Black Velvet Flag - General Tiki

They all listen to either that cutesy-wootsie funk crap or that awful durgy-grungy metal that seems to be popular with the "rebels". I don't know what the demographic age-group is for people who are into Tiki-but it seems to me a lot of us are getting a little up there in years. Being this is the modern world the appeal of Tiki and rock'n'roll among the middle-aged set are bound to mix. I know I like them both quite a bit. I always liked the music of James(Chance)White. Didn't he have a group called the Contortions as well? I like the weirdness of it. I'm getting long winded in my middle-age. [ Edited by: SlovakTiki on 2003-01-07 06:16 ]
