OCEAN FRONT DINING Please allow us to introduce ourselves. We are ZuiHao Chinese Cuisine located on Front Street in Lahaina your soon to be, if not already, “favorite restaurant” serving amazing craveable Chinese cuisine. We offer large portions at great prices and finally we all have an outstanding option right here in West Maui! Unfortunately the Best of Maui balloting was conducted during our opening so our guests didn’t get a chance to vote for us. Our namesake “Zuihao” translates loosely to “the best” and, according to our guests, we are hitting that mark well. Come dine with us for great food, real fun, awesome ocean front dining and see the largest open wok exhibition kitchen in Hawaii! Located at Lahaina Center on Front Street with easy parking and to-go pick up for all.

Best of Maui

is our annual look at everything that makes this island great. It’s a lot of work for everyone involved. Best of Maui is in every sense the year’s premier issue.

Every year we publish a ballot and ask you to sit down and tell us what you like best about Maui. Hundreds of you responded this year, as you have in the past, and your votes are reflected in these pages.

Keep that in mind as you read through the winners. If you find yourself disagreeing with the results, ask yourself this: Did you vote? How about your friends, family or colleagues? You can’t do anything about our Edit Picks (Maui Time staff decides those) but Best of Maui needs as many of you participating as possible.

Anyway, here are the winners—‘80s style! Because it was the best decade ever! Yeah... Well, maybe it was the best decade that started with an “8.” Anyway, we’ve got your big hair, Ronald Reagan, Rubik’s Cube, PacMan icons, cans of Tab—what symbolizes and exemplifies the go-go 1980’s better than a can of Tab? Well, I guess a lot of things, but they weren’t available.

In any case, thanks for your help. We truly couldn’t have done it without you.

-Tommy Russo, publisher

Tie: Island Ink Tattoo Co. and Maui Tattoo Co.

It’s not an independent like Wailuku’s Maui Booksellers, but you almighty readers have deemed Borders the best bookstore in all the land. It does have the advantage of size and selection, as well as handy little computers that tell you exactly where you can find that one tearjerker Oprah was talking about the other day. The big store at Maui Marketplace even offers occasional book signings and a nice coffee bar/café for you to kick back with your new read. 270 Dairy Rd., Kahului, 877-6160.

BEST PLACE FOR HOME DÉCOR WHEN PRICE IS NOT AN ISSUE

Minka Maui Minka has this terrific art piece in their window called the Junk Drawer. It’s a piece I look at again and again and never tire of seeing. It’s full of found objects—the kind of things that may show up in your own junk drawer at home, but it’s the size of a big bulletin board. If you feel your junk drawer at home doesn’t have enough unique and lovely things, conversation pieces and imported art, then this little shop in Wailuku will have something for you. 1910 Vineyard St., Wailuku, 242-8705. (JR)

Any place that’ll safely put needles in your flesh is all right with me. But I do have a special place in my heart for Maui Tattoo Co. That’s where I watched my roommate put a tattoo on her ass, and I got my tongue and nipples pierced.

I really feel like you bond with another lady when you get topless in front of her and then she sticks needles into your skin. Island Ink, 100 Hana Hwy, Paia, 579-9461; Maui Tattoo, 1945 S. Kihei Rd., 874-0034.

Paradise Spice Oh sure, she’s been spotted recently at Ka’anapali Beach and The Shops at Wailea. But the best place for a sighting of Paris Hilton—although likely not in person—is in Wailuku, at Paradise Spice. They stock over 15,000 adult video titles, including the infamous One Night in Paris, as well as Leid in Hawai’i, Ball-Busting Babes, Bodacious Boobies, Juicy Juggs and Double “D” Divas, to rent or own. 1010 B Lower Main St., Wailuku, 249-2449.

Of course, I also found gorgeous gowns, lingerie, pink fuzzy suitcases, yummy perfumes, Swarovski crystals and endless fun things to indulge myself. But Sisters & Co. has the latest styles, summer dresses, amazing jewelry, jeans, tanks and comfort clothes that make me you look and feel fabulous. It’s a toss-up.

If you want a children’s book, this is the place to go. They have hundreds of books for children ranging from toddlers to pre-teens. Some toys and games, too, but mostly they sell the books. Apparently the owner, Democratic Party activist Shay Chan Hodges, thinks that getting kids to read is a good idea. Whatever. Oh, and none of the toys sold there came from anything like a Chinese sweatshop.

Road Runner If you really think hard and use your imagination, you might remember the days before the Internet. Catalog shopping was popular since there was no eBay yet; people read the classifieds every single day; doing research meant going to the library, and all banking actually took place at the bank.

Yeah… those days were terrible! How did we live like that? Nowadays, if you don’t have Internet service, you might as well consider yourself a pariah. Thank goodness for Road Runner and high-speed connections. (JR) PHOTO: PIETRO ORTIZ

BEST HARDWARE STORE Ace Hardware Ace Hardware is like a large family—but a little more corporate—that wants to help you find the materials you need to fix whatever needs fixing. Ace has also been around a long time, giving locals a factor of trust that big name, big warehouse stores have yet to earn, making Ace the first choice for hardware needs. Ace has locations all over Maui, probably making it the nearest hardware store to you. Located island-wide.

