Lucas, you know I've never met you. I looked at this picture and compared it with your cello(?) pic. I wasn't sure if it was you but same haircut, some body type, etc. I thought you looked younger than the other guy but I assumed it must be you or you wouldn't have posted the pic

I posted it because I am infatuated with the Don Tiki band. The music is great, and of course...the visual presentation (...Ahem!) puts them over the top.

The dancer on the guy's left is "Summer", and she danced with the Smoking Menehunes one time. Frankly, this picture does not even do her justice! While she was dancing (and I have told this story before) I watched a guy in the audience holding his heart, in obvious agony. His friend were trying to console him. I am guessing either a heart attack or a panic attack, caused by her dancing. Later, on a break, she came up and said "hi" to me and just exchanged small talk. I basically could not speak English to her, and was just making gibberish, babbling incoherently. Like Cliff Clavin on "cheers" (Please to meet me, I mean, you, duh!)

So, I really don't know how the Don Tiki musicians keep it together. Check out the video on youtube with the "singer" being serenaded by Sherry Shaoling (Another one of their vocalists). It's completely over the top!

And of course, Delmar is also the manager of the band, GWAR!
