THat's what we do at rehearsals whenever I write another tune in WAITIKI. haha - by the way, one way we're tackling the shortage of cool tiki places is by making our own experience. In november, waitiki may do a special event with beachbum berry; we've got a restaurant who has agreed to let the Bum come up and bartend (lead the staff) in making several of his classic tiki tropicals along with WAITIKI. When you can't go out for the right drink, just bring it to you! More on this in future WAITIKI newsletters. Okonkuluku, Mr. Ho Well Put. I have plans to do the same thing here with the Tikiyaki Orchestra on the West Coast. The great thing about this Tiki microcosm is that it's an art community...That means music, artists, tiki carvers, mixologists, writers.....All different food groups of the arts which can all co-exist under one roof, making the sum bigger than the separate parts. Put together bands, artists, carvers and you have an EVENT. That's way more fun than just having a "gig" somewhere. As for TV....after they cheezed out on the Beverly Hills location, it became obvious where they were at. Look out, Don The beachcomber is on the move, and if they make their franchises anything like the one in KONA, we will ALL be a bunch of happy Tikis.