The Love Shack I recently went lube shopping— uh, for a friend. And I discovered quite an array of water-based, edible, numbing, stimulating, flavored, all-natural creams, lotions, oils and lubricants at The Love Shack. I found everything from Happy Penis Massage Cream to Kama Sutra Lubricating Love Liquid. On the night in question, I also got a quick lesson in which owner/goddess Lila Sherman showed me with graceful finesse how to dab a little Kama Sutra Cool Mint Pleasure Balm on the tip of my tongue in order to ease the discomfort of certain Latinworded practices that rhyme with Horatio.

BEST BAND Their latest album, Ekolu Music, won Reggae Album of the Year at this year’s annual Na Hoku Hanohano Awards.

That’s pretty cool because the album is a follow-up to their album, Back to the Valley, the Trilogy, which also won a Hoku Award. Not too shabby for the three Maui boys of Ekolu who’ve been crooning their contemporary Hawaiian hits tinged with reggae beats and R&B soul for only 10 years. Plus, they’re just really nice guys. Speaking of nice guys, Gomega is another crowd favorite, and though they have not won any Hoku Awards yet, they definitely win my award for Local Band I Never Get Sick of Seeing Live and for doing original rock, punk and genre-bending covers of everything from Britney Spears’ “Toxic” to Israel Kamakawiwo Ole’s “White Sandy Beach of Hawai’i.”

BEST RADIO PERSONALITY Morning Goddess Alaka’i Alaka’i the Morning Goddess has perfected the local morning radio show. She combines just the right amount of talking with music to wake you up and prepare you for the day. Cute tidbits of information and uplifting quotes, as well as genuine birthday wishes and a reading from the Hawaiian moon calendar are all included every morning, making Alaka’i’s show one to look forward to. Perhaps Alaka’i’s best quality is her accessibility—she’s not the mysterious radio DJ that no one’s seen; listening to Alaka’i in the morning is like listening to your favorite auntie. You can hear Alaka’i each morning on KPOA 93.5 FM. Runner-up: Babulu (KH)

BEST ART EXHIBITS THAT WON’T BORE YOU TO TEARS

Café Marc Aurel/Hui No’eau When you live on an island that is a work of art all by itself, it’s easy to see how so many inhabitants could be inspired artistically. But when the result is an endless barrage of typically tropical images—colorful coral reef fishes, swaying palm trees, rainbows, sandy white beaches, blah blah blah—the effect can be numbing on people who enjoy art for art’s sake.

Or Café Marc Aurel’s ongoing group shows, featuring local artists in their interpretation of themes like “The Sacred Feminine: Madonna, Whore, Daughter, Wife, Sister, Lover” or “Boys Will Be Boys: Reflections on personal and global patriarchal worlds.” Plus, both places really know how to throw a party—er, art opening.

BEST PLACE TO DANCE Hapa’s

BEST PUBLIC ART The corner of Church and Main

It’s important to have a large, open dance space to do the humpty, the jiggy, the krumping or whatever it is the kids are calling it these days. It’s also important to feature solid beats and a full bar, which each in their own way inspire you to bust a move or two. And it’s a bonus when you’re getting sweaty next to some fine asses a-shakin’.

But the best part about dancing at Hapa’s is that the dance floor is viewable from any spot at the large nightclub. That makes for mad scoping and easy access to making fun of whoever you want, whenever you want.

BEST ANNUAL EVENT THAT MAKES CANNES JEALOUS

Maui Film Festival at Wailea Every year in June, throngs of film industry types and the people who love them descend upon Wailea. This makes for interesting banter at South Maui’s bars, resorts and parties. But more importantly, it means we locals get to see a fine array of independent, artistic or just really good movies, under the stars on a golf course, or under the stars on a resort rooftop, or under the stars on the beach watching silent films as waves lapping the shore make the most exquisite soundtrack. Thank goodness for Maui residents and film festival founders, Barry and Stella Rivers, and their handy crew of cinemalovers. Check ‘em out online at www.mauifilmfestival.com. (SC)

BEST RADIO STATION The Point 101.1 Maui’s modern rock station—or should I say, station that plays “modern” rock that we can listen to while on Maui—won your votes for best radio this year. They feature top hits of alternative rock from today and yesterday, and the day before that. But they also have weekly programs, like Monkey Spankers, where Johnny A, Captain Coconut and MotoBabe delight and confound with their twisted humor and classic rock tunes. Plus, there are other weekly programs that highlight new albums in their entirety, interviews with rock stars, and other stuff like that.

Wharf Cinema Center It’s dark, a bit dank, a little chilly inside and smells vaguely of decaying fish—what better place to see a film about demonic possession, sadistic serial killers or mutant brain-eating zombies? It brings a whole new meaning to the phrase “total movie-going experience.”

