After a few of those drinks it was pretty challenging to even do that. Tikiyaki was at the top of their game as usual, when they played the Hidden Village it was a pretty magical moment. The toast by Crazy Al was classic! Good to see old friends and meet some new ones. Big mahalos to Kona for throwing out the welcome mat!

I bought one at Hukilau and it didn't make it through a single play in my Ford Granada... Insist on the real deal! Buy it on CD from http://www.tikiyakiorchestra.com/ and if you truly do have an 8-track player... just get one of those 8-track to cassette converters.... and then one of those cd to cassette converters... and a portable cd player... and you will be in business... You will truly be amazed at the sound quality too... :) Cheers! Brian The Intoxicators! [ Edited by: tikigoob 2008-07-14 19:26 ]

CD in a rental car...I went back to the lost and found at the airport about 3 times looking for it, but to no avail. I really hope someone picked it up (my Martini Kings Weekend In Palm Springs CD was with it!) and has become a Tikiyaki fan because of it. Kind of like leaving a Bible in a hotel room I guess.

Did you see that Don the beachcomber guy in the white suit sitting in the big rattan fanback chair ? He was a trip.

Yes, we were up in the bungalows stage left, Mike who owns the Picture Show Gallery in Seal Beach invited us to sit up there with his ohana so we were stoked to see everything from that vantage point, Bird calling with the birds eye view was pretty rad! And ooooh ya i saw the character in the white suit. Im pretty sure he did a costume change. He was wearing a different outfit when you were playing the dining room then changed to the white suit for the Hidden Village. He hit on my wife when she was taking a picture of the waterfall, he kissed her hand and asked her if she wanted to take a ride on his catamaran to some island she wouldnt be able to pronounce. I was definately amused. Sidenote: I spoke with one of the bartenders and Kona will be getting Primo Beer in soon, he was on the phone with the distributor that day and said it should be available soon, as well as Hinano!

Wow, sound quality is great. Nice 2 camera transitions too. Can't wait to see the rest. Mongoloid....too funny about that guy. He said something to one of the other guys about using one of our songs for a website for a new resort he is building in Thailand.... Either he is a Rich Typhoon or a really wonderful BS artist ! Mr beachcomber in the white suit, If you're out there, and are the former, please PM me !!! :) Damn, we have to figure out a way to play in that room again. Due to the cops and homeowners, it may be a bust. Gonna have to talk to the owners more. Good news about the Primo too.

You can actually hear it outside very well. Especially in the back parking lot. They never had a problem before?

WooHoo, I'm hoping we can do something in the daytime, but I'm not sure. Apparently, those neighbors must have some pull with the cops. I think a daytime gig will be a great. Maybe have some art and vending, the Smokin Menehunes or the new band (sorry, the name escapes me). Make it a cool event.

The new band we are working on would not be a good match for Kona. Definately on the louder and more aggressive side, but the Smoking Menehunes definately have the gentle, Hawaiian sound that works well at low volumes. Good opening band for the TO, IMHO! But I lay the blame for the police coming squarely at the feet of Dave "Pull my finger" Cohen, AKA Squidward. A little known fact: During the 70's he was the tour drummer for BTO, 3 dog night, April Wine and of course Hawkwind (The loudest band ever) and probably is carrying over a lot of agression from those days. Memo to Squid: It's an EXOTICA band NOT a kiss concert, you evil genius!!!!!

They used to clear all those tables out for a dj and make a dance floor pre Kona. The music would carry into the bar area too! Just a thought! The Hidden Village experience is the epitome, but if the neighbors are donkeys that might be an alternative!

Why didn't you tell me I was in Hawkwind when I was in Hawkwind? I guess I missed it. Did I enjoy it? Did I consume mass quantities of mind expanding substances with Lemmy and Bob Calvert? Was Simon House there? Were Dick Mik's oscillators in tune? Don't try to goof on the old squid with obscure Brit space rock bands. I had Space Ritual and Hall of the Mountain Grill on vinyl when they were brand spankin'new. :) And (I'm not kidding) I saw the first Hawklords tour. It sucked. But if you like Hawkwind for real, check out High Tide, Simon House's band pre-Hawkwind......F#@KING HEAVY ASS SH%T with fuzz wah violin. Think the reckless abandon of Blue Cheer but with songwriting abilities and probably better amps, oh, and TALENT! Black Sabbath sounds like little poopy-pants whiny babies compared to this stuff. The best of the 2 albums is Sea Shanty. Let me know when I've gone off topic.... And no Lucas, this is not your opening to spew forth about more obscure bands nobody cares about. I've just done that. It would be boring. :) squid president 13th floor elevators fan club
