At first I thought it was that Chuck Tatum is Tiki guy. What the Hell ever happened to that A-hole?

Magic Tiki is very entertaining, love that magical little wooden dude.

Please show some respect. Chuck Tatum died on the operation table 2 years ago having surgery to enhance his his package. We still miss you Chuck.

Chuck is dead & Zed is dead.....

Sorry to be missing the Tiki Market Place at Don's on July 20th. I will be on Oahu that week. The event has become bigger than everyone's expectations. Mahalo to Soccer Tiki and Woohoo Wahine for all their hard work making it happen.

On another subject, I attended two wonderful parties this past week. One in Palm Springs and the other in Rancho Santa Fe. Hostesses and guests had so much aloha.

Mahalo and a hui hou !

Mahalo for those kind words Palika! You will be missed BUT we know you will be back! Enjoy Oahu as we once again bring the feel of the International Market Place in Waikiki to hundreds of California residents!

Unfortunatley I won't be able to make it to the Marketplace this time around. The Hula Girls are playing a street fair in Long Beach (The Party at Pine) during the day with Deadbolt and Hellbound Hayride... BUT we WILL be back in the Dagger Bar THAT night at 9:00!

Hopefully some of you might stick around for some night time fun with us as well!
Have fun at the Marketplace!!

No "S" on the end of Don The Beachcomber. I can see why you were an art teacher and not an English teacher. :D

Oh great. They probably have Soccer Tiki by the other fire exit, so they've got the two biggest guys in the place blocking both exits if we have a fire!

Also, somebody should have them turn the air conditioner on NOW, so it's cool enough by Saturday to move around without becoming a puddle of sweat.

Grog-The Tiki Gods have heard your requests and will make sure the fire exits will be clear and the air conditioning will be on full-force! And WooHooWahine will follow you around with a palm frond to fan you and keep you cool!

Thanks Chris.

If you're going to list vendors, you should put Jungle Ginger's name before ATP because she 's sweet and he's a crotchety old bastard and you don't want to scare people away.

What an all-star line up of vendors. This is gonna be fun!
