Sweet Hollywaiians Royal Hawaiian show CANCELLED!

Pages: 1 31 replies

I just got off the phone w/the owner of the Royal Hawaiian and he's losing his GM over the weekend as a result of shoulder surgery so he's advised me that without his GM, he can't host the Sweet Hollywaiians without it creating for more work then he & his staff can handle. Bummer...

Their show at FI last night was one of those shows that you feel really lucky to be at. Don't miss them!

Guess who will not be home on Sunday at 3PM

How about hosting them at Tiki Farm? Maybe have people make donations of $5 or more for the band- expensive flight from Japan and all. Just an idea...

BTD - You're the Concert/Gig Man....Put something together :)
I know you have tons of connections. Buster's Beach House would be a fun place to have them play??

[ Edited by: WooHooWahine 2008-10-01 19:47 ]

I got no tiki gig connections though,
those kinda bands want real money.

surf bands are lucky to get 100 bucks.

Holden seems to be the connection guy for the band.

Jeff(bigtikidude)

besides its really short notice.
thats really hard to do this close to the day.

Let me talk to jeff, sunday brunch might be too full already with all the bands, but you never know.

It's a no go, the brunch schedule is full. But I hope they find a place to play.

You can get half price tickets at the door for tonight's show at the Steve Allen Theater with the code word: Osaka. I was told by their ticket service that there's still plenty of tickets available so it shouldn't be a risk to wait until you get to the theater to purchase tickets at the reduced rate.

OMG !!!!! We got there at the beginning and stayed for all 3 sets . These guys are so talented and versitile . We even saw dueling Ukes at lightning speed. We were all completely and thoroughly impressed with the fab four from Osaka .You have to see these guys and demand they play a tiki event . WOW !!!!!!!!!!!!

[ Edited by: TIKI-RAY 2008-10-04 00:08 ]

WoooHooo! The Sweet Hollywaiians were Tiki-rrific. What a fun night! The Sweet Hollywaiians show = Fantastic Music, Fondue, & Fun Friends :)















No dice on the Sun Purple Orchid show,

Guess I should have went last night.

bummer 2 times they've been here, and missed them both.

Jeff(bigtikidude)

Sorry you missed a great show Jeff . But I gotta say , we would have missed it if you hadnt posted they were playing at the "Hip Kitty " . Thanks for your dedication .

Ray glad you saw it,

hopefully they will come back.

just goes to show you that its not all about mugs and art,
that Music is a great part of the tiki scene too.
weather its Happa Haole, Exotica, Slack key, or even surf(shock and horror)
