Tiki at Beau Rivage? - General Tiki

I feel that a lot of great vintage pop culture is NOT out there because of the exorbitant copyright fees the big media conglomerates ask nowadays. I mean if DISNEY cuts down on the amount of ELVIS material in Lilo &Stitch because they can't afford it, WHO the &#@&! is ever gonna be able to afford it? (I fear this for my Tiki docu, which I want to fill with great footage..) Also, sueing is the bain of the modern America, fencing in pools, inhibiting freedom for fear, I am not going to contribute. This place seems to be in line with that other ilk like the Tiki Bob's in Seattle (and other cities) which uses Tiki simply as a buzzword. I hate to see that but it is unavoidable, all I can do is educate. Off course their art and font is straight from House Industries, not self made.
