The show was amazing! A-Maze-ING! Beautiful venue. Fluid Floyd, Perry Coma, you guys have created something unique and wonderful. A neo tiki-culture show. I hope all tiki enthusiasts get a chance to see something so wonderful as this. We were interested in comparing what the crowd would be like vs a LA tiki crowd. What we noticed right off is that the Honolulu crowd, for the most part, was very up scale looking. Well Dressed. LA has that dressed down thing going too often. When the cruise ship started to leave behind the band, that was just too much! My friend Sam commented that the ship wasn't moving, we were. - that image, plus my second drink, was enough to put a mild spin on my head for the night.

All the songs were great! - Favorite song was ...any song with Delmar deWilde. He's the ultimate front man for a tiki band. A lounge mix of Bruce Cambel and Wayne Newton. I can't get enough of that guy. Love Potion Number 9 was hot!
Also, Jim Howard, I think, on flute and clarinet, wow - a real deal jazz musician.
Of course the Axolotl dance with the singer wearing the four foot tiki headdress was quite a spectacle. I hadn't seen anything so strange and funny since the Burning Man festival. It was so strange it was bordering on performance art.
Hot freaking dancers! Great female singers! (That Devil costume was smoking!) What ever Lola wants...she can have!

I can't wait for the next concert!

And yeah, some sort of TC id is a good idea. I did meet Gecko, (recognized him from photos in Tiki Magazine) What a cool guy! Ran into Tiki Al from LA! Very fun seeing you buddy! And it was really nice meeting Fluid Floyd - you sir, are a genius!
