Thanks for the great suggestions! I'm road-tripping down from the bay area, so I'll pack all this stuff.
For "nigthtime wear", do you mean fabulous evening fashions (smoking jackets, fezzes) or jammies? (Or both?)

I would go with the smoking jackets and fezzes.  Although if your jammies make you comfortable, hey, roll with it!

13) Snacks/Food
A) Often times Room Service is very slow
B) The Restaurants in the hotel can get crowded
C) If you are drinking -- you'll not want to drive
D) Snacks/Food - Non-perishable if you don't have a fridge in your room

Yeah!!! What CheekGirl said. The hotel closed one restaurant last year, and the rest were understaffed. This made it difficult to eat and run to the next crawl room. SO PREPARE IN ADVANCE.

Thanks VERY much y'all. I'm going to start eating now to make sure I have enough body fat to absorb all the rum I'll be uploading.
I'll bring a coffeemaker too, to make sure Mr. BonzoGal is adequately caffeinated! (And a CostCo sized bottle of Advil for the morning after. Speaking of which- I've heard about the room crawl- does any of them have a "morning after" room for Gatorade, Advil, ice-packs and bacon sandwiches?)

Hey! I was planning bringing at least one of my smoking jackets this year. I'll probably bring my meager fez, but may be purchasing a deluxe Fez-o-Rama one this year.

Maybe you should come up with a different name for him than "Mr. BonzoGal".
Just a suggestion, y'know. Hey, whatever is cool with vous is cool avec moi.

Check out www.tikioasis.com Beyond the Oasis for restaurant info
There are some good eateries right on Hotel Circle
You can cab or drive prior to drinking
http://www.tikioasis.com/beyond.html
also some folks ordered pizzas to be delivered. This is especially keen for late eats as the restaurant closes fairly early, and room service does take a while unless you pre-order (breakfast!)

I'm pretty sure every room has a coffeemaker with decent coffee. Most rooms have fridges for your milk and snacks too.

May I suggest Adam's Steak and Eggs on the opposite side of Hotel Circle from the Hanalei. Perfect for a hangover recovery breakfast...it's been there since the beginning of time. I remember my mom taking us there when I was a kid. Ruth's Chris (or even Black Angus) it ain't, but cheap steak and a Bloody Mary should cure what ails ya.

Last year the hotel was forward thinking enough to have an outdoor grill going during most of the day. I sincerely hope that is the case this year. Taking advantage of the outdoor grill can save many and numerous headaches with room or restaurant service.
I do hope the hotel staffs up for this thing. I can understand that last year caught them by suprise.
