Yeah - you and me both... :(

Dr.Z ~ You missed some WooHoo's at The LB Tiki Beach Festival last weekend. Soccer Tiki has a Good Story to tell you about a place he discovered in Port Angeles, Washington. Hope to see you at this event. :)

Can tickets be purchased the day of the event??

I have, but there is the distinct possiblity of it being sold out.

Is anyone planning on attending this event?? Looks like it is going to be another tiki-rrific weekend, with all kinds of tiki things going on. Woo Hoo :)

I'll be in the house on Saturday.

Please find me.

Yes, please consider going to this fine cultural event filled with Hawaiian arts & crafts, foods, workshops, and of course, hula and chant competition. It is a spectacular, annual gathering of the best halaus (hula schools) in California and takes place this labor day weekend, Aug. 29-31. For more info, please visit Na Mamo.org or the Long Beach Performing Arts Center. Thanks for your support in perpetuating the Hawaiian culture and God bless.

The wife and i went last year and the performances are unreal. The keikis are awesome and Robi Kahakalau (one of my favorite Hawaiian musicians) and Sean Na'auao performed and definately transported us back to the islands. The competion is intense and the crowd really gets behind the performers with hoots and hollers. I had some of the best shave ice in my life there also, maybe mo bettah then Matsumoto im not sure what it was but to this day i still talk about that "experience". The vendors are mostly Kamaaina so as far as tiki goes its pretty minimal, but they have choke Hawaiian local style crafts, clothing etc... If you want a taste of real Hawaii close to home go check out E Hula Mau which i gaurantee will give you small kine chickenskin!

Okole maluna!
