YAY! If Trevor can get out of work at a decent time, we'll head up for sure. We always love a Menehune's show, and he's never seen Bill Tapia perform. He might be excited about pizza too. :wink: |

Bummer boys, but it doesn't look like Trevor's going to be out of work early enough for us to make it up to the Fish Kitchen before you're wrapping up. We'll head straight to Don's, and hope to see you there so we can buy you a drink. Have a great show, and hopefully we can catch you next time. Friday's are tough. |

Does the Catalina Fish Kitchen have a bar, or is it better to get fortified at nearby Don's? I may be south of the Orange Curtain tomorrow afternoon. |

No bar. They serve beer and wine, though! Highly recommended that you come, Mr. john-Oh! Because we got Jim Tikiyaki on bongos! (and that always makes us sound 150% better!) I would get "fortified" at Don's, or even at Fiztgerald's next door. then come to the Catalina and have some Fish Tacos! |

I drink beer and wine. As much as I love Don's, I understand the importance ($$) of supporting the Host. I hope to make it on Friday since I'm not 100% sure I can be at Mariepalooza (but I did buy my ticket :)). |

Three things on my Tiki "To Do Before I Die" List:
I kept waiting for the SMs to play north of Long Beach but it looked like that wasn't gonna happen. I also missed Friday's show. :( I did however get to see them at Mariepalooza !! :) I really had high expectations and you know what, I wasn't disappointed. This wasn't an updated for the 21st-century Tiki Revival hybrid fusion band, it was old-school "good enough for 1960, good enough for 2010" classic Hapa Haole Hawaiian soul music. I wanted it purist and that's what they delivered. Two thumbs up !! Don's of course is a great venue and what you would imagine to be the perfect place to experience the band. The downside was that the happy revelry (and bad acoustics) of the Dagger Bar at times overshadowed the music. I'd really like to see the SMs play at the Royal Hawaiian Hotel's outdoor patio with only the sounds of crashing Waikiki waves and clinking cocktail glasses to be heard. That would be perfection. I will however take the Catalina Fish Kitchen as a 2nd choice. Lucas, when is the next show? Put me on the guest list. Okay, now does anyone here know how I find the Rumpus Room? :D [ Edited by: JOHN-O 2010-06-01 23:37 ] |

Well, Pat (Singer/uke) has played there, and many other classic Hawaiian places, hence the authenticity. Busters Beach House in Long Beach on one of the Sunday 4-7 pm shows is an even better place. What you get : |

Hey I had their June 6th gig on my calendar (saw it on Facebook) but they canceled it due to some other "more important" event. Flakey musicians !! ( :D ) |

Guys, I really want to thank you for your comments. It made my day! As far as Busters, we do like playing there, but this time it was my fault we are cancelling the 6-6-10 show. It's not the same without Marie, anyway! But, we will do it again, and hopefully, hopefully, Jim will sit in again!!!!! |

I got to the Mariepalooza late. Took almost three hours to get over the boarder from Mexico, longer since I didn't have my passport with me. Missed most of the bands by the time I arrived at dark but I did get some video of the Tikiyaki Orchestra at the end.
