Tiki Oasis: The Good....continued
If you saw Crazy Al in a white bikini with a divers knife on his hip, you were not to drunk.
And if you saw Crazy Al embracing last years "Latin" theme, you were still doing OK.
Funnest damn moment at TO 2012!
late Saturday night we ended up at the Frankie's room after their party had ended, but members
of the Hula Girls, Untouchables,Ding Dong Devils & The Swank Bastards were still hanging so I brought up some Blood Orange Mai Tai's
and we kept on going into the wee hours of the morning, Zandora gifted Nancy with a Hula Hoop!
I don't think there was one negative incident this year, nor did I see many stupid drunks
every one did a great job of maintaining & therefore keeping the fun going for everyone.
Lots of great music this year, so much I missed some of it, but the Martini Kings & Sonny Moon just nail it.
I thought "The Lampshades" where hilarious & get better every time I see them.
For the most part it looked like everything went exceptionally smooth.
So what about the "Bad" you ask......after all look what thread you are in.
-
The Heat & Humidity really sucked, You mix it with alcohol & you have a real party killer
I think everyone did an admiral job of keeping the party going! because it was a sauna in most of the rooms
add to that I was wearing a suit or tuxedo every night.
-
No ice anywhere! really need an ice truck or something, I understand having to get 200 pounds of ice for a room party
but no ice for a cold drink anywhere in the whole hotel, I hit every ice machine in the hotel on every floor
including the secret ones, No ice man!
3.The general atmosphere of the event was lacking in one crucial way, no burlesque dancers!
I know a couple of room parties had them & the show in the ballroom, but making Tiki Oasis
"kid" friendly is making it less "Adult" friendly & is changing the overall tone of the event
Why can't adults have just one thing for themselves these days!
Also I find it extremely odd of an event that is kid friendly with all the cocktails flowing
I don't think you should have both, it really is a contradiction.
4.The food sucks at the Crown Plaza, really should get some food trucks after hours also.
5.James Teitelbaum was a jerk to me......I don't know if he was drunk or just lacks manners
I don't know him, But I was talking to some friends when he did the classic "Cock Block Maneuver"
of stepping in front of you & pushing you away from the group, not cool James, I choose not to say anything as I was
having a great time & did not want to disrespect my hosts, aren't you proud of me?
- I say or comment on all sorts of things on TC, So I am going to rub some of you the wrong way
I put myself out there & because I do I am going to get some blowback, some of you don't like me because of what I say sometimes
or don't like my sense of humor, That is all cool! after all I am making myself a target & better be able to handle it
when some body throws darts at me, it is only fair after all.
But when Sandra Dee is overheard in public at Tiki Oasis talking shit that includes Nancy (Jungle Ginger)
you are truly showing your colors Liz, You can say what ever you like about me, I have given you reason to
but Nancy has never said nor treated you in a negative manner ever!
She has only been friendly & attempted to chat with you in the past only to be snubbed by you.
Anyone who has ever met or talked to Nancy knows her to be an incredibly nice & positive person
whom never, ever says anything negative about anyone for any reason & that is the kind of person she is
my own friends ask how did I end up with such a nice girl, so leave her out of your hate trip
you are not worthy of her.....
Next up the Weird........
