That's funny I was there too, where were you? hahaha... anyways it was nice meeting DustyCajun and Mrs. DustyCajun, Kevin Kidney and Pete Moruzzi and of course Sven. I got there around four and the place was pretty full for early afternoon but it was very quiet when we left around nine. I will post some pictures later.

It was nice to meet you too, Hiltiki. We had to leave early to grab a bite at Damons before flying out to Key West. I never realized that Wednesdays were TC night Tiki Ti, just dumb luck that we were flying out that day. Will have to make it down again some time. A couple of photos from the evening.
Mr. and Mrs. Dustycajun
Cheers to Sven, thanks for signing my copy Tiki Modern

My pleasure! Thank you for all your image-rich posts here! (...I gotta stop wearing that same shirt for every Tiki outing... I just like it so much )

Sven,
I noticed the shirt thing but wasn't going to say anything. For the guy who is set to publish "The Look of Tiki" I would think you would be wearing three different shirts a day just for the advertising!
One Wednesday
The Next Wednesday

Sven,
Ouch! I guess I may have deserved that (a little). Remember, I'm a relatively new guy around here.
I picked the toned-down old man shirt because:
a) Had to fly out to Key West and sleep in it all night, and;
b) Needed something "muted and generic" to go with my plaid shorts once I got to the first Tiki bar on the drive out to the Keys.
Look forward to your new book so that I can figure out how to dress for this crowd. I wear an XL if you happen to see something that would help my image.
Hope you had fun at the Tonga Hut.
DC

Hope it was clear that I was, like you, only kidding. If you look at the Tonga Hut photos, I was wearing a muted-BUT Tiki- shirt . And there IS that Tommy Bahama faded/monchrome/navy type of shirt that is trying to be less "loud", which in my opinion is the opposite of what a Hawaiian shirt examplifies. But we had discussions bout that before here...
The "Look of Tiki" will show 99% vintage shirts, many so loud, they just don't make'em anymore like that.
I like those Tikis you are posing with! Highly stylized, but in a good way. I am always partial to that narrow-on-the-bottom/wide-on-the-top style.

Nothing says A L O H A like a L O U D Aloha shirt.
