Hats off to Jim and the whole Tikiaki Orchestra. These guys kicked it at the Hukilau. Jim also gets an A+ for marketing and packaging on the CD. A drink umbrella in the spine and a "place mai tai here" coaster inside. Brilliant! Tiki Bill. |

Jeff, Their Saturday performance at The Mai Kai was equally as good but in more intimate quieter surroundings... They had 2 less orchestra members for that show though since the performance space was pretty much a 10 foot by 10 foot square in the center of a room... As for the Tiki Bill cd... I have a two song demo that Bill passed my way at Hukilau, and I can't wait to hear more... Cheers! |

Goob.... Check my location in my profile on here.... You Rule Bro....So, when are the Intoxicators doing Detroit Rock City ? BTD....Don't know if you've been fortunate enough to hear the Intoxicators but, being the surf geek that you are, you will have a Cow...they are amazing. You should have been at Huki to see them, but, you already know that :) |

Too funny... Exotica Rock City... Don't know when we're gonna work up Detroit Rock City... Hopefully soon... all of our gear is piled up in our rehersal studio at the moment... haven't touched it since Hukilau... Hey, a re-work of the Kiss tune Beth would make a killer exotica number come to think of it... Hell... I'll buy just about any cheesy tribute album... My all time low was when I purchased "Strummin' With The Devil - A Bluegrass Tribute to Van Halen (featuring David Lee Roth)" Oh well... I decree nothing but KISS on 8-Track at work tomorrow... and the Tikiyaki Orchestra 8-Track too... once my player breaks a splice amd eats through about half of the Destroyer album... remember those days.... :) Cheers! |

We actually have a cheezy lounge version of "Close to You" by the Carpenters in the works...It's really funny. Brian, I didn't think you were old enough to have listened to KISS on 8 track ! I always had LP's and cassettes...never 8 tracks. KISS rules. |

I'd love to get a classic old Gretsch, but I'd probably have to sell one of my american Strats to afford it...CANT do THAT! What model and year is yours? I was about to pickup one of those new Chinese ones (G5120) with the Bigsby on it, but then I'll just be wishing I got an American. Also needing a Jazzmaster! Hmmmm jazzmaster next, or Gretsch. Here's a video I just threw together, recorded on my mac. I'm not even done doing the final tracks, but I got so excited, I went ahead and did the video!... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6l_bUFQ56eA |

Hee Hee....It's a Korean Made Electromatic I bought this year...retail price $599. I refuse to spend more than $1000 on a guitar. The guitar player from the Intoxicators tried it and wants to get one now. Cool video. Can I make a request ? More reverb on the drums ! :) |

Just some silliness to share. Good friend and #1 session guitar man Jerry Outlaw and I had just finished up another boooooooring "country" session (for a TV show I supply music). After a bit of post job libations, we felt strangely compelled to write a "surf tune". After a single take of drums and guitar, and a few overdubs, we had this in about a half an hour. http://www.mindshaftmusic.com/exotica_project.htm It's called "Over The Falls" and played "under the influence", but not too bad. Enjoy, Tiki Bill. [ Edited by: Tiki Bill 2008-06-27 07:36 ] |

Wicked cool Tiki B! Hard drivin'. Do I detect some strats in there? I'd like to hear some double hits on the snare there though, but that's just me, being a drummer. JIM! No WAY! That's great, I'm gettin one too. Did you use that Gretsch for the recording on your CD?? |

DUUUUUDE !!!! Intoxicators in KISS makeup doing ALL KISS songs...an entire SET ! Remember, the "Gene" has to wear clogs ! And, nevermind the Iceman...Go for the Gibson Firebird that Paul Stanley was playing on the cover of ALIVE.... "KISS plays Gibson guitars and Pearl drums because they want the best" |

Surfintiki asked: Well Surfintiki, this is my home studio where we recorded the surf tune.
It can get kind of cramped once and a while, but the AC works GREAT! Got some great mics and vintage gear in the collection as well. Tiki Bill. |
