Don Ho is a classic but here's my review of the show I saw a couple of years back.

It's very expensive to have dinner and the show so we reserved seats for just the show (includes a drink). We waited in a long line and then were brought in to a large box-shaped auditorium with a seating arrangement that reminded me of a high school cafeteria with long tables that were aligned perpindicular to the stage so that you had to look over the shoulder of the person in front of you to see. The drink was weak and watery.

Don Ho himself was pretty good (but his drunkard schtick wasn't as charming as Dean Martin's). His jokes were funny at times and awful at other times. The worst thing was he brought out several other entertainers that he said were friends of his. A couple of them were good but most were bad. Then he showed videos of his daughter who is in her early 20's and performs in a contemporary R&B style. At that point we quietly left and spent the rest of the evening looking at the ocean while sipping Mai Tais.
