Do we have some kind of legal recourse to put an end to this and keep it from happening in the future? http://www.tikiband.com/

Besides, they are in Florida so only a few of us really need to worry about them. I think the Rockies should provide some protection for everyone else.

I missed their playlist the first time through the site..... Summer In The City Jammin' Margaritaville Kokomo Moondance Barometer Soup Jump In The Line I Shot The Sheriff Hello, It's Me Fins In The Summertime Moonlight Feels Right Island In The Sun When are they coming to my town? seriously! When are they coming. I think a cheesy cover band with a tiki sounds like a riot! And I'll sneak some real Mai Tais into the show in my multiple flasks.

No. They do have Walking On Sunshine for whatever that's worth.

If one would want to parody Tiki revival devolution, one couldn't do a better job. So bad it's good. :lol:

The Tiki Band doesn't offer up any selections off of 'Whipped Cream & Other Delights'? or 'The Partridge Family Shopping Bag'? :wink: Are these people not members of the American Federation of Musicians Local 655? What Gives?! On their behalf I'm told this swingin duo...duo a killer 'Brandy' - Melissa tears up the keys ala Jerry Lee & Tony rips the most distorted fuzz-tone outta that teardrop guitar... ...long live husband and wife acts :)

The Captian & Tennille shot is priceless, but that website definitely falls under the catagory of guilty pleasures. I wonder how "Walking on Sunshine" would sound on a Casio with "marimba" selected on the sound bank?

I don't know about an exotica version of "I Shot the Sheriff" but there is available a version on a CD called Keep It Burning -- The Hawaiian Tribute to Bob Marley, where all the songs are played by a Hawaiian combo (lap steel guitar, slack-key guitar, ukulele and vibes along with bass and percussion). I find this unusual because Hawaii sports a number of perfectly respectable reggae bands that mostly perform original compositions. I find the performance of most of the songs a bit languid for my taste. The best songs on the CD in my opinion are "One Love," Exodus" and "Jamming." It was issued by CMH Records, which also issued a bluegrass CD tribute to Marley as well, although I haven't heard that one yet.
