[MUSIC/CULTURAL] When I was preggers with my daughter, her daddy and I went to watch Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon with some friends at the Kukui Mall in Kihei. What I remember most about that night is that I got major indigestion from too much Chinese food, and thought that my unborn kid was going to karate-chop herself right out of my uterus. This near-disaster happened during that fight scene between the two badass martial arts divas and involved a whole lot of drumming. If you’re looking to induce labor, or maybe hoping to start the whole pregnancy process (I don’t know about you, but drumming turns me on), head over to the MACC and catch Zenshin Daiko’s 8th annual Taiko Festival. Maui’s Ryukyukoku Matsuri Daiko will open the show, then Zenshin Daiko and Portland Daiko will follow with a mix of dance and drum as well as contemporary, traditional Okinawan and Japanese music. Banzai! Tickets: $15. Call 242-7469. [LILIANA BEGLEY]