A country and blues singer/songwriter with over 300 original tunes under her belt, Teri Garrison achieved great renown when her song “The Eyes” recently won the Embassy Music Songwriter’s Contest in Nashville. She’s been on Maui forever, garnering vocal comparisons to Janis Joplin and playing gigs locally whenever she’s not on the road touring.

She’s sung with and opened for Leon Russell, Leo Kottke, David Crosby, Tanya Tucker, Don Henley, Bonnie Raitt and Willie Nelson. And she’s got an album produced by and featuring Nelson, also called The Eyes—hey, it’s a lucky title.

You can catch her live on Sundays at Jack’s Terrace, 843 Waine’e St., Lahaina, from 7 p.m. to close.

Then when you order your appetizers and/or entrees and the bartender starts lining up the various oils and shoyu for you, you ask for some of that “secret bar sauce.” Then the bartender will smile and will, using a small bottle carefully stashed away beneath the bar, pour you a small cup of the most delicious sauce imaginable.

BEST CHEF Tie: Phil DeMott/Matteo Mistura I wonder if chefs DeMott and Mistura will celebrate their victory together with white truffle shavings and a rare Napa Valley wine, like the chefs on Bravo’s Top Chef. Maybe they’ll pass on the cuisine and skip right to the groupies.

Everyone loves a man who can cook, especially as well as these two. Let’s just hope they hold in their tears better than Chef’s misty boy Dave when the announcement is made.

Chef DeMott’s delectables can be found at the brand new Philly’s Blue Plate Diner at Azeka Shopping Center, 1280 S. Kihei Rd., Kihei, 891-2595. You can enjoy Chef Mistura’s masterpieces at Matteo’s Pizzeria, 100 Wailea Ike, Wailea, 874-1234.

combo of sweet and savory better than Pulehu, with their whole pinto beans smothered in a molasses and cinnamony barbeque sauce.

BEST LUAU Old Lahaina Luau Of the many luaus on Maui, the Old Lahaina Luau stands out above the rest because of their dedication to service. The moment you arrive you’re lei’d with fresh orchids, offered a Mai Tai and then you are led to your table by the very attractive staff. Once seated and acquainted with your table it’s time for food and more drinks. Typical luau staples are arranged beautifully on the buffet. The show begins after dinner; the servers are very friendly and treat everyone like a local. The compound is specially designed to make you feel as if you’ve taken a trip back in time, and the show supports that feeling. 1251 Front St., Lahaina, (800) 248-5828.

Plus, Kahale’s happy hour lasts all day long. Live music, friendly patrons, cheap drinks and food from the AutoFry. And they’ll keep that water bowl filled for Fido. Hell, you’ll be going for doggie “walks” every day! 36 Keala Pl., Kihei, 875-7711. (SC)

Chad’s been at Longhi’s in Wailea for four years. But if he looks familiar, you might also recognize him from his stints at KKO, Bada Bing, or any number of establishments over the years he’s been charming the ladies with his drink-slinging techniques. A self-proclaimed barfly, Chad also hosts Longhi’s popular weekday late-night happy hour crowd of restaurant and resort workers. When not waxing philosophic about his great love for the community spirit of the South Shore and the familial love he has for his anti-corporate job, Chad loves to surf, scuba and attend Burning Man. Andrew is your other voted favorite, and works one of Lahaina’s newest additions to the bar front, on Friday and Saturday nights.

Oh, and the cost is great considering you can’t find much food elsewhere. Located across from Big Beach.

BEST MAI TAI

PHOTO: PIETRO ORTIZ

Tiki Bar at the Ka’anapali Beach Hotel The original Mai Tai, thought to have been invented in 1944, consisted of 17-yearold rum, fresh lime juice, orange Curacao, rock candy and Orgeat syrups.

BEST MAI TAI These days, on Maui, Tiki Bar at the Ka’anapali that recipe has evolved into a Beach Hotel concoction that includes both light and dark rums, pineapple, orange and passion juices and a dash of grenadine. And you’ve decreed that the best place for this debatably tasty cocktail is at the Tiki Bar, where you’re most likely to be in the midst of equal amounts of tourists and locals. And with the Tiki Bar’s friendly bar staff, the proximity to beautiful Ka’anapali Beach as well as KBH’s poolside and delicious snack shop, you’d probably think stale cola tastes good. 2525 Ka’anapali Parkway, Ka’anapali, 661-0011.

They offer a delicious selection of fresh produce, breads, hot foods, local fish, PC meat and other foodstuffs, all guaranteed to be free of yucky things you can’t pronounce. They even carry a full line of nutritional supplements and vitamins to keep you full of mana.

