you've just helped fill in a HUGE Chris Isaak missing link for me. Neato! Thanks! I'd love to hear any of his or Kenny's reminiscences...

Really? 2005? Seriously? This post was only 6 years ago? My original comment was Lost in the change from Fake Web name to Real name. Seems like just Yesterday though. I think the gist of it was that, those guys are old friends, (I saw their first show at the ON-Broadway in SF and often at Nightbreak Rock and Sushi Sundays on Haight in the day. Oh and and the Silvertone release party where they played on the raft at the Tonga Room) and I'd ask the "PRIDE OF STOCKTON" about the Islander at my first possible opportunity. This is my chance. This thread has grown since then and seeing how "Tiki Stolen at Minnie's" is a hot topic, thought I'd bump this up.

Tomorrow (2011) in Honolulu, I have been invited to see the Chris Isaak Show at the Arena by the guys. I will be bringing signed copies of my book, Waikiki Tiki: Art, History and Photographs for Chris and Kenny Dale. I will certaintly quiz "The PRIDE OF STOCKTON CALIFORNIA" on the Islander. Stay tuned for updates.

BTW, any one see Chris on AMC subbing for their usual host last month? He did a great job!

best,

Phillip
