What people wrote about nights in Honolulu
A guest for Peter Hook · Fri, 28 Nov 2014
It was a fun night recalling songs I grew up in the 80s. Hooky certainly brought the energy (not the same with his kind of aloof son, I figure he's a bit shy to overstep his authority). The acoustics at The Republik for the music they play was horrible. The mixing was pretty bad as I felt like just loud sometimes indiscernible noise was blasted at me. I could barely hear Hooky's voice, and maybe it was by design. Hooky is a legend, but I wish he would let someone else sing lead vocals. Also, I'm not sure if it was the acoustics contributing to it, but the mix of synthesizer and the rest of the band was kind of pitchy. I would imagine the synthesizer is set to be pretty accurately in tune, so it could have been the rest of the band? I don't know. It made the otherwise fun concert a little less enjoyable. Overall though I am glad I went!

Beautiful night under the stars. Music was awesome. One of the best shows I've ever seen.
A guest for Bob Dylan · Sat, 01 Aug 1964
I had finished my Junior year in high school in 1964 when I attended the Aug 1, 1964 Bob Dylan concert at the Waikiki Shell. My girlfriend and I had the cheapest tickets, cs. $2.75 each, and we're sitting in the grass a light rain started falling and there weren't many people at the concert, so Bob Dylan told us all to come down closer. Thus, we got to sit in the spprox 2nd row right in front of Dylan he had on a buckskin jacket and his harmonica on a stand around his neck. It was a wonderful concert which I have never forgotten. I bought all his albums from those years and many years later bought the CDs. My son texted me from the East Coast early this morning to tell me the great news about Dylan receiving the 2016 Nobel Prize in Literature. I was "stoked" as we would have said in 1964 Honolulu. It is richly deserved! Way to go, Bobby!
