hanging out at Tiki Caliente

Good drinks, good music, good food, great times!

However - Who was that idiot in the pool who kept spraying people with pool water? He was using a squirt gun and pretty much hitting everyone...ruined some drinks, a couple burgers, ... just overall annoying.... wish he would have stayed home.

Here is a vid I shot of "The Hula Girls" performing Pineapple Princess at Tiki Caliente II:

More To Come Soon, Muhahahahha! Past Shenanigans: http://www.youtube.com/user/chrisandsarahb

Nice editing! Not bad for one of our "novelty" songs! I hope you have more!

I had a pretty good time. God damn hot, though! I left before we had even finished our last note....got home in record time, about 1:20 hours, and as soon as I got home....ahhhhh! Fog! 62 degrees! Felt like I was in heaven!

But, it was a great event! Rory Wildsville always throws down!

And I got to finally meet "Tuna Tiki!"!

And, seeing the coconut sisters dancing to our music always makes me happy! Roxanne, you rock!

For the rest of youse that hung out there for the duration! All I can say is, you are brave!

I got a little worried during our sets when I was sweating a lot, and all of a sudden stopped sweating. That's one of the first signs of heatstroke, and why I was sitting by myself in the reef bar the whole time we were not playing, drinking water!

If this event get's moved back a couple a months next year, I think it would be great! May is truly about the last habitable month in Palm Springs. After that, it goes downhill fast!

Just got home from swimming in the pool almost all day. Sad it's over, but am excited about next year.

Wow what can I say that Kirby already said!! We had a great time. Definitely one of the best Tikiyaki shows yet. Each time is just as exciting as that first New Years Eve show I saw them at Kona. You guys are Awesome!! Crazy Al your dance moves were impressive too.

Tiki Caliente 2 was our first official "Tiki weekend away" my husband really enjoyed it. Of course it was a bit hot! Maybe next time slightly earlier in the year?....Rory you were an excellent host! I was very impressed with your ever-available presence the event was so well organized plenty of food and drink and top notch entertainment, it didn't leave us wanting for anything. (Well maybe shade) LOL.

CheekyGirl! I was so happy to finally meet you! Your room crawl was my first and may I compliment you again on your cocktail "The Cheeky Noir". It was fabulous. My husband loved it too! Polly I was so glad I got to spend time with you and Tyler.

The property is so well laid out we were able to see and hear most of the festivities from our room too!

Looking forward to next year Rory.

I never wish to see Grog "doing" SoccerTiki....

Is the "bottom" of the picture cut off?

Just wanted to thank Rory for having us play on Friday! What an amazing event. I don't plan on missing another one of these. It was just like the old days of Tiki Oasis. Super fun!

Slacktone in the pool on Sunday was unreal. Tikiyaki was super amazing too! ...and the Martini Kings, and The Eliminators. Everyone helped to provide the perfect soundtrack to a weekend in Palm Springs.

Good to see so many old friends too. Thanks to Doc for letting me crash on Sat night.

I still have about 15 posters left. If anyone wants one, email me at [email protected] and I can invoice you through Paypal and mail it right out in a shipping tube.

Already looking forward to next year!

FUN IN THE SUN! Rory, you are the Wildest in Wildsville. Thank you for putting on such a stellar weekend. It was well-organized, with good food, drinks, music and just relaxed pool-party type fun. The mug by Doug is gorgeous. What a great souvenir from an excellent event.

Hey vendors, I think fans with misters are in order for your booths next year! I felt for all of you!

Okay, Tiki Season has officially started thanks to Rory and his Caliente. DIG???
Looking forward to more aloha-ing with all of you.

Mahalo! Mahalo! Mahalo to Wildsvilleman for Hosting ANOTHER Incredible Weekend. We can't wait until Tiki Caliente III...WooHooo! :)

We had a great time!
Many Mahalos to all, especially Rory.
Ditto on all the praises,
the bands were fantastic,
I can't image a more perfect location to see & hear
Tikiyaki Orchestra, well maybe Hawaii.
The Art & vendors were great (spent way to much $)
the room crawls,the drinks and especially the wonderful hosts
and the Ohana,the greatest,warmest most wonderful people.
Trulely, "Tiki" is the best stuff on earth.
Thanks again to all....

Patricia & David

now if I figure out how to post pictures they should appear here....?

Hope it works this time!!!!!!!!!
Patricia
