The Devil-Ettes welcome FIVE new saucy girls to the group and as usual you can expect lots of go-go action, prizes (FROM BONE PRODUCTIONS!), beach party fun, and amazing LIVE music by APE, the world famous six -piece exotica rock band. Headed up by tiki-carving beachcomber Crazy Al on vocals, San Francisco's APE will have you swingin' from the rafters. DJ OTTO (Tiki News Magazine) with spin savage tunes AND tribal fusion belly dance troupe CLANDESTINE will perform a special Japanese-themed dance.
This wild and wooly ruckus comes just in time to kick start summer but it won't be a party unless you're there! No SPF required!

Tonight was a blast! Excellent crowd (Which had thined down a bit by APE's second set, but it still made for a wonderful time!) All the performers we caught were excellent! And all around, it was just a great show!
So great to see a small knot of other TCers tonight, too.
Tonight's Tiki, Al carved onstage, #99 looked amazing! And Lane looked utterly relaxed playing along from the lounge- he just needed a coconut full of rum  Here's to a speedy recovery!
So without further ado, I just got the pictures from tonight up!
You can find them in the newest gallery- San Franciso Area- http://www.sevenpleasures.org/gallery/San-Francisco-Area
(Just click on the Exotica Au Go Go album).
here are a couple good ones-

I can understand why Al's dressed as Ali Baba, but why is he juking with a baby octopus?

We had a swell time, I'm so glad we were able to make it. In particular, I was entranced by the films that Domenic Priore presented for us -- each one was a short little gem, and the mind reels at the effort it must have taken to track down these snippets. I picked up my copy of Dumb Angel; it looks like I'll be getting a ton of enjoyment out of that. Definitely more book than magazine. I also learned, courtesy of APE, that I do not have a future in hula hooping.
Here's a link to my full album of pics from the evening:
http://photo.humuhumu.com/v/ape_extravaganza/
And here are a few selections:
 Very young Beach Boys (I think?)
The old Kelbo's on Pico!
Eden Ahbez meets Nat King Cole
Hundred-year-old film of tourists in Waikiki!
Hundred-year-old film of surfers in Hawaii!
Now I know how he was able to keep his TV secret -- he spent the whole night with a beer to his lips.
Tiki Tony! Or is it Tiki tOny? I get confused.
Stink Eye Smiley
Otto is spared Crazy Al's juju
As is Mai Tai
Travellin' Tiki's dad get targeted
Surprise visit from Annabelle of Lushy! When we saw each other at the bar, we both exclaimed "what are you doing here?!"

One of APE's First Gigs was with LINK WRAY!!! back in May of '99
So our very own Frank Novicki has something spacial for You and APE at the MakeOut Room April 5th!
A Tribute to Rock Guitar God
Link Wray!
Frank and his back-up band, which includes Klaus Flouride (Dead Kennedys) on bass, Mike Burns (ex-Sloe Gin Joes) on drums, and Ferenc Dobronyi (Pollo Del Mar) on second guitar, will be tearing through a slew of Link’s instrumental classics: songs like Rumble, Rawhide, The Ace Of Spades, Jack The Ripper and many more. 15 savage songs in 30 maniacal minutes! Plus awesome Link-related visuals by projectionist Jaime Lieberman.
THEN APE! and Tiki Chopping Fun!

Dang! On the same night the original 1981 lineup of the Flesh Eaters are playing at Slim's! This is the lineup with John Doe and DJ Bonebrake from X, Dave Alvin and Bill Bateman from The Blasters, Steve Berlin from Los Lobos, and Chris D. of course. I'll swing by after the show and see if you're still there.
