The thing is, Rory put together an excellent event. I looked around as our band was playing, and people were having a great time! Smiles were abundant! The weather was perfect! I can't think of even one negative thing to say except I wished I had a room and could have made a weekend out of it.
But I heard some things that bothered me while I was there. heard the cops were called due to excess noise...and of course like everyone I assume it was the fine folks at Caliente next door that were doing that. Then I see this post from a first time poster, and it is such an obvious set-up I had to say something. I like Rory a lot. He is a great guy, who by creating an event like this is doing a LOT for the world of tiki...and I am 100% sure he tried as hard as he could to have the event at Caliente tropics...but they did not want us! Did'nt want to support the tiki community! So what next? Call the cops. Make a post suggesting staff at the travelodge were looting their own rooms. Anything to cast a shadow on the event.

Well, if I am wrong about that...I do apologize...but something makes me think I am not wrong about this. And Karma is a bitch!
