free stuff in hawaii, yes there are.  free concerts, it does happen!  i won tix thru the local radio station to attend a performance by Jim Brickman, America’s Romantic Piano Sensation!  it was a really nice private performance, and oh so romantic.   

later that evening, i went an Incubus concert for free!  i got a group together to go sit outside of the concert area to eat, drink, listen to the music, and watch the sunset and stars.  later on the night,  my friend noticed the “gate” blocking the concert area was down, and we made our way down towards the stage.  it was pretty cool to see Incubus live and up-close.  i didn’t know too many of their songs but have been hearing it frequently on the radio station.  i was rocking the beat.  i had one of the most embarrassing moments that night, only those around witnessed it, and they laughed their butts off :O.

the next evening, Willie K was rocking the ukelele in Waikiki!  it’s something about the sound of the strings that makes my heart beat and the melody of the hymns that soothes the soul.

so how does one have Unlimited Fun on Limited Funds living in Hawaii, as it’s assumed to be an expensive place to live?  like every place, there are free activities, you just got to be in-the-know, or events_seeker like me .

it’s a start of a new week, my health is finally getting better, and what a great way to get together with friends and make new ones than to see a free classic movie “Casablanca” outdoors, under the stars, and in the swanky beautiful hotel The Edition.  i really enjoy their free no cover movie nights, free valet parking, beautiful view, location, and cool hip vibe.  if you do end up buying dinner or drink, it ranges $7-$14.  you don’t have to spend a fortune on a date or just hanging out with friends.  i hope they keep doing this and please bring out more free popcorn and candy!

i’m looking forward to Sunset On The Beach at Queens Beach in Waikiki coming up Sept 10th!  they’re premiering Hawaii 5-0 Season 2.  the stars will really be out – Alex O’Loughlin (O-la-la), Scott Caan, Daniel Dae Kim, Grace Park, and many other casts!  lucky i live hawaii and “Here’s looking at you kid” \m/
