Aug. 27th (Saturday) - I added it to my post. Should we all go and...
Suck 'em Up with Don?
Holden

H

Yes we should.

Okay, let's do it. I believe I can set us up with front and center seating for "Hawaii's Legendary Entertainer". The Coach House is an awesome little venue down the street from my pad - very intimate even from the worst seats (but the best seats rule!). Should we get a TC area of combined seats where we're all together?
Mahaloz,
Holden

H

What time is this please, cause some of us live in LA and we need to start early.

H

Very interested... we can't commit for sure right this instant, but we're likely in.

I am definitely in for Don..Comin' from Malibu though so let me know a time. Thankl you!!

Here's what the Coach House told me...
The doors open at 5:00pm

Hoku Ho (Don's daughter) goes on at 7:00pm

Don Ho goes on at approx. 8:00pm

There's a chance that they may be adding another band to the act which means that Don Ho might start playing at around 9:00pm.

Tickets are $30/each.

Holden

can trade young mexican fan palms (potted) for tickets... ?

WooHoo! Soccer Tiki and I are ready for some TINY BUBBLES IN THE WINE!!! When you call to order tickets make dinner reservations too then you get priority seating :)

It looks like we're going to be able to get a vip area at the event; front and center and likely without having to order dinner reservations (the food isn't bad, though). I'm working on Trader Vic's supplying Mai Tai Mix & Rum (quick and easy and the best "not from scratch") and I'm also trying to get a couple other very cool things lined up for the Ohana. So I'd like to recommend holding off on getting your tickets until I have all of this lined-up. Email me if you've got any questions at [email protected].

Sounds like a lot of fun, Holden. Please post when all the info is updated.

And a big mahalo for organizing this cool Don Ho / TC event.

T

The Bong is in! So fish ho's need nut imply.!)ld

Holden,

That's my Moms birthday. Can she come too? Can we all crash at your pad??

I'm working on trying to make this event a bit more TC friendly. Along with VIP seating, I've been in disussion with Trader Vic's to get Trader Vic's mai tai's in place for the night. They are, imho, the best non-scratch Mai Tai's to be found anywhere. Here's what I'm "trying" to do...

This is all tentative...
I have developed art for a 12 oz. Double Old Fashioned glass featuring a characature of Don Ho and commemorating this event with the following text: "Suck 'em Up with Don Ho Live at the Coach House, August 27, 2005". I'm making 250. I'll sell a limit of 2 per attendee that you can buy as follows...

  1. 1 Glass @ $5
  2. 2 Glasses @ $10
  3. 2 Glasses & 1 Free Mai Tai voucher for $15

A Trader Vic's Mai Tai generally goes for around $7.50 (I do not know what the Coach House will charge) so by buying 2 glasses & a drink voucher, you'll save $2.50. I need to know if this makes sense because as I've asked to vend, I've been asked to cover transportation (both band & eqpt.) and lodging for the entire band.

I think this is a pretty fair deal and I'm only going to make 250 of them for the event. I'd appreciate some feedback from the Ohana on this!

Sounds great Holden. Let me know when and where to send my money for the tickets and the 2-glasses & drink voucher.

This will be great!

Sounds Great. Certainly in my neck of the woods.

TB

Utopiandreem & I are in!

TBird.

OK: Don Ho, Fil Slash, front row seating, commemerative glasses, Mai Tais, and a chance to meet Ba on her birthday? Send me info!

Rocknrollgirl and I are SO in for this.

S

We will do are best to be there.

Bump! Holden, any new info about Tix?

M

Pearly shells....

Pearly Shells here...

Yes?
May I help you?
Mahalo & Aloha,
Shell in the Pacific

will trade blank cd's, gloss photo paper, legal sized manilla folders, 2 sets of american flyer guitar strings (fresh), 3 baby mexican fan palms (potted) and the e-mail addresses of various male and female escorts for tickets and drinks... please help!

I'm going to go ahead and get the block of 50 tickets with priority seating for Tiki Centralites. I'll work out the details on how to get the tickets this week to anybody interested - likely online at Tiki Farm but will let you know shortly. I live about 5 minutes from the Coach House and if I can work it out (I've got to get the band and their equipment to/from the show), will offer pre-event pupu's and mai-tai's at my pad, likely from 6-7pm for those who can make it and then we'll head over to the Coach House at 7pm. More info to follow soon.
Mahaloz,
Holden

Shakatiki and Kilomama are in!!!! Last time I saw Don was at the Benihana in Waikiki in '86. Makes me feel pretty old! (wonder how he feels?) SHOOTZ!!!!

Here's a photo of the art that we're laying down onto the 11 oz. Old Fashioneds for the Don Ho Show...

(The actual art on the mug will be in red print)

As mentioned earlier, we're only making 250 and they'll go for $5 each, 2 for $10 or $2 for $15 and a Trader Vic's Mai Tai drink voucher. I'll post up the Tiki Farm VIP seating tickets on the Tiki Farm website early next week ($30 per ticket; same price as at the Coach House but with preferred seating).

Mahaloz,
Holden

This is gonna be great! I will be getting back from Maui on the 26th. I can't think of a better way to keep the spirit going then with the legendary Don Ho.

Holden, thanks for putting the VIP experience together.

Unfortunately, I will be in Idyllwild on the 27th, so I will miss this one...

I will be at Humphrey's for a dinner and a concert (Big Bad Voodoo Daddy) on Friday, August 26th, though. I'll be at the Bali Hai for a cocktail around 5 pm. If anyone wants to meet me there, you can PM me or post here: http://www.tikicentral.com/viewtopic.php?topic=15907&forum=6&0

VIP seats are online at http://www.tikifarm.com and are already nearing sold-out. We've also got TVic Mai Tai's on board at the Coach House and we'll all be front & center together to watch Don talk on the phone. No pre-party at my pad (I'm booked solid the whole day) but perhaps afterwards we can all hang out at our Swank Pad?
Mahaloz,
Holden

Bought three tickets through Tiki Farm last night.
Holden, thanks again for putting this little shindig together.

So, who else will be attending?

Just got 2 now. Thanks Holden!
Aloha! :drink:

Raise a Mai Tai to me, my friends.

WooHoo! Soccer Tiki and I are ready for some Mai Tai's :)
