You should try to get the Hula Girls to play.

We'll be there for a last Bahooka hurrah.

UGH!! I really want to be there, but I just don't think I can pull it off!

This makes me so sad. Another institution...gone. :(
I will be there for the send off, for sure.

Sad! Sad! Sad News....So Many Good Memories at Bahookas. We will be there on March 10 for sure.

I'll do my best to be there. I'm glad I was able to have a couple of nice dinners there.

Katie and I will be there.

I'm in!

So sad to hear we are losing this unique historical landmark. I will be there.

S

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

I'm in.

How about Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday Bahooka nights until the end! :)

I will do my best to be there. Hope I can make it.

T

Manuel and I will be there!

I noticed other posts mentioning March 2nd... is there something happening then, too? (we can make that as well!)

Mahalo for reserving the back room, John-O. I will do my best to be there. I am so very sad about this loss to the L.A. Tiki scene. I love Bahooka. Love it, love it, love it.

GROG there.

Whether we play or not, I will certainly be there.

T

AAARRRGGGHHH. Another one.

It's short notice. Not sure if I can make it.

Any other activities planned around it so I can justify the trip?

Bob

I'll be there, what time is this send off supposed to start?

AceyTiki and I both wish we could be there. Know that we are in spirit. We loved each time we were able to go there.

Count me in Mr. Moto !

Can they do this in April?!?

Crap.

I'll be building Iniki all of March.

Missing all sorts of stuff. :(

Someone feed a carrot to Rufus for me!!!

Many good times at the BahOOka!!!

Mission Accepted, see ou there.

Horrible news,
I'm willing to DJ all evening, before, and between bands.

Well, It looks like I am scrambling around and will make it work.

I will probably see if anyone wants to get a Disneyland day together on Thursday. Anybody up for it?

Bob

My brother and our wives will be there.

California adventure is awesome at night. That's where all the booze are.

Update to page 1.

I understand weekend reservations for dinner are full. Do we need to do anything special to attend the TC backroom meet?

Not much, Just a small human sacrifice.....

I'm coming out from Denver for this!

I

Yep I'll be there. Do we have a head count at this point?

RR

I will be there too.

In like Flynn!

B

Heck, I never post but I better speak up before it's too late. Count me and the wife in!

Monday morning might be a bit tough after this weekend.

About 110 based on Facebook RSVPs, and at least 30 more from this thread. I expect this list to grow larger over the next 2 weeks. The capacity of the room is 110 so it will be tight if everyone shows up at once. Also I'm not sure if we'll be able to get cocktail waitress service back there, they may not have sufficient staff for the expected crowds. Everyone may need to get their own drinks at the front bar.

At least it will be a night to remember. :)

I'm there. Don't laugh but I actually teared up about this.

Just a report back from going to the Bahooka on Saturday.

1 - They are no longer doing reservations (as posted on their FB page). Calling equals a busy signal, and they've killed any ringing from the phone.
2 - Expect at least a 2+ hr wait to be seated. We arrived around 3:15, and didn't get seated until 5:15.
3 - Expect a long line at the bar.

Understandable that they are going out of business, so prepare to see booths not being filled while waiting to be seated.

Also, the length of time for waiting increased when we were leaving as people coming in were told a wait of 3hrs.

Just a bump on my last post so that people understand the reserved back room will not be providing dinner service. There probably won't be drink service either. Also if the room gets overrun with a larger than expected crowd then there may be a line to get in (just like at a Tiki Oasis Room Crawl. :D)

The Ding Dong Devils will be playing 2 sets so it may be less frustrating to come later at 9pm when most of the restaurant crowds have (hopefully) thinned out.

Add two more to the list.