Mulligan’s on the Blue It’s 11 p.m. and you’re starving. Most restaurants on Maui close their kitchens by 9 p.m. so what do you do? You’ve been drinking, so Jack-in-the-Box is an immediate option. But those late-night long lines and memories of morning-after stomach rot makes you re-consider. If you’re on the South Shore, you’re in luck. Mulligan’s offers a surprising selection of pupus until midnight, plus if you buy two you get one free (10 p.m. to midnight). Choose from Maryland-style crab cakes with chili aioli, spinach and artichoke dip, seared ahi, calamari, spring rolls or Irish potato cakes with corned beef, feta cheese and a yogurt rosemary sauce. Your stomach will thank you in the morning. 100 Kaukahi St., Wailea, 874-1131.

Paia Fish Market I think next year we should just rename this the “Paia Fish Market Award,” though to be completely correct, the Market calls their fish sandwich a “burger.” There are several fish options—all slathered in tasty coleslaw— including Ahi, my favorite fish, but I usually just go with the Mahi, if only because I never knew before that it was possible for Mahi to taste this good. 2 Baldwin Ave., Paia, 579-8030.

Bocalino Bistro & Bar If you like to have an occasional cocktail out on the town, chances are you’ve been in some bar filled with the young, gelled and implanted. And if you’re over 25 years old, there’s something about seeing g-strings peeking out the back of low-rise jeans that can make you either feel old (if you’re a woman) or lecherous (if you’re a guy who knows better). But that’s less likely to happen at Bocalino, with its seductive lighting, smooth live grooves and selection of fine liquors that welcome the evening’s more sophisticated imbibers with style and class. By “sophisticated,” I don’t necessarily mean “old”— those low rise jeans may pop in on occasion, albeit sans visible thong-age. And with a late-night menu served until 1 a.m., you could go all night, baby. Yeah, Bocalino’s is the Viagra of the South Shore! 1279 S. Kihei Rd., 874-9299. (SC)

Runners-up: Wailuku, Lahaina and Ross (SC)

BEST PLACE TO WATCH THE SUNSET Makena You guys chose Makena—that golden, undeveloped sprawl from Little Beach to Third Entrance—as the best place to watch the sunset, and I concur. If tons of sand, breaking waves, a stellar view of Molokini, Kaho’olawe and majestic mountains at your back don’t normally do it for you, then how does all of that lit up with a sinking fiery sphere of Maui sun and a sky full of purples and pinks sound? Maybe add a light ocean breeze and a cold one in your hand? I’ll see you there at about seven.

EDIT BEST METER MAID PICK Keith Taguma Maui Police Officer Keith Taguma must hand out the most tickets on the island. I don’t know the stats, but I and everyone else I know who lives and works in Wailuku typically see him wielding the radar gun on Pi’ilani Highway, then later handing out parking tickets in Wailuku Town, then pulling someone over on Kuihelani Highway for speeding. In fact, he writes so many parking tickets and nails so many speeders all over town that I’m beginning to think the real Taguma underwent some trauma—like an accidental shooting, for instance—and was then rebuilt with artificial parts until he became Maui’s own version of Robocop. (JR)

BEST USE OF COUNTY FUNDS Roads Great job, people. You do know that roads are built and maintained by the state, right? Not the county? Yeah, see that means county funds aren’t actually getting spent on roads. Now I know there’s some reason for confusion here, since the county does maintain a Department of Transportation, but road money? That’s a matter for Governor Linda Lingle and her mighty administration, so take it up with her.

BEST PLACE TO CONTEMPLATE LIFE’S EXISTENCE

The Dragon’s Teeth Maui offers many possibilities—the Haleakala crater at sunrise, Hamoa Beach in Hana, the redwood forest at Polipoli—but my favorite is a place called The Dragon’s Teeth in Kapalua. It’s a small promontory right next to D.T. Fleming Beach that eerily resembles the jaw line of a dragon, if that dragon was made out of lava.

It’s also right next to a massive ancient Hawaiian burial ground—the same one that kept the Ritz-Carlton Kapalua from a beachfront location—so you have to be quiet and respectful. (AP)

BEST ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUE Pump Don’t Dump What, you people don’t like it when commercial tour boats and ocean liners release raw sewage into local waters?

Well, you’ve got a lot in common then with the Pump Don’t Dump group (www.pumpdontdump.com), a loose gathering of citizens who raised so much hell at Ma’alaea Harbor that they shamed a bunch—but not all—of the boats that tie up there to start getting their sewage pumped out, convinced the county to pay for a temporary pump-truck for the boats and got the state to pony up some dough to build a proper pump-out facility.

BEST QUESTION EVERY LOCAL POLITICAL CANDIDATE NEEDS TO ANSWER EDIT PICK

Is it moratorium time?

