Aloooooha! I've just finalized my plans for my trip to the Northeast in January. I'll be coming back over the Martin Luther King Jr. Holiday weekend to New York, January 18-21. I'm looking forward to meeting up with the "usual suspects" (and maybe some others) in NY/NJ. I'll be in The City from Sunday through Wednesday, so I hope the Fishermen will be playing their usual gig at Otto's on that Monday. Look forward to seeing you all again. Aloha, STEN :wink: [ Edited by: stentiki on 2004-01-05 14:28 ] [ Edited by: stentiki on 2004-01-08 17:33 ] |

if things aren't too hectic here at the homestead, you're welcome to come down (we're about a 45 min drive south of nyc). also, i'll probably be able to slip up to the city for drinks. i still haven't seen the fisherman play, so maybe we can meet up for that. |

Tiki Chris, Perhaps you guys can find out if the Fishermen are playing that Monday at Otto's or we can make our way to another Tiki establishment. Either way, I should be finished with work by about 8:00 pm. Unfortunately, I won't have a car. Do the trains run out your way? Perhaps Inky, Manic, and Shalom Aloha wanna carpool to Jersey again? Aloha, Tikigreg! Not coming to CT this time but perhaps we can pursuade you and your lovely wife to meet us at Ottos?!? Lemmie know! Aloha, STEN :wink: [ Edited by: stentiki on 2003-12-02 21:16 ] |

Thanks Steve. I'm game for meeting up at Otto's to see Fisherman. STEN et al - Check back w/ me later about coming down. The Missus & I can't get too wild on 'school nights.' But if things aren't too hectic, we'd love to have you & other TCers over for something light. We live a couple of miles from a train station & would be glad to pick anybody up. The ride from NYC takes about an hour & 15 minutes & costs about $15 round trip. [ Edited by: Tiki Chris on 2003-12-03 10:56 ] |

You should try to swing across the Jersey border and visit Chan's Dragon Inn in Ridgefield. My personal favorite tiki land. -g- |

Hey Sten, Things won’t be as hectic during the time you’re here as I had previously thought. In fact, Sunday won’t be a “school night” for us at all b/c Monday’s MLK Day. If you would like to visit one night while you’re in the area, Em & I would love to have you over for a home cooked meal & some drinks. However, I’d still like to see the Fisherman on Monday night. Sunday’s ideal but Tuesday or Wednesday are doable. Let me know if you still want to come & what evening is best for you. This invitation is extended to any/all TCers that may be able to come but PLEASE RSVP! Later, |

Mahalo, Tiki Chris and Emi for your hospitality! I may have interviews scheduled until 8:00 pm in the city on Sunday night, so that may be a little late. I'll double check my schedule and let you know for sure. I'd love to see your new Tiki Pad. I'll try to talk Inky and Manic into going out there if they're up to it. If Sunday doesn't work out then perhaps Tuesday (I'll be done by 6:00 pm). |

Hey Chris, I just checked my schedule for Sunday night and I am booked solid into the evening. Perhaps Tuesday would be better. I could probably catch the train and be out there by 8:00 pm (perhaps earlier if I don't have scheduled interviews). I know it's a school night, but I'll be leaving on the first plane back to The OC the next day, so nuthin too wild. I'll keep you posted. Monday night at Otto's for sure on January 19, 2004. It will be a great way to celebrate Rapa Nui Year! |

The InkPad will be open from 7pm-til Otto's. Fisherman doesnt start til 10ish so that gives us plenty of time for meow-tais and pupu's. Who else will be joining? If you need info, email me a personal message. |

INKY - I'm pretty sure that I'll be up for a venture to the Ink Pad pre-Otto's. Let me check w/ the Missus & she what she's got cookin'. I'll get back to you by the end of the week. STEN - Tuesday will be fine. I'll get back to you about times, etc. ANYBODY ELSE - Any other TCers are certainly welcome on Tuesday (the 20th). Just please let us know a few days in advance so we'll be ready for you! Looking forward to the fun ahead, |

Yo Inky! I'll be there. Just remember to stay off your laptop so I can call you when your doorman doesn't let me in! :wink: Rev - I'm still here, man. This past weekend we were at drinking mimosas on the patio at The Longboard. I'm won't be freezin' till Thursday in Beantown. Hey Rollingstone & Tdrummer, you gotta check out the Fishermen at Otto's on Monday if you can. We would be "pleased to meet you." Chris - I'm in for Tuesday. Anyone else wanna "brown bag" it on the NJ Transit with me?!? Manic - Always wanted to try to a Turkish bath but I chickened out in Istanbul. I might be up for that. What time you goin? This is gonna be fun! |

South Jersey? Don't get Uncle Arty lost! Anyway, as far as what to bring ... For starters we'll have Kahiki brand pu-pus & pleny o' other snacky things. As for the main course, you kids are in luck b/c Tiki Emi is going to make her very yummy shoyu chicken! Depending upon what's fresh & available, we may also have poisson cru (a new one Emi's itchin' to create) or salmon lomi (one of her best dishes)! We'll cook rice or some sort of starchy staple too. The main course will be followed by a light salad. For dessert we're planning to have haupia & probably fresh fruit. So, I think we're set w/ the food. However, if there's anything you can think of to compliment the above, feel free to bring it along. Or, if you're not a fan of haupia, you're welcome to bring another dessert. As far as drinky-drinks go, I'll mix a few mai tais. Also, we'll have plenty of wine & digestives. But I'd never discourage anyone from bringing more booze! See you soon! Aloha, |

Tiki Chris & Emi, Wow! Sounds like one hell of a party!!! Your hospitality is beyond the beyonds! Manic, glad to hear you'll be riding the rails with me. Hope others will join as well. I leave for Boston tomorrow. Just checked the temperature..."4 degrees, but it feels like -15!" That's what it said!!! Yikes! But it looks like it will be in the 20's by the time I get to New York. Shorts weather! :wink: |

Aloooha! I'm back in sunny So Cal but just wanted to let you know what a great time I had with the NY/NJ crew! Inky - As always, your potent potions are very tasty and take me to the land of exotica! Manic and I thought up a name for your new drink when we were on the train --"Russell's Banana." Thanks again for hosting us at the Ink Pad. Your Aloha spirit is legendary. Tiki Chris - Many mahalos for your hospitality last night. Your chicken rocks! And you have a beautiful and very cool Tiki/Brady home. Thanks for the mai tais and the memories. It was great seeing Emi too. I hope we can spend more time with you all next time. Manic Cat - You are a BAD KITTY, teasing the west coast TCer's like that! You crazy! It was fun riding the rails with you. Thanks for hangin with your favorite Uncle. :wink: Otto's Shrunken Head - And of course, the Fishermen were awesome on Monday night at Otto's. Steve has added many recent improvements and that place just keeps getting better and better. Good talking with you Steve! Always a good time! Also good chatting with members of the Fishermen. Can't wait to see you here in Cali. Here are a few pix for your Tiki scrap book. Close up of Crazy Al's Tiki. Steve from Otto's rigged his speakers in them. Until next time... |
