Sure, you could stay home tonight and watch Katharine, Taylor or Elliott get booted off "American Idol" to face an uncertain post-Cowell world — hometown mall grand openings, or big-screen flicks with Beyonce, Jamie Foxx and Eddie Murphy? Or you could head to the Honolulu Club and catch live jazz with the Honolulu Jazz Quartet, Ginai and Robert Shinoda at 6:30 p.m., then go down to Ryan's Grill at 9 p.m., where Kapena will surely give up "Masese" before calling it a night. Then catch Linus, The Malcognitas and The Miltons at the Wave Waikiki (final week!) till 4 a.m.
