So after a LOT of Schlitz at the Sputnik Sunday night we finally hit up the Continental Club and found a few people holding down the bar. Loren from Tiki boyds was there and a handful of drinking Burlesque girls.
BUT....the point of this whole drunken mess is that they still have the Tiki Boyds menu if you ask for it and will gladly make any drink on it. So we a plowed away a few. Brought back the short lived happy days of east Colfax.
I forsee a night of a Denver tiki drinks crawl coming up this summer. The double dragon, Continental Club and many more. I have my bus license......Just find me a bus and I'll drive you happy campers anywhere you want to go.

Thinking about pre - gameing it at The Continental ( 5th and Santa Fe ) followed by some fine dining at El Taco De Mexico, then off to the show or perhaps a quick shot of fine cactus wine at Mezcal ( across from the Bluebird ) and finally off to the show.
Who the hell is Mrs. Valdez?

Tiki Fink,
I'm not going to be able to make it to Deadbolt tonight. I was planning on going, but something came up. Sorry - I look forward to getting together soon.

Casa Bonita!!! There is not much Tiki in Denver as far as bars or restaurants go. The Twin Dragon does some mighty good Tropical drinks and Chinese Food. If you have time, maybe the Castaways in Manitou Springs in Colorado Springs. But I understand it is now Pirate themed....aargggghhh!

I second Matterhorn's recommendation. Casa Bonita should be at the very top of your list if nothing else.

Get together? When??
Casa Bonita is interesting if you haven't seen it. There are some other fun exotic things here like Domo Japanese.

Man....its been real quiet around here lately....so maybe the thought of my runnin' chainsaw and a slew of western swing blastin' out of my garage will wake this back up.
I just finished this 6' Moai and I hope ya dig it. Its beetle kill pine and is stained almost completely black.
I love makin' these grumpy faced old bastards and could just make them over and over for the rest of my happy life and be totally content.
We'll turn Denver into the Easter'n' Island.
Happy St. Patricks day ya all.
Mr. Dale
