Aloha! My name is Tiki Mick, from the Fabulous Smokin' Menehunes, the premier pure Hapo-Haole steel band in Southern California. I was in several bands, but one of my bands is folding, so now I am finding I have too much time on my hands! I am thinking of forming an exotica/lounge band, a la Arthur Lyman, Martin Denny, Les Baxter etc...so I am looking for like-minded musicians who may be interested. Do you play bongos? Vibes? Hammond Organ? Theremin? Do you dig Mancini, Bossa Nova, voodoo??I know you are out there somewhere!. So far, I have found few people out in the non-tiki world who even have a clue what I am talking about! |

If only we weren't so far away from each other. I'm looking to form a similar type of band, but, hey, at least you're in SoCal -- I'm in Arkansas! |

Hey Mriddle! Mriddel, OC area, but I might am willing to travel to LA, or meet halfway..where are you? By the way, I play Bass (main instrument), Guitar, keyboards, drums, percussion, and own many exotic and foreign "world" instruments"....I am looking to put together a modern "space age bachelor pad exotica lounge" group... I am already in a Hawaiian Steel band, and we rock, but now I am looking for something a bit more kitschy in addition to the Hawaiian band! |

Hey Bong, Your band, "The Smokin' Meningitis", does Rock! I've seen you. You rock slowly and gently, like a hammock between two coconut trees. Love, Sabu |

Futura Girl, thanks for the info!!! Love the website, by the way! It's nice to know I am not the only one into Googie, the Jetsons and the late 50's, early 60's space age! |
