What's that old saying, Iconoclasm is the mother of great discussion?

Don't actually be offended, think of it as another "Tiki Central High" debate thread and leave out the e-indignation for a change of pace.

We should be celebrating the fact that we can have self loathing liberal Americans getting to mix it up with their conservative xenophobe Tiki bretheren all on one thread about some oldies act who seems to rate near Jimmy Buffet on the Tiki appreciation scale!

Sit back, relax, enjoy. Watch the subtext, get a feel for hipster cliquesmanship with the defense of Cat being done in the same breath as belittling his music, savor the clash of agendas, revel in the sloganeering....mmmmmmmmmm.

Sorry, got lost in the moment. I'll be sorry to see this thread reach its inevitable conclusion.
