Despite some of the colourful background on Boyd, this jackass Flomberg took aim at the only Tiki bar that we have had in Denver for years. I can understand the problem he had with the bar's namesake, but this so called journalist had a personal vendetta and what's worse, he elaborated on a situation and fabricated a story to meet his own selfish needs.

To further clarify my point, the bar was operated by parties other than Boyd Rice and Flomberg's shaky article on the place was unfair to everyone else involved. True, any press is good press and Flomberg probably helped business more than he hurt it, but I am sure that was not his intent.

For what it's worth, without Tiki Boyd's the Tiki scene that we have enjoyed in Denver may have been set back untold years, as it was a great meeting place.

Dave Flomberg is an arch enemy of Modern Drunkard Magazine, Tiki and in my opinion he is an enemy of local culture in general. Shit fire. Compare my critique to his. Maybe I should turn his ass in for plagerism. Moreover I am sure he didn't mind paying $14.00 bucks a drink as the paper picked up the tab.

That is my rant.

No offense Helz. Thanks for the pics and the article. I just get steamed at this guy.

Check out some of the banter over at Modern Drunkard on this.
It is old but very interesting.
