The woman handling my reservations hasn't gotten back to me yet, so it may not have been purchased yet, I may be able to change it, but I'd have to tell her pronto -- is it Friday April 9, or Saturday April 10?

If you intend to eat dinner there, go ahead and make the reservation and then you'll be sure to get in, even if 350 people arrive before you do...

The book signing will kick off the evening at 6:00 until 8:00 and the DJ I have lined up will be playin' records until 9:00 where Tongo-hiti will hit the stage. I'm expecting a huge crowd so get there early for dinner if you can. You can email me directly if you should have any questions! Hope to see you there!

Now, let's hear it for TONGO HITI- didn't they sound GREAT (everybody, sing along now- "Tiny Bubbles...")!?! Swanky, your daughter's a sweetheart- hope she enjoyed herself at Vic's. Good Lord, did you see Joel in action? He was a constant blur. Great work Joel, hope you raked in the tips. To anyone I chatted up AFTER my last navy Grog- my humble apologies. And, please, anybody, help me find my shoes so that I can walk to the store for some aspirin...I'd say a great time was had by all at the first of Atlanta's Tiki Torch Nights.

A happily crowded bar at Trader Vic's. Our very busy bartenders. Tongo-hiti performs. Kiliki, Sven and Staci The Women of Tiki Torch Nights! The ever popular corner booth. Sven signs another book with Glampira. The gals on the right were dancing... And still dancing... It was a great success and is just going to grow. Met some new people and had a great time.

I will not miss the next one. TK, BRAVO! it looks like this was a large time. I can't wait until your feet touch the sand of The Hale Tiki again. Sven looked like he had a grand time and it must feel good to be surrounded by people that admire his work. See you all soon, BtB
B bigbrotiki Tiki Socialite Tiki Island, above the Silverlake Joined: Mar 25, 2002 Posts: 11621	B bigbrotiki Posted posted on Mon, Apr 12, 2004 1:17 AM Man, I am back in LA, with a total FAT HEAD, and it's not from the libations, but from all the positive feedback all weekend! First I am spending a great afternoon and evening at the Hale Tiki, being regaled with stories by Brad on how the BOT inspired it, and the next night the Tiki Torch revellers at Trader Vic's Atlanta fill me with more love. TWO couples even told me the BOT changed their lives! Almost a little scary, but also a very rewarding experience! I will be known as "Tiki Svengali" from now on! Southern hospitality at it's best. Thank you, Kiliki!
