Flange The event for September 15 is a big 'GO'. It'll be a nice little pre-Hukilau warm-up! I'll be posting a new topic making an 'official' reminder / announcement in a day or two. But, at risk of redundancy, here's the scoop... September 15: In celebration of the 70th anniversary of Trader Vic's and the 60th anniversary of the invention of Trader Vic's signature drink - the Mai Tai - Trader Vic's and Tiki Road Trip author James Teitelbaum have teamed up to bring you a monthly celebration featuring exotic drinks, Polynesian performance, sumptuous delicacies and mysterious music! This month: Special "Exotica Unplugged" performance from midwest surf-rock legends The Cocktail Preachers. Hula dancers from Barefoot Hawaiian. Lei making by Gwen from Barefoot Hawaiian. Free door prizes courtesy of Surrey Books: new stuff from the artist Shag. Free door prizes from Mai Tai Magazine: free copies of the 'zine. Pop art Tiki prints on display from Chicago artist Esqui. JT's Kon-Tiki Sound System (spinning vintage Exotica and Hawaiian music). Tiki carver Dave from Lake Tiki. 1/2 price Zombies. Free pupus. The legendary Singapore Symphony drink: served in a pineapple shell and only available at the monthly Tabu Tiki event. Tabu Tiki Nights will be held the third Wednesday of every month (the further dates planned are: September 15, October 20, November 17). The island madness begins at 7:00 and lasts until 11:00. No cover! It's never too late for Tiki carvers, artisans, and entertainers to arrange to bring their work for display (contact James): [email protected] Updated live entertainment schedules and further information can be found on Trader Vic's web site Trader Vic's is located in the lower level of the Palmer House Hilton at 17 E.
