If anyone has any specific questions about the decor, the guy who designed it all is a pal of mine. I can/do talk to him.

Don't get me wrong - I also plan to patronize and support Rock A Tiki for as long as I am able - my comments on it's predicted lack of longetivity were perhaps a little portentious, but I don't mean to give the impression that I am not enthusiastic about Rock A Tiki - I am VERY enthusiastic about it! The rock music in the juke was a given from the start: between the nighborhood the bar is in and the name of the place, having an all-exoitca juke was too much to ask for, unfortunately.

One correction - I stated that the mugs were from Tiki Farm, but my designer friend tells me they're using the Dynasty mugs in reality.

...and the book (Tiki Road Trip) is coming out in April (maybe March). Shag's cover is done - looks AWESOME - and Sven's intro has been in my hands for a while too. The graphic designer is laying out the book as we speak. The book has 300% more data than my old web page, and fewer typos! It is PACKED full of data on Tiki Bars, past and present (thanks for asking and giving me an excuse to plug it yet again!).
