Aaron, a little info on these: that place the tiki hut on 15th st. is a shop or garage some guys have that they work on/ detail /store/build cars. I work directly across the street and see it everyday when I pull out of the driveway. It used to be just a plain warehouse/shop. Then one day after work there was a large tiki on the roof, then a few weeks later another one appeared. Then many months later the mural was painted. There is also some more murals around the corner at a car wash place on Placentia with lots of bamboo. As for the Tiki Hut nightclub, I drove past there for years wondering how long until it went out of business and I could make an offer on that "ugly head thingy" on the roof. One day I drove by and it was gone and the place was painted and renamed Rain. It was originally Zubies, a country western bar and shared a parking lot with the Cuckoo's Nest which made for an interesting time every night at 2a.m. when they both emptied out. Which inspired a Vandal's song. I too know K.C. and live right by him on the peninsula. Next time stop in for a drink at the Red Tide Room.
