I love your cocktail shots as you know and I also love Cass' ( :left: Jeez, how does that work?) drink photos and plan to get some of his as well as Vivica Menegaz's from Sippin' Safari (Sent an email over a year ago, never heard back. Grrr!) but exteriors are what we need and not just for fans of cool architecture and Tiki but for historical purposes and yes, I would buy some. Some of the cooler pictures at most of the Trader Vic's I've been to are of older locations, I think they all have that great shot of Beverly Hills when it was The Traders. As we try to figure out where the entrance to the D.C. Vic's was and enlarge postcards and artist renderings to death of The Saint Louis and Detroit Vic's or various Kona Kai entrances, if someone would have taken the time to photograph them they would be a HERO! What about the entrances to the St. Louis Mainlander or Ren Clarks Polynesian Village they may have been cool or maybe they weren't? We have no idea. Did anyone ever take an exterior picture of the Lucky Tiki? I know the exterior of the place is still pretty much the same but I don't think I've seen one with the signage while it was still a fun place. What about Emeryville? Every time I go I'm running for the door heading for the bar, yes I've taken pictures of the Barney West Tiki in the parking lot and tons of the interior but has anyone taken a shot of the front of Emeryville or even Palo Alto from a cool angle? Now that the Tikiyaki Orchestra has the "Big Bamboo" van I hope to see you on the roof of it taking pictures of cool places at angles we don't usually see. Even places with more um... subdued entrances like Smuggler's Cove need to be documented in a cool way. I know that this is more than you were looking for but I was in a typing mood and rather than try to get that all out at some loud party I thought I'd share it here for everyone because I'm a giver! :lol: :down: I took that picture. :D
