Yeah, +1 here on the music being not-tiki. Caribbean does not equal tiki (or Tiki if you prefer). Reggae is not tiki; I play reggae and calypso and would never call them tiki. I am also learning Hawaiian style steel guitar but have no intention of marketing it, if I ever do which is unlikely beyond local gigs, as tiki.

Buffet is a profiteer on the idea of tiki, but knows nothing about it; he's probably too drunk, or not drunk enough, to understand.
