I totally agree with this statement, it's a reason I don't really care for the tiki pop culture and all these rules of what people think should or should not be tiki. Why do you come here and post here, then? Simple, I like polynesian culture and tikis, is that good enough for you? Or do I need to write a book to have an opinion? Sorry but I don't need people telling me what kind of music I need to listen to or what kind of drinks I need to drink for it to be considered tiki, I'm more interested in the culture and could care less about the pop culture to it.
