That place sounds REALLY cool!!!! The playboy article is called "exotica in exubria" The site is a blog site from the son of the architect don erickson who built the house. There are a few pictures in google images that may be the "house of many waterfalls", but the webhosting for the site keeps popping up before the images do when you click on them. maybe someone forgot to pay their bill? Great thread! PS - the address is on the website...it's been redone on the inside, but who's going to go a 'knocking and take new pics!?!?! PPS...nevermind just read that it may have burned down in 2000. BUMMER! BUT one of the members of the band commented on the blog post and said he had pictures of the interior...I wonder if he'll post them???
