OK is anyone going to this and want to meet up while waiting for Disneyland to open its doors? We are embarressed to say that we are sucked in again but we just cannot stay away. We love Tiki, Disneyland, and Shag.

...and, I might ad, Shag's work again is excellent. I especially dig that green Aloha shirt! The circumstances might be adverse, but his designs are above and beyond.

Answered my own question. Some more stuff is on the Shag site. I like the shirt more than the original one.

I think the shirt is better too. This print was my favorite out of the original four so it makes me happy that it is the one they chose to do.

The new t-shirt is better too. Do you think they'll do this every several months until all the shag stuff is used up? I'd like a large version of the bird print myself.
Plus, all this attention may help save the Tiki Room. I've heard they were thinking of giving it the axe.

With a bazillion people in line waiting to buy goodies it might be a good time to circulate a petition.

Not only a petition to save the Tiki Room, but how about a petition to RESTORE the Tiki Room. Sometime in the 90's, they restored the soundtrack. A few months later, they edited the soundtrack. It would be nice if they did a new (and better) mix of the soundtrack and restore it to it's original lenght. That last mix was only a slight improvement over the original, but a very unbalanced mix. Give us back the fountain music number with an improved fountain. And restore the building, and effects back to their original glory. We could even get the Barker Bird back! And how about a Tiki shop? All of this should be a no-brainer. If they wanted to take an extra step...How about a Tiki Christmas show? As long as the music matches the original exotic sound with the primitive chants. The WDW Tiki Room show is TERRIBLE. I hope we get to keep the original. It would have been a better idea to keep the original show during the evenings and have the new one during the day. Oh well. I miss the Tahitian Terrace!!!
I don't know how to go about a petition, but if you need help writting a proposal, contact me. That's about as much as I can do. Your friend,

If anyone could help me out (Larry & Mrs. Lava perhaps?) by picking up an Aloha shirt I'd appreciate it -- I just can't justify flying out to California again, although I really enjoyed meeting everyone the last time around.
I'll can PayPal you the money up front so you don't have to float the costs. Shoot me an email at the address listed in my profile and we can work out the details.

Yeah, a petition to restore the Tiki Room! Restore, NOT re-do. If the guests speak, they will answer.
