Everyone who wants to attend the Luau should go on Saturday (I can't make it--I gotta work and I have a previous engagement that evening). The Luau is at 6pm.

I, along with anyone who wishes to see the Smokin' Menehunes play (everyone, basically), should go on Sunday. The Menehunes are on at 2:30pm.

Everyone who wants to have an entire tiki-filled beach weekend should go both days!

P.S. Hope to see everyone there on Sunday!!! :)

Must get there early, Saturday to get the one of a kind, thingamawhat, or I will be living in eternal piranha tank forever being eaten to the bones in small little bites.
Must be there Sunday for the Smokin' something or another.
Too much information, circuits overloading, what's that funny smell, Oh it's me. Sorry Dave, I cannot do that.

Nothing limited edition, but I will be bringing out some vintage and some Tiki Farm oddities / retired.

Well which one is more exciting, since some of us work for a living and can't go both days. By exciting I mean more TC people around to mingle with???????????

Hey, I have to work part of the weekend (Saturday), too! I'm right there with ya!!!

I hope this helps: It sounds to me like a few TCers will be there both days, but I think quite a few (including myself) definitely plan to be there on Sunday cuz that's when the Smokin' Menehunes are playing. I could be completely wrong, but I'm not getting the impression that a whole lot of TCers will be going on Saturday only.

However, if there are any people in particular you want to be sure to hook up with, I would suggest checking with those people individually or asking them to post which day they're going.

P.S. TikiTony--check your PM

Well, I just got back from the Tiki Beach Festival and I was a little disappointed. Not with the vendors that were there, that was all great. But the event was too small! I hoping there would be many more attending. According to Von Tiki the event was a lot bigger last year.

WooHooWahine posted on 08/21/2005

WooHoo! Two thumbs up to all the vendors that helped make The Tiki Beach Festival Tiki-rrific!!

hiltiki posted on 08/24/2005

Well, I went on Sunday and heard the Smokin' Menehunes they sounded great. But best of all I did buy myself a fabulous VonTiki original tiki. And it looks great sitting there all graceful by my tiki hut. :)

I had a great time.The fire dancing and the whole show was very entertaining. The food was better this year.Not as many Kustom Kulture people as there was last year, but in any case, I'll do it again. It was great seeing everyone and meeting new tcrs too.Mahalo.
