I try to keep it simple and not discuss individual bands beyond the stuff that to me is excruciatingly, glaringly NOT Tiki. Because if they are, then here's my favorite Tiki mug:

Ya see? Tiki music just isn't whatever you think it is, because if that's true, then my mug and my restaurant are equally true. JOHN-O's original post says just that, and I took issue with it. The rest is history. :)
