Well. it's been too long since posting updates here. We have done a lot in the shift from the old TI Room to Sunken Studios. Tikiskip finally came out to see it last year, but it seems he's no longer on TC.

We've refigured the bars and spaces: still have the Wreck Lounge, the main bar area is the Beneath the Reef Bar, we've built things out to add a few other things including a main recording studio, a loungey nook we call the Cove of the Black Pearl and—in the only non-Tiki area in the place, an escape from Tiki as it were—the Bern's Room, a small dessert room in the manner of the Harry Waugh Dessert Room at Bern's Steak House in Tampa, Florida, a place as inspiring as any Tiki bar anywhere.

The big things still in progress: taking out a divider wall and putting in a clam shell waterfall; reconfiguring or redesigning the star ceiling in a way to add more drama, height, and a place to hang more lamps; transforming the ceiling in the stairwell with lava rock and a porthole view out; adding a new shipwreck wall with a beam to hold mugs. Right now, those are the big projects, and we hope to make some progress there soon. It's always something!
