Thanks for the congrats, Grog!

Man oh man, that was a blast last night. THANK YOU to everyone who came out to Hula Hula to enjoy the sunny late afternoon and soak up the Exotica. Sales were way bigger than I expected, so a huge MAHALO for supporting the CD like that.

To the Seattle area Ohana, especially Sweetpea, Peter (Monkeyskull), Ray, Elicia & Frank/Todd, Palapala (thanks for the sweet mug!) & Lopaka- your enthusiasm converted a BUNCH of non-tikifiles last night! Thanks too for the calls for a 2nd encore playing of the disc- that was a kick!

Kinny~ You got many compliments & guffaws on the flyers that were strewn around the place. Thanks again for those.

& Tiki tOny- you were missed last night, but your art for the CD was well loved. Thank YOU again.

Hula Hula's manager Taylor and bartender Phil "the man" really came through for us. I felt the place go up a notch, for sure.

And to the Seattle area musicians who shocked the hell out of me by showing up and spreading the love - big thanks. Hope you're now registered TC members!

SO happy you all dug the CD. I hope you continue to for a long time. Your kind words throughout the playings really knocked me out. So from my heart & my bamboo skin...

MAHALO~!
