Man, Tiki Oasis just keeps getting better every year.
I have to admit, I was a little skeptical about the Tijuana theme when it was first announced. I definitely get the exotica tie in and I�m a fan of Sergio Mendes and Herb Alpert, but as a theme to an entire Oasis event? I wasn�t sure that would fly too well. And while I did definitely have moments where I felt like I was waiting for a table at Casa de Reyes in Old Town San Diego, I ended up loving the theme. I agree with Tangaroa-Ru � it gives us a new way to have fun with Tiki. I know a lot of purists would argue, but there�s nothing wrong with keeping things fresh from year to year.

Remember this is an 'old way' of having fun with tiki....
Tiki News(now Tiki Oasis), as i see it, was always an 'Exotica rooted' Zine and Otto got a bit caught up in the whole BOT thing for a while.... I'm Glad to see the 'Caribbean conga players, Voodoo Dancers, and Shrunken Heads" of the old Tiki News fliers Back! (taken from Exotica album art) and yes Tiki News had that 'Herb' night in San Fran back in the 90s.....
Learn it ! Know it! Live IT!
