I think the best way to look at it is this:

How often do you travel over the hill and go to tiki bars?

Now ask yourself how often would you travel to these bars if there was a tiki bar you loved down the street from you?

And then now ask yourself how often would you travel to the other bars if there was a BUNCH of tiki bars you loved that you could go to before you even made it over the hill?

These are the the thoughts that will be going thru a lot of SoCal tiki enthusiasts heads before they make it over the hill to Valencia.

It will be a tough sell. Back in college, I would have had a hell of a time trying to afford the drinks at Tiki-Ti. I'm sure a lot of the students at Cal-Arts would be in the same boat.

But if you can find a place with cheap enough rent and bartenders that can mix a great drink... ya never know. If you try and do it, I do wish you the best of luck. I'm sure it's a dream that most of us on here have!
