So I read this, and remember getting chastised by a member on the Tiki Snob question over in General Tiki. The member who will remain nameless (and should be noted said member has since removed his posts), was evidently a huge Buffet fan. I had stated I don't feel any of the Jimmy Buffet genre fits here, as is also stated in the FAQ's. So he came at me with this post;

"dewey-surf, you obviously don't know Jimmy Buffet. Jimmy is a friend of mine. I played with him for many years and I can tell you, he is more tiki then most tiki's. Obviously, he has a commercial image and that image is predicated on what sells. But as far as tiki goes in his private life, I can tell you he gets it. I think it's important to separate the man from the myth, or in Jimmy's case, the PR. AND THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT. OR JIMMY."

Funny. That Jimmy has his pulse on the scence what with balloon animals and all.
