Man, how about that sumo wrestler? I'd say he stole the show, until the belly dancers sashayed out. Unbelievable.

Man did I get Boston Sidecar'd last night. My head is still banging. Great suggestion on the drink Bargoyle.
Well I'm glad we all got home safely. What a show! WAITIKI just never disappoints. I was able to get one listen to the CD on the way home and loved it. Another great work from the guys from Okonkuluku.
Back to telecommuting

Thanks to all who made the trek, whose sleep patterns took the hit for the team, who braved the maze of Boston traffic to get to Jamaica Plain for the celebration of the release of our new brainchild. It really REALLY would've sucked without you!

I had a blast but you're right about the traffic. I was UTTERLY lost going home. I just drove and drove and drove... Then,(I swear this is true) I finally saw one landmark I knew--the Tahiti in DEDHAM!
Tim, I love the new album. Everybody should buy it.

Nice ratio of belly dancers/sumo guy/drunks. Just what you want to see!

I eat at the Makaha every week. There's something about mediocre Chinese food that I love....
But there's not a lot of Tiki there. And with our luck Waitiki would play on some day that Makaha lost it's liquor license for the Nth time.
Don't get me wrong - I like Makaha and eat there every week. But they don't strike me as a place for Waitiki. (Though I've never been there at night, only for lunch.)
I'd rather see Waitiki at New Tiki - at least they have a stage, and they're trying.

Hey Mr Ho,
almost any tiki bar is worth an excursion. This one may be a bit of a disapointment after places like the Mai Kai & the Kowloon, but its something (and thats better than nothing).
As far as playing there, I'm with Scottes.
What we need is a way to get the 80's band off the stage at the Kowloon...have you guys play on the boat....

The Makaha is as tiki as Wendy's. Not to take away from the food which was OK by my reckoning.

A little off-topic, since it's definitely not Tiki in any way, but are any of you New Englanders into photography? If so, do you have any interest in a photographic cruise of Boston Harbor and the Charles on a 63-foot yacht?
If so, send me a PM so this forum doesn't get cluttered with non-Tiki cruft (like this post).

Ok, since Scottes started it, Im going further off topic.
A really good friend of mine is on the new Fox show "On The Lot" (She's actually the wife of a good friend of mine, but she's a good friend too).
SOme of you may have met her at past parties I've had. Her name is Hilary Graham, and she's one cool kitten.
Watch the show (mondays I think) and then vote for her like 300 times.
Thanks!!!
