cool, but um that's one of the Denny songs that annoys me because of that sound.
I hate mosquitoes and other bugs that land on you while outside.

and still no myspace huh?
what's up with that?

You guys are awesome!

Please say "Hi" to Abe for me. I met him and briefly talked with him at Bill Tapia's last gig at the Warner annex....

Hey Jeff,

We do have a myspace. Two in fact:

The WAITIKI 7: http://www.myspace.com/waitiki7
WAITIKI INTERNATIONAL: http://www.myspace.com/waitiki

Add us, thanks!

Randy

sorry I didn't know.
seems like the last time I asked about a myspace.
Somebody gave me the link to the website.
so I assumed there wasn't one.
thanks.

Cool Randy! Thanks for the updates.

It was so cool to hang out with Waitiki at last year's Tiki Oasis 8 in San Diego.

I remember those butter rum drinks very well...!

I for one will miss you and Waitiki this year at TO9 - I'm sure I can say that for all California tikiphiles. Maybe next year?!?

I will continue to check all the Waitiki sites and I'll be first in line when your new CD is released next month.

Cheers! Greg

Greg!! Great to hear from you. Yeah, those butter drinks were swell. We'll be out in Cali sometime before next summer, on a CD release tour promoting the new album. Look forward to seeing you and all the California tiki folks.

Can't wait for that! Miss you guys!

Show Us Your Boobams!

Lopaka Colon hosts the first installment of “Exotica Show ‘n’ Tell”, a semi-regular video podcast being produced under the auspices of our parent company, WAITIKI INTERNATIONAL LLC. In this episode, you’ll get an exclusive look at one set of the boobams used by Lopaka’s father (Augie Colon) on the original Martin Denny recordings.

Very cool!

I just read your piece on the "Recording Process" too. Fantastic!

I can't wait to hear this!

Do you think James would like to have the Arthur Lyman tape transferred unto DVD?

I offer my services with great enthusiasm.

Definitely digital, perhaps DVD. I think he's handling it himself though, locally; I can imagine he'd be queasy about sending it through the mail.

I can totally understand that!!

We updated the Waitiki 7 blog to include a pre-order purchase method for our debut CD, Adventures in Paradise. Hurry over to http://waitiki7.com if you haven't already.

Boy, I like it...

We updated the waitiki7.com website with a fully functional online store. Sorry to those of you that were having problems with the sales widget. Still accepting Pre-Orders.
