Jeff - we were at the Catalina Tiki Fest in 2006, and I didn't actually realize until now that there were other events in Catalina several years prior to that. Yes, The Dynotones played, as well as The Smokin' Menehunes, APE, and King Kuk and The Friki Tikis. There were other bands too, but I don't recall the names (I'm sure that info can be found by searching the forums under Catalina Tiki Fest, if anyone is curious). It was pretty much our first real "TC" event, and it was a total blast, but I've heard that there won't be another, sadly. I wouldn't be surprised if part of the reason is that it was a logistical nightmare for the bands and vendors? If it ever were to happen again, we'd be there in a heartbeat, and I can name many others that would too.

Didn't Holden put it on? Betcha he has the answers. :)
