Sam's Seafood for So Cal INTERATIONAL TIKI DAY

Pages: 1 2 77 replies

Sam's Seafood is a go for International Tiki Day on Saturday August 14th, 2004.

MAXIMUM CAPACITY REACHED: Stand by for cancellations.

Bong-Pop Enterprises is proud to announce that Sam's Seafood will be the place to be for So Cal's International Tiki Day.

A night of dinner, fun and live entertainment will be included for one extremely reasonable price.

As the date approaches, more information will be provided regarding happenings in addition to the Sam's gig.

I have to have a firm headcount (sounds weird) to Sam's by August 7th.

Your reservations must be PayPal'd to Bong-Pop Enterprises by the first week in July as we need to pay Sam's by that date.

Hey Bong, this sounds weird too, but I'm going to enjoy saying it anyway:

Bong, please firm me up.

And you may firm up my wife as well.

Hang on to your hats folks -- this one is going to be bigger than last year! We've got a lot of stuff in the works for this event.

Both Velours are in!

Bamboo Ben (you going?

I'm sorry SCD, if you bring a tent too it'll just be 2 tents... (Say it out loud,realize the pun, groan...)

Bong, Please add the missus and me to the list.
I need to cancel in the last minute, but I doubt it.

My man and I will be attending.

Sign up two for me! I love Sam's it sounds like lots of fun.

Since everyone needs a mom?
Could you please put Wes(House of Tiki) Johnson and guest on the list.

What about Holden? We haven't heard much from him on this post.

Also, Bong, you'd better put Lapu and his chick on there. He likes the Sam's. My girlfriend'll be there too.

Mr Smiley is in the house!!! ZAZZZ!

Sorry, I must be drunk.

We're in! The Tikiholics (aka Linda & Chris)

Just a thought...do we need some tunes for the evening? Noticed that the folks at the Cowabunga (instrumental surf music) newsgroup http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/cowabunga/ were looking for some places to play- including Sams...sounds like a good match to me..any thoughts?

****** Maximum Capacity Reached ******

Unfortunately, Baxdog made me get the smaller room at Sam's for ITD, and the larger rooms were rented out long ago. We have subsequenlty reached capacity on a tentative list of TC'rs.

However, due to deaths, incarcerations, hospital stays, tax audits, allergic reactions to peanuts, introduction into the homeless population, a broken fake fingernail, and a host of other maladies, openings may become available.

I've started a WAITING LIST and the first names are:

Tikiholic
Mrs Tikiholic.

Is the list updated as to who is in?

I believe some careful reading and order of response needs to be redone.

My response was accidentally(?) overlooked and MrSmiley is listed twice.

Wow! Looking at the list again, it would seem weird NOT to have some of our regular local attendees there:

Iuka Grogg/Judd/WeirdUncleTiki
The Mysterious Miss Mauna Loa
CB Howlie
Cherry Capri/FuturaGirl
Sabu
TikiBelle
BigBroTiki
BigBroTiki Girlfriend
CheekyGirl
Wersmo Derinc(Dave & Rebecca)
JungleTrader
Laney
Suicide Sam
Holden & Mrs. TikiFarm
PiPhiRho

I guess they just don't log on as often as the rest of us, or happen to check this particular thread.....so they...umm...lose out? Hmmm....

Sorry SCD,

I was taken aback by your "tent" comment and neglected to see your request. All fixed up.

(The second Mr Smiley reservation was for his alter-ego Mr Frowney)

MB

Need a bigger venue?
"Tiki" Boat in Newport...ya, remember that hideous looking barge? I know one of the owners/partners and may be able to strike a deal. Holds 149...100 "comfortably" but who needs comfort. Maybe canned like sardines, we'd actually be able to place a face with a name by the end of the evening. An August night on the harbor is hard to beat.
Just a thought...and another one to add...maybe "ticket" payment should be due by June 1st (no matter what venue.) This will button down the people who will actually show and not bail out one week before the event.
Just my 2 Stones worth.
ALOHA!
And another thing...Holden responded before we did and our 2 fabulous looking farmers are not on the list???? Whhhat? But, don't knock us off for their sake :lol:

I'm about mother fucking 2 seconds from canceling the whole fucking gig. If someone else wants to organize be my fucking guest.

I'm going to decide to cancel or not on July 3rd, so start making plans...

Hang in there Bongster.
Were gonna have a great FUCKING time!

MB

Ahhhhhh, the Aloha Spirit. Makes you tingle inside, doesn't it?

Ah, I'm OK now. It's just that I've spent a considerable amount of time and a chunk of change paying to reserve Sam's.

You have to understand that many desireable venues are booked way in advance.

People need to pay attention to what's happening on the board. I'm not "Billies" mommy making sure he knows he's got a party to go to and send him packing.

Yeah, I like to just show up to a gig and have a good time, but since none are happening that way for me, I have to organize one.

The gig goes on at Sam's. I don't really care if I'm the only one sitting in there drinking, it's at Sam's.

Well, yes, I don't check this thread too often. I've been super busy with my Mom's many surgeries and up comming surgery, and litterally selling off my panties on ebay (quick they end in a few hours!!)
All ebay proceeds will go to new pool equiptment, and heater, I'm getting this week so maybe I can take those who can't get into International Tiki Day for a pool party at my pad! I just didn't think to check this forum as I wouldn't expect to be shut out of a party.

