Aloha:

Opened for your (so far unrequited) pleasure November 22, 2003.

People Served:
TC Members = 0
Tiki Sympathizers = 12
Souless Bastards = 178

Here are some pics of my home bar. The main two rooms are not yet finished so I left those pics out. This is also the current resting place of those great stools Ken (Keigs) made for me=)

I solicited suggestions for names on this post:

After careful consideration and after a great suggestion , "Moonbase RongoRongo", from Johnny Dollar I decided on the Kahiki Moon Room for several reasons. Firstly, it is an homage to the supreme inland tiki mecca, the Kahiki. Also, I fell in love with the Hala Kahiki and used a lot of their ideas including cheesey black lighting and the wall matting. Following the space/moon theme is the 15 or so arcade video games that will be hidden from view with a couple of partitions that have yet to be finished. A lot of work ahead...

FUN FACT
Kahiki = Tahiti in Hawaiian

Tahiti is nice (I've never been but I remember black sand beaches in "Endless Summer")

Perry Ferrel's Porno for Pyros sang a song about the "Tahitian Moon".
