"It's not as though the Kahiki Moon was hip-hop all the time. But in those crucial weekend evenings, you have to do what will get and keep people in the place to survive"

sorry swanky, but it didn't....

"If you wanna get right down to it, I prefer a really quiet tiki bar. Having it packed, even with tiki-philes and Martin Denny playing is not the right mood."

then you might as well stick to sitting in your basement and drinking by yourself....

my point is, tiki themed places don't NEED "acts" like "DJ SINISTA" to thrive, as the places I mentioned in my previous post..... trader vics, hala kahiki, mai kai, lee's hawaiian islander, prove on a daily basis. NONE of them has a dj with hip hop, yet they're all doing WELL. Not only did the hala kahiki not have live music (much less hip hop) they don't even serve food, yet every night.... the place is PACKED. HELL, ...IF dj sinista walked into the hala kahiki and (provided he could READ the dress code sign) wanted to have a drink, he'd have to pull his pants back up over his exposed underwear, take his ball-cap off, and go home to put on a better shirt, just to simply DRINK..... and they still wouldn't let him "scratch n' spin"
