Sorry if I sound incredibly dense here, but I was just reading "Incredibly Strange Music" and this old tiki bar, Kelbo's, was mentioned. I'm not sure I've ever noticed anyone mention it here, which would lead me to believe that:

1} It actually HAS been mentioned, but I don't check here enough;

2. It has been torn down;

3. It has been horribly remodeled; or

4. It HASN'T been mentioned and I have just rediscovered an old tiki bar (yeah, right!)

Apparently, there were two. There was one on Fairfax that was torn down. As of 1993 when Incredibly Strange Music was published, it sounds like the Kelbo's on West Pico Blvd. was still there. But a lot can happen in 10 years! I'm sure this place is mentioned in the BOT (all the more reason I should finally buy it), but I thought I would just ask here. Anyway, thanks in advance.

BTW, does anyone now if Stuart Swezey and Brian King of Amok Books are members here?
