Its a Kuku Kornucopia of Kick-Ass Kraziness. Speaking of Kraziness, C’Al may show up at 2am...he’s going to be selling out performing for “The Man” in Burbank. (You know I would never do that!) Friday May 28th, 2004 and every last Friday of the Month 10PM No Cover The Smokin’ Menehunes are here at last!! Come welcome this Rockin Hapa Haole combo in their debut musical performance at Tiki Taix! AND! Another amazing surprise from the world of Miehana’s Musical Mele! ALSO!! A very special, rare Video Tiki Tour inside the home of “The Book of Tiki” author Sven Kirsten. Lucky for us he is in Germany at this time which means we may take a look into his underwear drawer and also we may get a glimpse of his upcoming book on Witco. PLUS! A brief look at the Tiki Diablo / King Kukulele European Tour 2004. See the South London Pacific tiki bar and Berlin’s unfinished Tiki Room. AND! King Kukulele will perform as of yet un-written songs! Never heard before and never to be heard again. Improvised right before you very ears. ALSO! Iuka Grogg attempts once again the amazing live sattelite link to cousin Rod Grogg live at the Tiki Ti!! PLUS! The debut of a new monthly installment of “Mai-TaiKus”. Written and performed by Tiki Bong! Join us for this one night only night one time. We'll be at Tiki Taix 1911 Sunset Blvd. in Echo Park 90026 One block north of the lagoon.

Joined: Sep 22, 2002 Posts: 234	KK King Kukulele Posted posted on Tue, May 18, 2004 7:49 PM Heyloha Tiki Mick and Floratina and Suburban Pagan, Thanks for the vote of confidence Pagan, someday I'd like to hear it playing in your backyard, that's nice to know. I will have CDs available at Tiki Taix and hopefully by May 28th you'll really need TWO Tiki Mick. And oh yeah, the monthly installment of Mai Tai-kus is going to be innaugerated (thats a tough word to spell) by the inimitible (thats tougher) Tiki Bong! He will have help from others whenever he is stranded in OC. As we all know Trader Pup turned this very zen poetic activity into a cut throat competition at his Fabulous East Indies Room Grand Opening party in the summer of 2003 and he's quite capable of Mai Tai-kuing with the best of them....STAY TUNED!

Joined: Sep 22, 2002 Posts: 234	KK King Kukulele Posted posted on Thu, May 20, 2004 4:29 PM If anybody was wondering about the food situation at Tiki Taix, you'll have a full menu of French cuisine (trés Tahiti) from between $10 and $20 including steaks, fish, and chicken dinners. You can also get snails and frog legs and the best damn clam chowder in America! BUTT the kitchen closes at 10pm which is showtime. I suggest you arrive early and get a table in the lounge, order early and eat during the show...isn't that how they used to do it at the Don Ho show?

KK King Kukulele Member The Lemoyne Lanai in Echo Park, CA. Joined: Sep 22, 2002 Posts: 234	KK King Kukulele Posted posted on Sat, May 22, 2004 10:50 AM To whom it may concern Tikifille. This thread is to announce a show called Tiki Taix in Echo Park NOT Burbank. And if Al wants to sell out to the man at a Private Party that YOU CAN'T GO TO in Burbank thats no concern of this thread. If I had known that you had an insatiable rabid obsession for Crazy Al I would never have mentioned it. Maybe Al is just too afraid to show up to Tiki Taix. Normally I would commence making chicken noises right now but thats really hard to spell out. So anyway back to the thread, "At Tiki Taix your show is FREEEEEE!! Your Killing me Tikifille!" And you may even hear some Star Trek....but not in Burbank.

Thanks to all of you who came out to Tiki Taix IV, if you weren't able to make it then try to come out to Tiki Taix V on June 25th! The Smokin Menehunes were SMOKIN and it was great to have them at Tiki Taix. Chiki Tiki aka Tiki Diablo did a little riffing with some video of Berlin / London. We had some great 16mm films brought by Miehana, video of Sven's "Big Bro Tiki" Kirstens home. Iuka and Rodd Grogg FINALLY made it to the Tiki Ti! The Friki Tiki's created a brand new song about selling ice cream and crack cocaine at a school in Sweden...WHAT A NIGHT!! And Olivia was on TV!! Oh yeah, we also had Mai Tai Kus and magic.

You know I LOVE playing Grateful dead songs, or at least excerpts...they are such a great influence on both Bong and I! Such a soulful and groovy band!! In fact, yesterday while Bong and I were comparing our rasta-hackey-sack collection, we both agreed that the menehunes should start including both Jimmy Buffet AND Dead songs in our set! natch!! Just Kidding!

Even worse then in real life! In every picture I have ever seen of myself, I either look dead and bloated, or like I have cramps! I think our band needs a new schtick! perhaps the pods from spinal tap, or something similar! And we need the Smokin menehunes mach 2 free form jazz excursion to be more of a pay-per-view bass-less working cruise followed by a puppet show!

The Friki Tikis took a good shot at both "Big Bottom" and "Sex Farm" during their set - I think an extended rendition of "Stonehenge" or "Rock n' Roll Creation" would fit the Menehune's style nicely! (provided that all y'all would be able to get in and out of your pods sucessfully...)
