performances make clear why the Hawaiians named the ukulele after the “uku,” ...More

E-Racing Domestic Violence
Saturday (March 13), 6am registration, 8am race at Green Banana Cafe, 137 Hana Hwy., Paia

But maybe we should be. Some tribal-esque entertainment might be just the trick to mix up the usual Maui nightlife, and nothing bespeaks tribal like the tiki. The South Shore Tiki Lounge is throwing together a tiki-inspired art show and dance party (launching a Kihei Youth Center-benefiting art exhibit, running ...More

Fishbond
Saturday (March 13), 8am-11am, Ko‘ie‘ie fishpond
We here at MauiTime were just discussing the likelihood that our office carpet has never, ever been vacuumed. So while I apologize for always asking people to clean up (I dread being told to organize/wash/fix/scrub/vacuum anything), I’m eco-Picking again. Why? We humans make a big fat mess, and the state of our beaches, parks and roads have more far-reaching effects than the staples in the shag. Let’s at least lend a hand to all the little fish, plants and other creatures that we like to go snorkeling with—and chow down on. Prime ...More
