OVER AT ZANZABAR, the guys from 104.3 XME and Da Lion Productions are making it possible to surf in a nightclub on Sunday nights. We're not talking about crowd surfing either -- there's an actual surfboard set up on the second floor of the club.
The "Tsunami Surf Simulator" is hooked up to a 61-inch television with a Playstation 2 and allows players to shred virtual waves in the game "Transworld Surf."
Qualifying will continue over the next two weeks for a shot at more than $1,500 in cash and prizes that will be given away at the finals on Jan. 19. Also on hand to keep the party moving each week are XME DJs Big John, KT, G-Man, Hawaiian Ryan and Da Lion of Judah. 18 and over are welcome at Zanzabar, and don't forget about the $1 parking at the Waikiki Trade Center ...
THIS SUNDAY also marks the return of comedian Wayne Brady to the islands for the second time this year. Brady last visited in May, and is likely in town to celebrate the holidays with his local-born wife and family, in addition to performing at the Sheraton-Waikiki.