Land development is the core issue of all of Maui’s politics, with every other issue—water use, traffic, education, health care, ocean pollution and affordable housing—branching from it. There’s no question that development has slowed during the last four years of Mayor Alan Arakawa’s administration from the go-go Apana years—though we’ve still seen approvals for the big Pulelehua, Kapalua Mauka and Kapalua Bay projects from Maui Land & Pineapple Co. as well as Charlie Jenck’s giant Wailea 670 deal—but there’s also an increasingly frantic realization that corresponding infrastructure hasn’t caught up. Put simply, developers spend big bucks backing elected officials, and it’s never easy to say no to that kind of money. But something’s gotta change, and now’s a perfect time to start asking the “tough questions.” (AP)

Boy, you people really love West Maui County Council member Jo Anne Johnson. First elected in 2000, she immediately became (in)famous for calling for a moratorium on land development. Yeah, what a nutty idea that was—good thing the county didn’t follow her advice, or we’d just have empty hillsides at Launiupoko to stare at and a lot fewer cars on the road to keep us company when we drive to and from work each day.

Do you people realize that between 1992 and 2002, when he lost the mayor’s office to Alan Arakawa, then-Mayor Apana raked in nearly $1 million in campaign contributions?

BEST COUNTY BLUNDER Abandoned cars In a county that approves huge numbers of big commercial and residential developments without waiting for the corresponding infrastructure—roads, sewer lines, water sources, schools, etc.—to catch up, you chose abandoned cars. Yeah, they’re not pretty to look at when you drive by, but the county has already put up the heat on them with Mayor Arakawa’s much-publicized “No Littah!” campaign.

Dowling Company Seibu’s big, big plans to shovel enough hotels, condos and golf courses into Makena to rival Wailea may be stalled, but in late June the Maui Planning Commission voted 5-2 to approve developer Everett Dowling’s plan to build 71 “luxury” condos—reported asking price: $3 million a piece—on some of the area’s wildest, most sacred oceanfront land.

BEST BEACH TO WATCH BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE Ka’anapali Beach It’s ironic you all chose Ka’anapali as the best place to look at beautiful people, because the last time I was there it was so packed I had to sit next to a fat, bald man who told me to make sure the whale society didn’t take him for a beached whale. But aside from that unlucky encounter, the stretch of sand from Dig Me to Black Rock is a favorite for Westside sun-loving hotties to catch a tan.

When you walk in, the dartboards are in the far left corner, between the stage and the shuffleboard game.

And this is a good thing, because they force you to do one of two things: concentrate and play even better than you normally do— which isn’t going to happen because Henry’s is a bar—or relax and settle in for an even longer game than usual.

BEST SWIMMING BEACH Big Beach I am a huge fan of Big Beach for beach days.

But I was surprised that you voted it the best place to swim. It’s not a place where you just get your toes in and splash around. Actually, Big Beach isn’t a place where you should get in unless you’re willing to get pounded into the sand. I was just there a few days ago, swimming along innocently. My favorite thing to do is swim up to the wave before it crashes and let the water pull me around without feeling any danger. So a huge set rolled in, but I was too far out to make it safely to shore and too close to make it over the break. You can guess what happened next. There’s nothing like rolling around in the washing machine without air for a minute to make you appreciate being alive.

MAUI TIME WEEKLY

Barbarellatones Saturday, 9 p.m. (Opening band: Hinterlander) at Casanova [MUSIC] The Barbarellatones may have saved my life. Or at least, my existence here on Maui. During one of my wife’s semi-regular “WE’RE LEAVING THIS BORING ROCK!” outbursts, she came across an ad for a “Surf Glam Rock” band playing that very night. The BarbarellaTones, fronted by a sexually ambiguous, charismatic singer who introduced himself as “Robbie Revlon,” played campy, suggestive crowd favorites such as “Baby Wants a Corndog” and “Thar She Blows” (which the entire band performed wearing eye patches). But what really stood out were their heartbreakingly beautiful, melodic ballads that brought to mind Hole and Nirvana. I tracked down Mr. Revlon, a.k.a. Robbie Quine, eager to learn more about his band, their upcoming performance at Casanova and how the hell one of his original songs, “Fire of Love,” ended up being featured on The Sopranos.

“For the Sopranos thing,” said Quine. “I just sent a CD to the music supervisor, who liked it and gave it to the director. I guess he liked it too. It ended up in the April 23rd episode called ‘Luxury Lounge.’ The strippers danced to it at the Bada Bing.”

Despite seldom playing live on Maui, Quine is not an inexperienced performer. His gothic glam band, Sex with Lurch, toured the L.A. club scene for years. Asked to recall his most memorable gig, Quine laughed.

“The Fetish Ball, for sure,” he said. “C.C. Deville (of Poison) was in the audience, blowing us kisses. Tons of strippers and drag queens. The whole vibe of the night was a complete freak show. We’re very comfortable in that environment!”

In addition to The Sopranos and the Ball, Quine’s bands have been featured at Oahu’s GirlFest and on KROQ in Los Angeles. That comfort with the L.A. underground scene seems to make Maui an odd choice for a professional musician and self-proclaimed “Surfer by day, Drag Queen by night.”

“That’s true,” Quine said. “Not much is keeping me from returning to L.A. I’ve been recording with Peter DiStefano, the guitarist for Porno for Pyros. He played on the last BTones album.”

He’s been recording at Top Audio in Haiku but plans on returning to California after playing shows here for the next six months to a year.

