He seems genuinely excited about the idea of creating an authentic tiki experience -- he said when they first opened they filled the place with exotica music... but nobody appreciated it.

So they played exotica music for a month and they weren't busy because of the music? I seriously doubt that it was the music that prevented people from staying. Of course it's going to take a while to build a clientele! As people have said a million times here, they never gave it a chance to succeed before they changed it.
