Uncle's Awa Club

If you live on the Big Island, you know what has happened to Uncle Robert's place in Kalapana in recent months. Hundreds show up for the Wednesday farmer's market and infamous jam session that follows. Right at the edge of the Kalapana lava flow in the Puna district, they say it's where the road ends and aloha begins. This authentic local style awa bar is as Old Hawaii as it gets. They may or may not have food for this show. You may or may not get a seat at one of the luau style picnic tables. But you are guaranteed a great time with plenty of awa and drinks from the bar, not to mention the friendly, low key vibe of the place. John plays for 2 hours on a Sunday afternoon...the perfect way to end your weekend. No advanced tickets for this one. Just show up and pay at the door.