M

Where, Who, What do I need to do to reserve my 3 spots???

Bong-o-lio...
Still need a Bouncer???
MTK

MT Bruddah,

Anyone who reserved has a spot. I expect there'll be a few cancellations to go to Laney's pool party, so I'm sure there'll be some open spots as the date approaches.

Let me tell you Girlscouts about a time way back in 1981. I wanted to go to a stones concert and it was sold out! What! Sold out! I told them "hey, I didn't know it was sold out!, yeah, I figured it would sell out, yeah, I waited until the last day, but shit!".

Oddly enough, I selling some of Laney's panties on ebay also in order to maybe hire some strippers for the gig!

I hate having to miss so many events so I stopped looking at this one. Timing is everything....wait I thought attitude was everything.

Deleted because it doesn't make any sense.

Aloha


Now back to you.

[ Edited by: jungletrader on 2004-03-30 19:33 ]

I was not aware that space was so limited so if there are any cancellations please put Mrs. Monkeyman on the list.

Thanks


[ Edited by: Monkeyman on 2004-03-30 21:48 ]

This doesn't mean you can't still go to Sam's. We rented a banquet room, not the bar. I'm sure once the drinks get flowing, people will be doing a whole lot of moving around. If I didn't make the list, I'd go hit up the bar.

I guess they just don't log on as often as the rest of us, or happen to check this particular thread.....so they...umm...lose out? Hmmm....
/quote]

Well, I have been checking this thread since it first started. Of course, my gut reaction was to post, "I'll be there, sign me up, wouldn't even imagine being anywhere else!" BUT... summer tends to be a busy travel season for me so confirming so far in advance is impossible. I'm sorry to see there's a limited capacity as I'm almost certain to be able to attend(purposefully scheduling business around this date). It's a shame that just by the nature of the venue, our Hoity Toities will be scattered on this most tiki of days. It'll be a blast none the less, I'm sure. Thanks, Bong for arranging this. Please put me on a waiting list just in case.

    -Weird Unc  

p.s. How 'bout meeting up for a day at the beach before this blowout?

Bong~

Hope I didn't cause too much of a stir for you. I certainly don't want people to think that you are intentionally leaving people out. It is true that by March, especially here in Hoity Toity-land, the (now) major venues for the next 6 months that people need to watch out for is:

Tiki Oasis
The Aloha Expo
Aloha Cruz's Da Show
International Tiki Day
Hukilau

Spike/LuckyDesigns is right, the main bar at Sam's will be available too, which all of us will end up at anyway after the entertainment is done. I contemplated whether or not to bring back my weekly event "reminders" as I used to do last year. I'm not sure if many people had even cared about it or if it was just a waste of webspace here. It may or may not have helped to get people to put in their reservations early, since somebody is going to be left out.

Bong, if you need help (either with ITD or to stir up some sh*t), just ask!

Weird Unc,

I'm sure there'll be a spot for youself. And yes, we are thinking about a number of activities that weekend and it will include a beach burn (Ben's term!).

Bong, can we have a jimmy buffett effigy burn?

Die Buff-ay die!!!!!!!!!!

Hey Bong!!?? What if our "signifigant others" are on "the list" but I'm not (i.e. Cheekygirl and me)?? Will I have to sit on her lap or will I be condemmed to the far away bar land?? Just curious.

Oh! and before I forget..... if you need a drummer for any of the musical festivities, consider my help. Anything I can also do to help, consider it done.

JRtiki,

Unfortunately, Sam's said they enforce the fire code of 75 people in the room. I will put your name on the waiting list, and as history tells me, the first 5 people on the list will more than likely get in.

Hate to seem like an a-hole (well, sometimes) but the laws the law and burning to death sucks (just as Great White).

Well, I obviously missed this one...procrastinators RULE!
It would be cool if you could add me and the Mrs. to the waiting list, but even if we don't get into "the event", we'll be at the bar to celebrate anyway.

Thanks for setting this event up and doing all the organizing and everything, I know it can't be easy.

btw...was there ever mention of a "venders area" for this? Or am I thinking of something else?

Just got back from the Reef Bar @ Caliente do'in a little fixin with my main man Mr. C'Al. Got a call from Bong the other night about this post (no computer access out there)and had no idea what was going on. Anyway, got to talkin with C'Al and we came up with a solution for this dilemma. I rented the Tiki Boat on Int. Tiki Day (8/14), out of Balboa from 5:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m.. This is what we have lined up so far. There is a 1/2 hour pre party and a 1/2 hour after party. Full Hawaiian buffet. 3.00 Mai Tai's. Beer and Wine 2.00. (barf bags extra! Arrrr!!) And, APE (the band) will be playing on the boat. All this so far for 20.00 a head. The only drag is that there is a limit (for weight on the boat) so we'll have 125 spots available, instead of the full capacity of 140. Anyway, I'll have full info tomorrow and will post. (working on Tiki Farm as I write for the event mug. Also have a few other suprises in the line up and am working on a hotel down there for a group rate.) Hope this will work for everyone.

p.s. The Reef Bar is a lot better than it was last year. Wait to you see the tikis that C'Al carved. Nobody will know the work he put into it except he and I and the few mid week guests that were trippin' out on what he was doing. They face the pool and hold up the roof on the Lanai. He lives up to his name!!!
