Polynesian Joe's - 869 Magazine Street - New Orleans

You know, between this, Aloha Sharkeez, and that new Tiki Bob's chain, I am going to have to come up with a new ranking on the Tiki Bar Review Pages or future editions of Tiki Road Trip just for these places (get ready for another 80's movie reference) - THE FINGER!

What do we call these places?

Fratiki (Frat - Tiki)?
No, I don't want to sully the holy word Tiki mixing it with the anti-Tiki itself: Frat.

Knuckhead Luau? Too clunky.

Any ideas for a convinient word to clearly classify these places?

Constants:

Girls who shout "woooooooo"! a lot, especially when doing a mostly booze-free shot.

Pineapple and grendine "mai-tais".

Lack of Tikis, few that exist afre colorful and cartoony.
Worse: a "party-animal" tiki mascot.

Techno, hip hop, or classic rock DJ.
dB level above 100 (technical term for: TOO LOUD!).

Bikini contests.

Sticky concrete floors, easily hosed down.
