It's interesting which late 50's early 60's sub-cultures complement the current Tiki Revival "life-style". Surf music, hot rods, rockabilly, burlesque all seem to apply.

What about the Beats ?? They originated about the same time that classic Tiki-style did. Let's start a "Tiki culture" sub-culture and call it the Tiki Beats. Rather than fezes we can wear berets, and have Tiki poetry/bongo recitals and perform Tiki modern dance numbers. Enough Tikiphiles have already usurped the goatee thing so we're almost there.

:D

I think if you asked Derek Yaniger, he would say the Beats definitely mix well with Tikis.
