Australia calling. A Reaganomics refugee who came here in 1981 after a life in the music biz and a fascination for Hawaiiana. Living in Sydney, I get to Alohaland at least twice a year, usually either Kona, Paiai Maui or Hanalei. At 59, have a tropical backyard with fountain in my inner city compound and the obligatory parrot, a seven year old Eclectus. The closest I've come to this forum is a sub to Tiki Magazine and decided to join this weekend to try to find a Tiki urn (or carving now) for my impending ashes when I go from the last call for a mai tai to being chilled and then charred.

Look forward to hanging out. If you're into travel, check out my site http://www.philtripp.com which shows off some of my travel writing. Oh... and I like pinot noir over cocktails.

"chilled and charred"... I like that. Welcome, and you're forgiven for the pinot noir thing...