“I guess these shows are sort of our grand hurrah,” he said.

And what should we expect of those shows?

“More debauchery!” said Quine. “We’ll try to up the sleaze factor. We’ll be a little tighter, too—we were a little rusty last time. And we’re going to have an honorary Barbarellatone—a bull dyke on a bullhorn! She’s a sex android named Teri.”

I asked Quine about dressing in drag.

“I only do it for the shows,” he said. “I love the androgyny of Bowie, T. Rex, Iggy Pop, Alice Cooper. Rock and roll should be sexy and sleazy.”

He was flattered with the Courtney Love comparison.

“I’ve never heard that but I can see the similarities,” Quine said. “We’re both coming from alienation, being lonely or “the freak”—I want to convey beauty and pain.”

Unfortunately pain is something Quine is very familiar with. His song “Misery” chronicles the death of his ex-girlfriend Heidi, who overdosed on heroin with Quine but did not survive.

“Heidi gave me a dark gift,” he said. “That was the end of an old life and the start of a new one. I had some relapses at first but now I’ve been sober for 14 years. Now it’s time to focus on my music. I’m 46 and the glam thing won’t be around forever. I’m just trying to be loving, put out good energy and be the best Robbie I can be.”

And maybe just save a few lives in the process. [COREY NIELSEN]

ThIS WEEK’S PICKS

by Samantha Campos

Indigenous Little Miss Grass Skirt Parallels

Saturday-Sunday, 11 a.m., 1 p.m. and 3 p.m. at Lahaina Cannery Mall

Friday, 6 p.m. at Kihei Community Center [FILM] In 1998, an Aborigine named Bunny Lawrie invited indigenous leaders from around the globe to the southern coast of Australia for a traditional “whale dreaming” ceremony.

The subsequent gathering was attended by Hawaiian, Maori, Sioux, Columbian and Congo elders, as well as British filmmaker Kim Kindersley and Julian Lennon, who co-produced and contributed the theme song for the resulting documentary. The Gathering: Return of the Whale Dreamers, which won the best film award at the Byron Bay (Australia) Film Festival, is back on Maui in response to popular demand. It tells a story of displaced people joining together to honor their ancient land, culture and history in a world where such traditions are becoming increasingly forgotten. (Hmm... remind anyone else of Hawai’i?) This event will commence with music, drumming and a chant, and any donations will be channeled into various organizations supporting indigenous people, the environment and social justice, as well as women’s, children’s and animal charities. The film’s message is simple and clear: Respect the wisdom of native cultures and take action towards the preservation and honor of that wisdom, before it’s too late. More information, as well as film clips, can be found at www.whaledreamers.com, or by calling Patty Medina of Heart Magic Media at 878-8496.

The Kihei Community Center is located at 303 Lipoa St. [COREY NIELSEN]

THURSDAY

[HULA] Yesterday, I was at the mall and saw the keiki hula show and thought to myself, “Self, it’s pretty rad that you live in a place with such great culture.” It’s inspiring to see the generations of tomorrow practicing an art from the original peoples of Hawai’i. Get your dose of hula this weekend with the 8th Annual Keiki Hula Festival and six different shows by hula halaus Te Mau Merahi, Na Kamali’i Nani O Lahaina, Na Pua Melia, Kanoeau Dance Academy, Na Kamali’I O Ke Akua, and Te Tiare Patitifa.

MAUI TIME WEEKLY

The Marlboro Man is Dead Wednesday, 5 & 7:30 p.m. at Castle Theater, MACC [FILM] Paul Mulshine, a columnist for the Star-Ledger of Newark, NJ, wrote recently that, “The tobacco companies kill Americans at the rate of about one World Trade Center tragedy every five days.” And it’s widely known that the most famous cowboy of Marlboro cigarette advertising, Wayne McLaren, died of lung cancer at age 51. Now, these facts aren’t funny. But Thank You for Smoking, a darkly comedic portrayal of the depths the tobacco industry will go to keep the hope of cigarette consumption alive, is wickedly so. Aaron Eckhart, Katie Holmes and a cast of greats, bring to life through unscrupulous characters and intelligently satirical dialogue, both sides of the idea of commerce, freedom of choice, and corporate morality in a tight, cylindrical package of hilarity and insight.

Indie is for Lovers Sunday, 6:30-9:30 p.m. at Café Marc Aurel [ALT. MUSIC] If you’re one of those pretentiously music-savvy people who lists 23 obscure bands under the “music” section of your MySpace page, this is a show for you! TJ Grant (pictured above), an up-and-comer in the Seattle indie music scene, will perform á la acoustic guitar in Wailuku. He’ll be appearing solo this Sunday but he’s usually with his band, If Bears Were Bees, leading listeners through a maze of melancholy lyrics and melodies. Although he thinks that his music sounds like “the feeling you get while watching the last episode of Six Feet Under,” I’m thinking he’ll sound more like Fiona Apple with an Adam’s apple. No cover.

