Paddy - I see you're from Florida; perhaps the only Tiki culture you've experienced is in a Florida tiki bar. Reading through posts here in Tiki Central I've learned that tiki bars in Florida - with some very notable exceptions - are very different things from what we consider Tiki. Florida Tiki bars often don't have actual tikis, and project more of a Jimmy Buffet/tropical/island atmosphere.

Have you been to the Mai Kai? Maybe a trip there will help you to better understand the tiki vibe.

No tiki in our Florida Tiki Bars.. just some good home town 'Meth' for your smokin pleasure..
