THANK YOU !

TIKIYAKI OHANA !
Just wanted to thank everyone who made it out to our show on Saturday. It was so nice to be back with the Orchestra at Don's.
To the folks that have been there with us for a while, we all really appreciate the support and friendship over the past 6 years. For the new folks who've never seen us before, and this was your first time, we hope you liked show, and welcome to the Ohana.

Marina - Thank you again for being part of our show.... your professionalism, energy, enthusiasm and willingness to do dangerous and crazy stunts and injure yourself for the sake of art and entertainment really take the show to a whole other level.

Our Announcer, Ken Caldretti - Killer job ! Thank you for all the preparation, making the show move along and bringing a nice professional edge to the whole thing. Nice suit, too....Next time, Pizza's on me, Paisan !

Kim Brandi and Deadhead Rum - Thank you for sponsoring the event, and providing us with a killer cocktail bowl prize !

RIchard Kay and his Aloha Guitar....thanx for a great set of slack key guitar...the perfect mood setter.

BAND AND CREW :
To our new Orchestra members - Bravo ! Nelson Bragg - your energy and stage presence was noted by all. The Bongo beatdowns were awesome, and it's so much fun doing those again , it's been too long.
The Professor, Brian Atkinson....not on facebook, but, your skills are top notch. We're lucky to have you.
Pablo Baza - Killer performance ! The enthusiasm is felt throughout !
Jonpaul and Brian Kassan, the originals ! Thanx for always being there and kicking ass. Simply put, you guys rule !

Dibroc, Jeff (Big Tiki Dude) Hanson, Julie, my beautifu wife CoCo and daughter Angela Liu. Thank you for making the show run smoothly, and taking care of all the stuff behind the scenes. Without you guys, the show wouldn't happen.

Don the Beachcomber - Thank you for having us back. You know we love playing there. It's the perfect room for Tikiyaki !
Mahalo, and Aloha until net time !

Jim
