Don Tiki has been invited to play a music festival in Berlin on July 25: http://www.hkw.de/en/programm2008/wassermusik/projekt-detail_3.php We want to plan a Euro tour around that date and need tour coordination help ASAP! Anyone/company you can recommend who books European tours/venues? Cheers~ Fluid Floyd [email protected] PS- Did anyone see Don Tiki on Anthony Bourdain: No Reservations in Hawaii episode? It repeats on the Travel Channel, also on iTunes for $1.99 http://www.dontiki.com http://myspace.com/dontiki

Question: Did he buy that shirt before or after the zombie? :D

Say, was that third mug Tiki Diablo's Forbidden Island mug? I wish I could help you with tour management suggestions, but I have been out of the country for so long...however, I might be the one who got you this gig because one of the organizers of this event is an old school friend of mine. He contacted me last year for suggestions and you of course were on the list. That is not to say though that you wouldn't have been contacted anyway, as the first live Exotica revival band you are ON the radar internationally. I really want to make it to the event, but as always cannot commit until close to it when my shooting schedule becomes more set. My friend, artist Moritz R. is the movie and music coordinator on this, too. The concert hall is this cool mid-century modern building, known colloquially as the "pregnant Oyster", by a canal, across form the national gallery -I want to be in there so badly!

FF Fluid Floyd Member Honolulu, Hawaii Joined: Nov 21, 2005 Posts: 109	FF Fluid Floyd Posted posted on Thu, Mar 13, 2008 2:30 PM A BIG mahalo to all for your good suggestions! Gator Rob, to answer your question... Anthony Bourdain showed up for our drinking segment wearing the vintage Aloha shirt, so it was BEFORE we started sucking down zombies and other rum delights. Who knows what he was drinking the night before though! Koolau, we know, we know...it's hard to find gigs here for our large troupe. We're working on a new album right now, so hopefully we'll do some concerts around that in Hawaii this fall. Sven, a HUGE mahalo to you for recommending us for the Water Music Festival! We're bringing our full troupe of 14 performers to play at the "pregnant oyster" (love the pic you posted). As you know, Moritz R. did the art and graphics for "Skinny Dip with Don Tiki" and you did the fantastic liner notes. We're trying to contact him for help with other venues and cities to play in Germany. I must have an old email. Please send privately if you have it, phone # too. The mugs used at La Mariana were by Tiki Farm as far as i know. Still pouring over Tiki Modern...epic, monumental, congrats! Virani, two tons of chocolate macadamia nut candy for you if you can hook us up in Paris! We seem to have some fans there and would so love to play France as well! 54 House of Bamboo... will follow up on your good lead and let you know if we work anything out. Last, Professah... woo hoo, Don Tiki and now Waitiki too! Meet me in Berlin and don't forget to wear your best vintage Aloha liederhosen. Cheers~ FF

Have an approximate release date yet? Someday, some way, you must play the Mai-Kai stage. That would be heavenly.

Problem is your event is June 6 - 8 and the gig in Berlin is on July 25...argh. Perhaps our troupe of 14 performers could crash at your hut for 6 weeks?!?! Cheers~ FF

And then, you could come to France for a few days, and spain, germany... before the Berlin show. That could work. Ask King Kukulele, he did that before.
