I have heard a tremendous buzz about this at The Mai Kai, actually. I was just there again (Hazel told me I should start paying RENT! lol!) and I couldn't help but overhear the buzz about Tiki Torch Nights. Giddy excitement is in the air! See you then doll! ~Lenore :)

Whoohooo! Will be there with bells on. :drink: Having never made it to a Tiki Torch Night in Atlanta, what is the schedule of events for the night? Will there still be several shows? What should we do with ourselves in between? [ Edited by: I dream of tiki on 2005-04-07 16:02 ]

T tiki_kiliki Member Birmingham, AL Joined: Apr 01, 2002 Posts: 1046	T tiki_kiliki Posted posted on Tue, Apr 12, 2005 8:42 AM Hi Geoff - Looks like the Mai Kai will make a decision on allowing this event to take place on a Saturday night after seeing the turnout for this week which I expect (and hope) to be pretty high. We've got a feature blurb going into the New Times and there's been an insane buzz about the event. I hope you and Marion can make it out!

I hope the turnout is fantastic, because if it's high on a Thursday, it will be crazy on a Saturday when people from further away would be able to make it... Thanks for the update tiki_kiliki!

T-K, Marian and I would love to be there, but we are pretty busy this week and Thursday is impossible. If you move it to Saturdays in the future, I'm sure we can make a few of them. Have a great time! KG

I'm working until 5:30 today and have to be back at 7:30 am tomorrow. The drive from Orlando isn't too bad, but that would seriously eat into my Mai Kai time! Will someone drink a black magic for me?

For those of you who could not make it, you were missed. For those who came, glad you made it to participate in the success that it was. Our very own gatorJwade (Jeff) won the mystery drink, and was mighty happy with the dance. Congratulations to Tiki Kiliki for such a wonderful night. :drink:

T Tikilicious Member NYC Joined: Jun 11, 2004 Posts: 179	T Tikilicious Posted posted on Fri, Apr 15, 2005 5:20 AM Oh YES, Steve and I took a TON of photos! When I get back from my doctor's appt. I will be more than happy to post them! I love that I stayed out drinking at The Mai Kai all night, and that then we all went to the Peter Pan for breakfast at 3 am or whatever time that was, and now I get to go to my doctor's appt. and do bloodwork. WHOOOO! (I forgot about the appointment until my PDA beeped to sadly inform me this morning. lol!) Last night was SPECTACULAR!!! Congrats to our beloved Miss Tiki Kiliki! :D ~L

G gatorjwade Member Boca Raton, FL Joined: Jul 08, 2002 Posts: 49	G gatorjwade Posted posted on Fri, Apr 15, 2005 6:35 AM WOW, what a FANTASTIC night at the Mai-Kai! And, to top it off, I received my first Mystery Dance! WOW! :) (I tried, but could not make the Mystery Girl smile. ...I also was unable to keep my eyes on her hands! :) ) Also, that's one BIG drink! My sincere thanks to my friend Chris who bought several tickets and gave one to 'I Dream of Tiki' and me, and to 'I Dream of Tiki' who donated her ticket to me earlier in the evening. (I guess she figured I would enjoy the Mystery Dance more than she would.... and I think she was right!) Thank you for making this memorable moment possible! It was wonderful to see many familiar tiki faces that I've not seen since the windy Hukilau, and nice to meet many new friends. And, last but certainly not least, many THANKS to Tiki Kiliki for putting this event together! You're a fabulous hostess! We're looking forward to the next Tiki Torch Night at the Mai-Kai!.... PS - I'll get some photos posted this weekend...

Lastly, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, Tiki Killiki!!!!

J joefla70 Tiki Socialite Fort Lauderdale Joined: Jan 17, 2005 Posts: 368	J joefla70 Posted posted on Wed, Apr 20, 2005 1:29 PM Looks like I missed out on a lot of fun! Say, from the pictures it looks like you were in the banquet room that is apart from the restaurant and bar -- on the other side of the drive way. Is that where you were all night, or did you go back and forth between the banquet room and the molakai bar? I'm going to be there this Thursday night for my brother's birthday, but we'll be in the main dining room taking in dinner and the show. But hopefully after the show I'll be able to sneak away and get to meet the Florida Ohana.
T tiki_kiliki Member Birmingham, AL Joined: Apr 01, 2002 Posts: 1046	T tiki_kiliki Posted posted on Wed, Apr 20, 2005 2:09 PM You'll have to make it next time! We were actually inside the Mai Kai in the rear dining areas where you're normally seated if you don't attend the dinner show - in rooms Tahiti and Samoa. The Mai Kai was kind enough to move most of the tables and the Hollywood style booths from the area so that there was enough room for everyone. Let me know what time you're goin' to the Mai Kai on Thursday and I'll try to show up!

We will definately be there next time. Plese reconsider having it on the weekend. Thursday is perfect!!! Lots if the Tiki Ohana (being musicians & all that stuff) won't be able to attend on a Friday or Saturdayt night & that would be very sad =(. Pictures are great thanks for posting them & It looks like another great event by Kiliki! Soooo Coooollll!!!!
