I'd love to see some of you New England Tikiphiles (or any other tikiphiles) on July 30!!!!! Our two tiki bars (indoor and out) although not totally finished (when is a tiki bar really finished?) are ready for a party!!!!

Needless to say, we will have lots of food and booze there already, but on my meager musician salary, I thought it best to suggest everyone bring some as well!

Hi all! Wow lots happening here since my last visit to the NE thread. Bargoyle getting thrown out of DisneyQuest (how the heck does that happen? - dying to find out!), Rain picking up a sweet bug, Granite throwing a party and Pappy busy as heck (I can relate man).
Well I certainly miss the Ohana and cannot wait until we can meet up again. I so hate to miss out on your party Granite but we won't be able to make it to Nashua on the 30th 
We may be able to crash the pig roast Bargoyle. I'll check with the wahine and see what's on our list for that weekend. I know Miss would like to see the firemen (don't ask).
And yes, Tiki Room Under New Management is an abomination! I so wish they would return to the classic show.

Granite! Congrats on getting your pad fixed up. The boss says we're having a cookout that weekend either Sat. or Sun. I think that means if the weather is good Sat. I can go Sun!

Wow! Alot happening in the North-East all of a sudden. I love it!!
Granite, we already have plans for the 30th unfortunately, (bbq/reunion near boston) but we may be able to jet out early & get up to ya. Its a long shot though. (These summer weekends fill up fast dont they?)
Rain- Nice ride. I dig those new bugs. And now no excuses for missing out on gatherings!!
Speaking of which...August 5th is the next free day I've got (and just about the only one until labor day weekend!!)
Anyone up for a tiki trip someplace? Kowloon? The Huke?
Anyone? anyone? .....bueller? .... bueller? bueller?

I just checked out a potential place here in Maine, but it turns out that while they might have good drinks, they don't even serve them in mugs. The best they have is scorpion bowls. And no tiki on site at all.
We might be able to make it on the 30th.

I can't tell you how great it'd be to have some of you to our house!
My friends and family will enjoy what I've done to the place, but they won't get off on my Hawaiian record collection like you guys will, they won't quite understand the importance of my cocojoes trinkets, or my insistence that I only drink Mai-Tais from my official Trader Vic's Glasses (or, if they're dirty, my Don Ho glasses)
Again, we'd love to see some you there!

we're leaving for florida the morning of the 30th, so we won't be able to make it to nashua.
we'll be back in the NE after august 12th, so hopefully we'll see everyone before august is out.

Florida huh? Well, I guess if you can't come to the Granite Tiki Lounge, the Mai-Kai is an okay consolation prize.

Pablus, your CD will be played at my party, that's for damn sure!
If it's a real nice day, Dino wants to take his Harley, so it will be interesting to see his upright on the back of the bike!
I'll definitely post pics!

Hmm free day on August 5th eh Bargoyle. Interested in seeing WAITIKI in Cambridge MA that night? They're playing at the Lizard Lounge. I don't think the lounge is tiki but WAITIKI certainly is and I've never seen a live lounge/exotica band before - could be quite cool. I'll need to do the babysitter dance before I can commit but I'd love to check these guys out.
The Lizard's drink menu was looking pretty interesting until I stumbled upon this...
MAI TAI
Goslings's Rum, Bacardi Light, Cointreau,
Pineapple and Orange Juices, Splash of
Grenadine, rocks
Oh the horror!
Looks like I'll skip that one - though their "iced tea" sounds good:
LOUNGIN' LIZARD ICED TEA
Vodka, Tequila, Gin, Malibu Rum, Banana
Liquer, Passion Fruit Juice, and Sprite, on the rocks
Anyone interested in checking these guys out?

johnman, if it weren't in Cambridge, I'd be very tempted. I HATE going into Boston...
Looks like I'm clear to go Granite's Sunday. Who else can go????
