Interesting thread. I was in the 'Art Crowd' all through High School, definately nerdish for the first 2 years, but hung with the local toughs from my hood. Then I changed. 3rd year I started playing guitar in a hard rock band. Still hung with the thugs, but also the Cools, and Freaks. Was part of 3 distinct groups of friends. Many of whom I'm still in contact with. Never liked the drugs, was always a boozer, and cigarette fiend. As far as Tiki is concerned, My parents house was very 'Googie' and Googie and Tiki go hand in hand. Always liked Exotica Music, exotic foriegn music in general. Used to incorporate many Arabic and Oriental patterns in the music I wrote and performed. While I enjoy Drawing and Carving Tiki items, I don't limit myself. I'm very much into classical art forms and Classical Music. But love a bit of Metal and Punk too!
