More Postcards from Hawaii

I am back in Hawaii again visiting the in-laws for the holidays.  When Cynthia and I were here last September we came across some weird signs and flyers.  (And yes, the Polaroid of the $9,999 rock is currently framed and in our dining room at home.) 

ArsenioLast week we were in Honolulu and came across this brilliant flyer:

How long before they figured out they needed to add "the band" to the flyer?  How many shows with angry crowds yelling "We want Arsenio!  Get off the stage!"

The closer you look at this thing, the better it gets. I'd like to imagine that DJ Sounds and Lighting is an actual person.   Imagine, over the speakers in a dark club you hear, "Ladies and gentlemen, make some noise for DJ Sounds and Lighting!"

Happy Chanukkah, Merry Christmas, and all that.

Don't diss DJ Sounds and Lighting. He's got skills like you wouldn't believe. DJ Karaoke, on the other hand, is just wack.

RE: Arsenio the band
I think that you folks had not
see Arsenio perform. Cause many of
our Asian clients think Arsenio
the band is one of the better bands
in Hawaii...

Arsenio the Band

We Japanese gals demand that
Hawaii bring back Arsenio the
Band to Honolulu Restaurant Row. This place is dead without Arsenio the Band. This
band make Restaurant Row more
lively.
Arigato!
私たちは皆あなたを愛しArsenio
