I have a little light to shed on TikiWorld.com, but it's probably not of any use. I met the owner of TikiWorld.com when I lived in Seattle -- a really good friend of mine was in a band with a guy named Todd who worked for Warren Wyatt, the owner of TikiWorld.com. Todd had created the TikiWorld.com website for him. When I met Warren, he was just starting TikiWorld.com, he was excited about it because he was really into tiki stuff, but I didn't get the idea that TikiWorld.com was really going to be the focus of his attention for long (this was in 2002 or 2003). He also owns WorldSound (worldsound.com), a label or mangement company or something that focuses on Hawaiian music. Warren told me he was Don Tiki's manager, or something like that -- I don't remember specifically what he claimed, but it sounded fishy. I don't doubt that he's worked with Don Tiki on something, it just sounded like he was maybe overstating it. Warren seemed like a nice enough guy, but I didn't exactly get an "on-the-ball" vibe off of him.
