Just joined. For me, it all started with Hawaii Five-O. Although when I watch it now I sometimes find myself rooting for the bad guys. In any case, Jack Lord as McGarrett might merit a massive tiki carving in his honor. As might Jerry Garcia and Ayn Rand, but I digress. I have a whole lot of Exotica and Hawaiiana records, and play a rather strange and unkempt style of guitar myself. There is much talk about "magic" and "powers" connected to pop tiki, and yet I figure, mightn't this really be a fun and colorful way of referring to one's own powers to make wonderful things happen, when ignited by an attitude of joy and a gentle but firm attitude towards the world characterized by questions like, "Why not?" and "Who said?"?