One Main Plaza - Wailuku www.dklevincompany.com

You, Me and Dupree is a situation comedy that subsists purely on vibe, namely Owen Wilson’s ever-boyish vibe of an innocence that has overstayed its welcome long into adulthood. As the title character Dupree, Wilson plays the loyal best friend to his newly married pal Carl (played with easy humility by Matt Dillon).

You, Me and Dupree

★★★★★ Rated PG-13/100 mins.

Carl and his newlywed wife Molly (Kate Hudson) live under the shadow of her possessive father Mr. Thompson (Michael Douglas) who doubles as Carl’s real estate tycoon boss. But it’s Dupree that casts the longest shadow over the couple’s lives when they give him a place to stay for a “few days” while he hunts for a job after losing his former employment for being absent while he played best man at the couple’s wedding on Maui. A hilarious dinner table scene with the four main characters spikes the movie into a stratosphere of humor beyond its otherwise predictable restraints.

The chemistry between Wilson, Hudson, Dillon and Douglas is promising but screenwriter Michael Le Sieur and co-directors Anthony and Joe Russo never let scenes breathe long enough for the potential sparks to fly. In one potentially hilarious scene, Mr. Thompson suggests to Carl that he should consider getting a vasectomy.

Carl protests diplomatically but accepts a brochure on the topic before the scene suddenly cuts. For all of Mr. Thompson’s wily designs at knocking Carl off balance, we’re barely let in on the joke that he’s merely testing his sonin-law to see what the guy is made of.

The unseen inner mettle of men is the main theme of the movie. Carl is an average guy who has married up. He works a cubical job for his fiancée’s dad until the

marriage prompts Mr. Thompson to promote Carl to a dream job overseeing a new land development that Carl has proposed. At Carl and Molly’s wedding party Dupree gives Carl a morale-boosting speech about Carl’s unique sparkle, which he refers to as his “Carlness.”

As the movie goes along we witness Carl’s job and personal challenges as they paint Matt Dillon’s character into a corner. He has the potential for greatness with his adorable elementary school teacher wife by his side, but Carl lacks the finesse of intention that Dupree carries in spades in spite of his authority-defying slacker attitude.

The movie stays in a holding pattern of waiting for Carl and Dupree to reveal their inner natures. The irony here is that for as much as Dupree seems reliant on Carl—he understands Carl much better than Molly does—Carl needs Dupree to show him how to prioritize his life.

Even so, Carl is waiting for his own light to go on. This blind leading the blind gets a kick-start when Dupree nearly burns Carl and Molly’s house down while getting LastTango-in-Paris freaky to the strains of “Funky Cold Medina” with the concealed librarian from Molly’s school.

Molly is kind enough to give Dupree a second chance at staying in the house, and he rises to the occasion by going out of his way to clean up the house, do a letter-writing favor for Carl, and cook up a mean dinner for his hosts. Naturally, the effort backfires when Carl misreads the gesture as a way of stealing Molly’s affections away.

A fever-pitch chase scene between Dupree and the security officer at Carl’s workplace answers the audience’s desire for a narrative crescendo. But it’s a stopgap device that masks the film’s lack of comedic richness.

Kate Hudson’s comic skills are squandered and we’re left with Owen Wilson’s contagious sense of decadence to make us feel good about a comedy with very little momentum.

You could say that You, Me and Dupree is a movie saved by that certain Wilsonian touch. It’s closer to what Dupree would call “Owenness.” MTW

One of your primary recurring life lessons is releasing your attachments to things—especially hoped-for ideas. There’s one thing in particular right now that I’m talking about. Whether it’s a specific relationship with another person, or a different way of doing your current relationship, it’s important to you—and therefore ever so hard to just chill out about. Probably whoever else is involved isn’t making it any easier—s/he’s engaged in all sorts of button-pushing. Still, if you can, look past that shit. It’ll certainly work out better if you do.

VIRGO (AUG. 23-SEPT. 22) Yesterday I watched a documentary that featured leopard slugs mating. Entwined around each other, they dangled from a thread of thick mucous, extended their exceptionally long, prehensile penises (they’re hermaphroditic), and wrapped those around each other, expanding them until they formed a massive globular shape in which they could exchange sperm. Well, until I saw that, I thought some of your courtship and sensual practices were weird. Now I’ve decided you’re plenty normal. This week, don’t let anyone make you feel like a leper. Compared to some of the other shit out there, you’re just plain vanilla. Own it, and enjoy it.

LIBRA (SEPT. 23-OCT. 22) If you act shittily towards someone, watch out. We’re living in an era where your assholic behavior could be caught on tape and broadcast to the world. You never know who’s recording (probably covertly) your rudeness or abuse, and where online it’ll consequently pop up again. This would be especially galling for you, partially because of your extreme sensitivity to others’ opinions, but mostly because being rude or abusive is definitely out of character for you. However, you can’t say it’s never happened. Just be sure you can say it almost never happens, and definitely won’t this week.

