Using "Rum" as the draw, as opposed to "Tiki". Luring them in with the idea of a big ass "run party", then adding in the tiki element, with the right people entertaining. No stupid hip hop dj's and redbull drinks.... Starting out with the apropos music for the time of day, and ending up with the Intoxicators, who are RAUCOUS to bring the yougsters back to something more familiar to them....rock music. No doubt this younger generation of folks will not be like our generation of tikiphiles, because they dont have the memories of the old restaurants, so their perspective, and reason for enjoying an event like this will be different...unless they chose to dig in deep on this forum and find out all the historical info, buy the BOT and Tiki Modern and really get educated. Still, by doing a party like this the right way, it's a great primer, and a great way to get the younger folks into our fave pastime. A+ ! The Tonga Hut is getting a whole young crowd now on weekends....Hipsters who like a cool bar....so, things are looking up, I'd say
