As reluctant as I am to join in on a MadTiki thread, I am announcing that I WILL take my four names as I promised and I will send out 4 cds.
First four to email me is in, and Tangaro can just guilt me into some rather un-gentlemenly comments.

Personally, I agree with DawnTiki. I just wanted to see what all the hype was about and to just show Fatuhiva that his were not the only worthy ears to hear this stuff.

And as much as I appreciate the efforts of Dawn and Muggler and everyone else to get this sound out to the Tiki-People, I will stick with my traditional Hawaiian, Polynesian sounds and those never-out-of-date Exotica sounds of the tiki lounge.

So, I say come to me (via e-mail to [email protected]) you tiki-tired and Witco-weary, you restless, you tiki collecting brethren...
The first 4 will be kept in my agreement. (Maybe a couple of others if they suck up to me...my ego badly needs stroked.)

I will not send any thank you letters to anyone who did not directly contibute to this cause. If that were the case, I'd be sending letters out to Styx, Kiss, AC/DC, Benny Goodman, Prince (yes, Prince - several times), Jimmy and Tommy Dorsey, Willie Nelson, Guns 'n Roses, The Cure, Jan Hammer (for Miami Vice, of course)...and probably a million others!

And, hell, with the price of US Postal samps the way they are today, I'll just have to say "Bite Me...and thank you very much."

A sincere thank you to Muggler and DawnTiki for allowing me the opportunity to listen (with my unworthy ears) and see what the big deal was.

For those of you who have not listened to it, I encourage you to get your names in! Don't be ashamed...come on! We'll all go to jail together!
Seriously, it is cheesie, but I think we ALL have to listen so that Fatheaduhvia is not alone in the world.