Kaimana’s Beach Hale

CANCER (JUNE 21-JULY 22)

I can spot a fellow Leo a mile away. We’re rarely the funniest, loudest or most physically beautiful people in the room. But most of us do possess a sort of radiance that’s unmatchable by any other sign. It’s true, some people are completely immune to it, but many are drawn to it compulsively. These are the ones I’d like to remind you about this week. You’ve spent too much of the past six months trying to impress people who couldn’t give two shits (because they’re looking for the most hilarious or gorgeous person around). There are so many people who already think you’re the cat’s meow. Focus on them this week, and give them the love they so richly deserve—and actually want.

Rutting season among herd beasts is a favorite time for predators, because the males use up all their energy screwing and fighting other testosterone-charged males for the right to screw. I don’t suppose you’re horny enough to use up all your vitality getting laid—but you are screwing yourself by devoting just that bit too much time and energy in its pursuit. I couldn’t possibly ask you to tone down your extreme personality in the long-term—it’s part of what makes you so fascinating and sexy. But this week could you act more like, I don’t know, an Aquarius?

SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 22-DEC. 21) Some men will boast about anything (especially if they’re drunk enough): how expensive their cars are, the size of their dicks, their ability to drink more than the next guy. You’re generally too cool to get sucked into that ridiculousness. But you can occasionally let your ego get out of hand, and that’s a danger this week. Be careful to avoid another kind of bragging contest, one with consequences more serious than a few rolled eyes, laughs at your expense, and a terrible hangover the next day.

WANTED: Interns

Maui Time has immediate openings for internships.

If you are a high school or college student, or recent grad this may be the opportunity for you! Potential positions in editorial, graphic design, accounting, or sales could give you the experience or college credits that you need. Previous experience is not necessary. Budding interns should want to work in a dynamic newspaper office with a great crew.

Please send a resume to 33 N. Market St., Ste. 201, Wailuku, HI 96793 or call 808-244-0777 x107 and speak to Jennifer.

My dog will brave massive thunderstorms, long, chaotic road trips, screaming children with grabby hands, fireworks and clumsy drunk people with equal aplomb. But the wind rustling a curtain or making a door swing fills him with tremendous anxiety. I wish I could figure out what’s going on in his head so I could help him get over his fears. I wish the same thing for you—because to me, some of your most immediate anxieties are as nonsensical as being terrified by a gentle breeze. Fear doesn’t have to make sense. But (unlike my dog) you can use logic to help live with it (and without being limited by it). This week, try that.

AQUARIUS (JAN. 20-FEB. 18) You’re a pretty astute and together person, but in one area of your life, you suck. It’s as if you’ve fallen completely asleep, and you’re making important decisions in the surreality of your dreams. I doubt they’d hold much water for you, either, if you’d manage to actually realistically examine them.

Unfortunately, these choices have to do with things that are essentially non-rational—like who you’re attracted to (and who you’re not)—so it’s understandable that they’re immune to logic or common sense.

But whether you act on these irrational, dreamlike urges is another matter. Get advice from someone you trust—someone you think really knows how to live his/her life—then follow it.

PISCES (FEB. 19-MARCH 20) Some Pisces don’t do much self-promotion, ostensibly to avoid being like those people who are constantly, obnoxiously, selling themselves and what they do. But you could (and should) get away with doing a bit more advertising of your virtues than you have. After all, you have a lot more to offer than most of those sell-outs; you’re actually original and talented. I’m not asking you to become a total attention whore, but being psychotically shy or modest isn’t going to get you anywhere. I know, I know—you’re not even sure you want to get anywhere. But we want—and need—you to. So do it for us, would you?

ARIES (MARCH 21-APRIL 19) No one expects you to be realistic, Aries. It’s not in your essential nature, which is wired to act upon hopes and aspirations, not cynically limited realities. There are plenty of dreamers out there, but these days hardly anyone is willing to leap, repeatedly, based on self-faith alone. There are times when reality ought to intrude and tell you to pursue a different course—but this isn’t one of them. This might ultimately not be the path for you. But there’s no way to figure that out, one way or the other, until you’ve proceeded quite a ways further down it.

TAURUS (APRIL 20-MAY 20) Things aren’t going so well with one particular arena of your life, so you’re thinking of paring back how much time and energy you put into that aspect of things. Bad move. Now, when things are so crap, is when you should be amping up your efforts in that department. You might think that toning things down will make them better, but you’re dead wrong. What you actually need to do is step up your game. Make things more intense, time-consuming, and perhaps even a bit out of control. Then, weirdly, they’ll also get good. Probably really good.

GEMINI (MAY 21-JUNE 20) Most Geminis I know are pretty up on the latest things. But there are a few who’ve managed to fall (almost) hopelessly behind. These poor Twins just throw up their hands and turn their attention to something else, because it’s simply too daunting to jump into now. I hope you’re not one of these, but if you are, get some help. It’s not too late to catch up. If you’re stuck in the back of the class do what every dumb jock has done when he wanted to stay on the team—get some nerd to help you get a passing grade.
