Today's tiki revival isn't like that at all - it's become a wide-open free-for-all where people mix all kinds of stuff in with tiki. Its as if the other genres (spy, space, western, rockabilly, monster, surf, etc.) lacked a "vehicle" for their aficionados, and here comes tiki with our cons and meetups, and they integrate themselves with the tiki revival. As long as everyone is happy, that's good. But even if we wanted to, I don't think we can fight it, because a lot of today's tiki aficionados do cross over into other genres. So who's gonna be first in line to buy one of Skip's new Star Wars-tiki luminaires or mugs?!! :wink:
