June 27 & 28, Hukilau 2003 is going Tropical at the fabulous Mai Kai in Ft
Lauderdale, Florida. With an oceanfront location, the Holiday Inn Fort
Lauderdale Beach is the host hotel for this year's event. Two nights of
ultimate Tiki hijinx are planned for all who make the pilgrimage down south.

An ocean view is the backdrop for the opening night party the 27th in the
Holiday Inn's penthouse ballroom. Orlando's sensational Delusionaires and
Italy's I Bella di Wai Kiki will keep the crowd in a frenzy with their
unique tunes and stage antics. King Kukulele will also exercise our funny
bone with his energetic act.

June 28th, the Mai Kai is opening an hour early just for the Hukilau
attendees. After dinner and the magnificent Mai Kai show, King Kukulele will
entertain in the Molokai bar.

Everyone must make their own reservations at BOTH the Holiday Inn
(954-563-5961) and the 7pm dinner/show at the Mai Kai(800-262-4524). Mention
Hukilau when making reservations to receive the $79.00 room rate at the
hotel and to get group seating at the Mai Kai. Rooms are limited so reserve
early!!

Many more surprises are in store for all who attend this years Hukilau. The
official website will keep posting updates and details as they unfold, so
check often for the latest info at:

There's a strong possibility that the Chicago weekend will actually occur August 22nd-24th. Actual details of the whole affair to be published just as soon as we make them up...

Any info on how a band might submit for consideration to perform at these events?

Thanx!

If so, we all have to hold a minute of silence for the Kahiki: The farewell party was on August 26th.
I remember, because the 27th is my birthday..also, Krakatoa erupted.
