I'll be the first to say, MONDO-LOUNGE was awsome!
It was possibly the best party I've ever been to. The bands were great. I love the Martini Kings. It was cool having them and King Kukulele and C.B. Howlie play in the same room with the vendors.
M-M, please do again next year if not sooner!
Here's a pic of me, Tony from the Martini Kings and his little friend.

It was a great party, but we had to leave before it ended. Who won the prizes? (I'm rooting for LAWebChick)

No time to pull out individual pics, I'm afraid... I'm at a work conference, and have just experienced a rather life-changing (positive) event that's going to soak up even more time for awhile... here's the link to my gallery:

It was a beautiful, wonderful time! Everyone had a blast, I particularly enjoyed that everyone dressed up.

has it actually been a week?
well, first of all, thank you to all the ohana that showed up in suport of the event!!! you WERE there at the #1 mondo event.
and thanks especially to those who helped make it work behind the scenes:
* tiki hai for decor (with some help by our infamous chikitiki)
* matteo for general everything
* humuhumu and naomi for bag stuffing and much more...
* tiki todd hackett
* la webchick for promo
* smogbreather, baby doe, otto, and swanky for mucho mentoring
* dave and rebecca and the purple orchid crew for pouring da booze (including our own lady velour behind the bar)
* dr. z and dolphin girl for correcting the rally - i never did thank them publically - so thank you guys (my prize capitan went and got himself nicely toasted - so the giveaways went a little differently than expected.)
* sam gambino for the swell invites
* shag for the swell glasses
* the tiki central vendor contingent: frank and tiki farm, tiki madness, falling cocos, sneaky tiki
* the tiki central entertainment contingent: king kukulele and c.b. howlie, gorilla x, lee joseph, senor amor, winky tiki and his gurls, cherry capri
* casey at the Caliente Tropics for being so generous with their prizes.
* and many many other folks who i am sure i have forgotton to include... thank you to all...
NOW here are my official "campaign promises" for next year (yes, there might indeed be a next year).
MONDO 2005:
(i don't want to turn this thread into a critique thread - so if you have feedback or suggestions - please email me or PM me...)
* shorter rally route.
* reward the top five rally winners.
* nicer official hotel with friendlier service (find the Casey Jones of L.A.!)
* 2nd stage with better view lines to the adoring public
* keep the early bird discount for smart advanced buyers!
* consider breaking up the event into a daytime and nighttime ticket to make it more selectively affordable OR make it a multi-day event for the price.
* try to find a 'name' performer for the event.
* try to find a way to add more performers to the bill.
* add cool ephemeral gilms to the event
MONDO! MONDO! MONDO!
