Hawaiian Inn - A real treasure - Other Events

A real honor for Angela and I to meet the folks of Tiki Central; except for Flounder, a horrible fellow... but a heck of a hula dancer. Cybertiki and Joelle provided over 200 CDs to choose from and all I wanted was a freakin' Smokin' Menehunes CD. The Don Tiki was very cool, though. The female company we enjoyed was elegant and beautiful. When Tiki Bree started dancing the Hula near the bar in the back - I thought the older dude from "The Godfather" movie was gonna drop over dead. He was writing her notes and generally biting his hand. Pure freaking torture. Tristan ended up on stage with the skirt and the coconuts doing the Hukilau with the dancers. Torturous as well, but in a different way. The delicate Humhumu was radiant and regaled us with some of her many Tiki adventures of late. How cool it was to have a West Coast Tiki Icon joining us. Maikainagirl was a pretty surprise! There were also some friends along, and some lurkers, along with members JTD - tweedtone and his lovely one and a few other friends of TC. Geoff and Marian: A very gracious couple and definitely the kind of people you want at a party. Geoff brought the Tiki from the BOT he has - it is a great piece of art. Thanks again Geoff for the inside info on this East Coast Treasure. I'll be heading back sometime within the next few months. The show was very enchanting. Different from the MaiKai but mostly by atmosphere I think. The Hawaiian Inn is certainly more "loungy" but very well appointed and a blast to be at. The volcano was a slice of cheese not to be missed. I regret not having my picture made next to it but I headed back to the room to mix up a batch of painkillers for post-show. My beautiful wife had a good time as well, and looks forward to the Hukilau, when you all will see why I call her the Amber Love Goddess. The girl goes native in the summer. The Inn itself could use a bit of sprucing up... but hey - so could I. The only complaint I have is that I was left to finish the fresh batch of Beachbum's Own alone at just after midnite. I hit the ocean alone at about 12:45. I just kept waiting for someone else to show back up for their medicine but eventually caved in at about 1:30am. Cyber and I were sipping a delicious shot of Velvet Falernum at 9:00am on Sunday morning. A VERY special thanks to Humuhumu for delivering a couple of bottles of that delicious elixer. Cyber brought me some Absente (with the wormwood extract) and KGeoff gave me a vintage Hawaiian Inn swizzler. It was a warm vibe that carries over today into the workweek and I'm glad to have found this website and met so many of you terrific people. Except for Flounder ...who I fear. I look forward to hosting many of you at The Lagoon Lounge (™AlnShellyProductions) in the near future. Except for Flounder ...who I fear.

What a great night.
