Another wonderful Lodge Meeting at the mayflower.

Loyal Lodge brothers and sisters, thanx SO much for making our second annual Lodge Meeting and Swap meet a great time and big success.

Thank you for supporting the vendors, it was nice to see so many people walking away with cool stuff (including the band members!) and thanx to the vendors for making working so hard and making this such a fun event.

For those of you who were at Lodge Night 1, hopefully you noticed how many more Mayflower members came out for this one. Always great to see the older folks mixing with us young (sort of) people and having a great time. Sausage rolls, bangers in a bun, mai tais, jungle jetsetters....a good time indeed.

Happy Birthday to Big Tiki Dude and Amanda from Nelson's Tiki Hut.

It was also great to see Witchdoctor Crazy Al pay a house call to us onstage and add some of his voodoo coconut rhythms. Good stuff.

Also, thanx to my fellow Tikiyaki brothers who always make the gig so worthwhile by playing their hearts out.

One thing....We played one long concert style set as opposed to our normal 2 shorter sets. I'd love to hear people's opinions on that. Tho' it is a bit more tiring for the band, I really think it was better show wise. What did you guys think ?

Anyway, thanx again to everyone who made this a great night !

Jim
