For those of you that may be in town on the Friday night looking for something to do I know of 2 GREAT traditional Rockabilly-Roots Bands that will be playing at The World Famous Marine Club, 573 Home Street.
Friday the 29th, Cousine Harley, The Pete Turland Band will be playing the Marine. I have seen these guys a tonne of times and it's never a letdown.
Cousine Harley (aka Paul Pigat) has earned a reputation as one of the best guitarists around. His style is deeply rooted in the playing of Les Paul, Charlie Christian and Link Wray with a modern hotrod twist.
Pete Turland has played with the likes of Ray Condo, Pinetop Perkins, Harpdog Brown, Wanda Jackson, Sonny Burgess and the list goes on and on. (info from website)
Sorry about the promotion but these guys are friends and are truely amazing. It's probably a 7 dollar show for 2 bands... only 3.50 a band, not bad!

Hey Pep,
Can you add Mr and Mrs tiki-riviera to the dinner at Raglans list? Looking forward to meeting everyone!
As long as everyone has up to date vaccinations there shouldn't be any outbreaks....

All those coming from South of the border, please declair all Tiki Bobs as there will be a cavity search for those trying to smuggle Bob into the country!
Or I can save you the pain by you sending Bob directly to me to forever hold... I'm only doing this to make your trip a little less uncomfortable!
Canada needs BOBS!

Tiki-Riviera you guys are on the list for all the evening's debauchery (including dinner)!
We've now reached capacity for dinner (27 of us)! It's going to be cozy!
If there's anybody that wants to join in after today, there will definitely be no problem getting in to the Lushy/Waldorf show, just make sure you get there before 10pm ($10 cover).
Just to recap the suggested time table for 'Holy Crap! It's a Tiki Event in Vancouver 2005' (name subject to change):
3:30-5pm: all are welcome to visit Funhauser Decor
5:30pm: meet in front of the Seabus Waterfront Station (Cordova St. at the foot of Seymour St.)
6pm-8:30ish: Raglan's Bistro for dinner and drinks
8:30-9:30pm make our way back via Seabus then bus &/or taxi to the Waldorf (loads of time to get there)
9:30ish-10pm: arrive at the Waldorf (1489 E. Hastings St.) to see the show (and the venue!).
I'm REALLY looking forward to meeting all you TC folk!!!
This is what makes Tiki Central so great....Thanks Hanford for all your work!!!!
This also makes me realize the potential for a full-on annual Tiki Event in Vancouver, something many of us have been pondering for a while.
Stay tuned.....

RT, call me if you get in to town on Friday, we might be persuaded. I definitely will be conserving energy for Saturday so it won't be a late night for us!

Hmm, sounds like you're volunteering for the job of President & CEO. Sounds like a lot of work but I know you'll do a great job.  
Seriously, thanks for all the organizing you've put into this event. I hope funhauser sets an all time sales record on saturday.
