Jack Johnson's Kokua Festival was held on Earth Day weekend

either at the Waikiki Shell on Oahu or on the island of Maui
and it sold out quickly every year because of the top entertainers
who appeared. The Kokua Festival is taking a break in
2009 but the organizers are hoping to bring it back in 2010.

is hosting an auction that will begin on April 22, 2009
