Bigtikidude to go to Bay area 10-20 and 10-21

Ok so I am finally gonna take the plunge,
I'm flying in early Sat. Morning.
I wanna hit Trader Vics Emmeryville,(noonish)
and Forbidden Island(evening/night) for sure.
Sun we are going to go to the
Hotel Utah 4th and Bryant in S.F.
to see a 3 band surf show at 2 or 3 pm.
Pollo Del Mar doing a all Morricone (spaghetti western songs)set.
The Tomorrow Men, (new band kinda like Man or Astroman)
and Sacramento's Pyronauts.
hope some Nor. Cal. folks will come out to meet up with us,
but especially would be cool to see some of you tiki folks at the
surf show on Sun.

I've been itchin' to get
back up to the Bay area for awhile now.

I am flying in Sat morning,
planning on Trader Vics in Emmeryville at noonish.

then Bill of the Lava Rats said there is a great New
Zealand food place in Alameda near Forbidden Island
that has Killer Burgers, So well probably go
there at 4 ish.
Then Forbidden Island bar on Alameda from 6
pmish to 10 or 11 pm ish.

Sun. There is going to be a meet up of some of the
surf fans at a mexican food joint, at noonish,

Then the Hotel Utah show, Sun at 3pm, 4th and
Bryant, Pasta Del Mar, Pollo side project doing an
all spaghetti western set, Newer band the Tomorrow
men, and the Pyronauts from Sacramento.

then I fly out at 10 pm ish on Sun nite.
maybe be up for 1 more tiki bar on the way to the
airport, but real quick, can't miss flight.

Okay, I'm probably in for Trader Vic's! Also, that New Zealander place is just two blocks from my apartment, but have I ever been there? The answer would be "no, because I'm a loser." I have wanted to try out their meat pies though, so I might join you there as well. Looking forward to seeing you in our neck of the woods!

Can't wait to get up there, I am just bummed I dont have a whole week to see all the cool stuff/places.
time and $$ is limited.

its funny I have been to the bay area for surf shows, but until I joined TC I never knew there was so many cool places.

Doh!!

Jeff(bigtikidude)

Jeff,

Cannot remember the name of the place, but the New Zealand bar is fantastic, and their food rocks, meat pies rule, and I cannot remember the name of it but the lamb burger with egg is sweeeeetttt!!! Have a great time.

Oh and I forgot, if there still there look around there were some pretty cool Maori style carvings.

We packed in a bunch of things in 3 nights & 4 days back in March...
You can do it BTD! :)

Thanks gang,
Paul, The New Zealand place is on the schedulle for dinner right before FI.

Jeff(bigtikidude)

Thanks to the few that showed up on Sat. at the Various places.
It was a eating and drinking marathon. and I kept thinking I was going to have a heart attack, luckily that didn't happen, but if it did, I would want it to happen at FI.

Need to come back up and spend more time at all the places, and see the ones I missed.
