I'm personally excited about this because I've heard such amazing things about FI. We're in the process of working up a bunch of new songs for the show too, including two new ones that I've written; "Mai Kai Mystery Girl" and "The Suffering Bastard". Actually, Lucas Vigor co-wrote "The Suffering Bastard" with me too. We'll be playing three sets of about 40 mins each. Also, coming with us are Miss Judy Luck and our cover model Miss Dinah DeRosa! Dinah is also Miss December in the Forbidden Island calendar! Hope to see you all Saturday, February 19th 5:00pm - 8:00pm Who is joining us?

RD Rum Dog Grand Member (7 years) Canyon Hills, CA Joined: Dec 07, 2010 Posts: 318	RD Rum Dog Posted posted on Wed, Jan 19, 2011 7:45 AM I notice that this will be on a holiday weekend for some of us. This is giving me an incentive to make the roadtrip from So Cal. Seeing the Hula Girls and having a romantic weekend in the Bay area will make a nice Valentine's day surprise for my wife. Spike are you making an awesome poster to commemorate this performance?
L Luckydesigns Tiki Socialite Costa Mesa Joined: Sep 15, 2002 Posts: 2374	L Luckydesigns Posted posted on Wed, Jan 19, 2011 3:42 PM Yeah! Bring Sabu and the Doc!! They're couple of my favorite buddies in tiki land! And yes, Rum Dog, I am planning on screen printing posters for this show...I just need inspiration to get the art going... Thoughts, anyone?
RD Rum Dog Grand Member (7 years) Canyon Hills, CA Joined: Dec 07, 2010 Posts: 318	RD Rum Dog Posted posted on Thu, Jan 20, 2011 8:14 PM I know you like to have characteristics and personalty of the establishment represented in your art work. Hopefully some of the Forbidden Island regulars on TC will put in their thoughts of what would best reflect this iconic Tiki Lounge. Looking at the photos of the FI web site, their Facebook page, and TC archives I notice they have a "signature tiki" that you usually like represented on your posters. My suggestion is to have the tiki sitting in the big whicker Dr. Fu Manchu type chair that I saw in several pictures under some cool tiki lamps. Hopefully this will start the ball rolling on some others (who have actually been to Forbidden Island) to give some better input. Here are a couple of links to the pictures I found for Forbidden Island for my suggestion. http://www.tikicentral.com/viewtopic.php?topic=32172&forum=17 http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=1041220753045&set=t.66526350002

J JOHN-O Tiki Socialite Dogtown, USA Joined: May 16, 2008 Posts: 2721	J JOHN-O Posted posted on Mon, Jan 24, 2011 3:55 PM Man, Beach Bum Scott, I think you should just move back to California. Are any out-of-towners going to Smuggler's Cove afterward or is the plan to close down FI ?? Decisions, decisions (but a good Tiki problem to have). :) UPDATE - Actually now that I think about it, since Molokai Mike is hosting such a great show, I will be spending all of my weekend Tiki dollars at FI.

It's GREAT that you're coming out from Denver, Scott! And as always, I'm stoked to have you hanging out, John-O! I feel like if you're at the bar by 5:00, you should be good to get a poster... But don't quote me on that though. Regardless, I'm gonna print a bunch and they're really very inexpensive, for hand printed art.

Hotel of choice for Tiki Crawl. http://www.oaklandhs.com/ (510) 522-1000 A nicer hotel experience, if you want to make a weekend of it, and a little more spendy (I think) would be: Coral Reef Inn & Suites http://www.coralreefinn.com - (510) 545-4139 Marina Village Inn http://www.marinavillageinn.com - (510) 523-9450 Way looking forward to it!

The show is totally first come-first serve, to get in. I know that Forbidden Island is a pretty small joint, so get there early if you want to guarantee that you'll get in. I'd be bummed if some of you, who are coming from long distances, can't end up getting in! One week till the show!

I spent all day today, in the garage, printing up the posters. I think they came out great! I mixed that skin tone out of red, white, and gold speedball ink... If you look closely (in person) there's some metallic shimmer to the wahine, due to the gold ink! Bonus! Remember that the first 5 people in the door, at show time, will receive a free poster! Doors are at 5:00, music starts at 5:30 See ya next week, northern California!
