Aloha Tiki Tribe!
Happy ALOHA FRIDAY!
Have you seen This woman?
She works at the "RED TIKI LOUNGE"…or does she?
Maybe she's the Dragon Lady who runs the Criminal Underworld in post WWII Honolulu?
Or is she a Japanese Spy?
But she could be an American/Japanese double agent?
Well, then there's a chance she's just a pawn in a game of life & death played by powerful Primitive Gods that have the Hawaiian Islands as their playing board. Well, That's the story, I guess…
Something about…
The end of World War II. A million Navy boys are drinking their last Mai-Tais at the RED TIKI LOUNGE and shipping home, while many-a island resident is seeking to relieve them of their US green-backs before they go. But, the wars changed everything. Terrible weapons have been loosed upon the world and shaken the pillars of Heaven and even drawn the attention of the Tiki Gods.
America doesn't know what to do with it's citizens of Japanese ancestry. Bets have been made. People are seeing strange things like spirits. Tricks and Traps have be put in motion…. and an ancient, evil force of great destruction is waiting to seize this moment to rise up … to mastery of the Earth!
The the owner of the RED TIKI LOUNGE is in trouble cause this guy who goes by the name "Don the Beachcomber" likes his joint and wants to open one just like it, or maybe nicer, right across the street! Just when he needs all the luck he can get.... his lucky RED TIKI suddenly Disappears!
Good thing an ex-Navy Commander lives above the bar in a flea-trap apartment that doubles as his detective agency. If he can help find the RED TIKI, and get the 600-pound-plus idol back in it's proper place in front of his Tiki-Bar… maybe the owner will forget about the commander's bar-tab (which is the size of Diamond Head.)
Of course, ya' know, that Japanese woman might be a character in a novel written by my friend S.P. Grogan. That Novel is a hard cover, 200 page-or so book that has a whole lot of black & White and full Color Tiki-Art in it made by a crazy street-person named Tiki Shark. This artist sells his weird-o paintings out front of the RED TIKI LOUNGE on busy nights to the folks waiting in line to get in and dance to the music of this new piano player named Denny.
Well… that's the story, anyway.
You can find out if any of that really IS the story... in MARCH, when...
"Atomic Dreams in the RED TIKI LOUNGE" is released for sale!
MARCH 6th & 7th we're having a big party here in Kailua-Kona...at the Royal Kona Resort…
…and at the Kona Oceanfront Gallery.
...with Live Music, & guest musicians maybe…
Dancing and drinking (& Don's Mai-Tai Bar is gonna' have a new drink called "The Atomic Zombie"!)
I hear the local radio station (LAVA 105.3 FM) might broad cast from the event.
It's rumored even Billy Kenoi, the Mayor of the Big Island, may drop by,
...along with a few other Big Island ( or So Cal.) V.I.P.s…
If you are HERE, you might even get your HARD COVER, 1st edition copy AUTOGRAPHED by S.P. Grogan and Brad "Tiki-Shark" Parker!
WELL, ...that's the story I hear…
anyways…
Stay tuned for more info as we get closer… ALOHA!
