That's a shame it's on the same night!
Anyway, this Hula Girls show is not gonna be something you want to miss! They have been secretly working on this project for a while now, and I think people are going to be pleasantly suprised! A mixture of Rockabilly with hawaiian and mid century tiki imagery, combined with Kar Kulture, surf, spaghetti western and a healthy dose of Doo-Wop vocals...this is "Tiki" music that no one else is doing! Truly unique!
And I am totally stoked to be seeing the Swinging Tiki's, one of the old-school tiki bands from way back!

SWEET. Some of my favorite guys, all in one place, making beautiful music together. I'm sure Kevin has some spotted memories of old gigs at that place too. Hopefully this doesn't induce any bad flashbacks for him.

Probably, Tiki Kitty! His band, the Torn 50's, played all over OC back in the day! I myself have many Jaegermeister fueled memories of playing there a million times with the various punk and metal bands I was with in the early 90s!

Jeff, I have played in every type/genre of band known to MAN! You name it, I have played it!
As far as Metal, I was always on the Halford tip as far as hairstyles are concerned. I have actually never had long hair!

Nah ! Just the fact that in the heavy metal world of the late 80's, Halford was an anomaly in that he had short hair. Ironic, considering that the other metalheads all looked like women, and Halford always looked tougher and more macho then the rest! Go figure! I mean, who would you be more scared to fight, Halford or a poof looking guy like Sebastian Bach? I am sure Sebastian probably got more chicks...and Halford? Ahem,.....probably not so much! When I was a kid, I had no idea about Halford... i just thought he was English, and that explained all the leather and cop hat!
