Ok - lets put something together New England Ohana. Zeta needs to meet the Ohana. I am the last person to pull it together with my mobility issues - but I will try my darndest to get somewhere that we can arrange.
Exotic Island is always available, but it may not have the proper 'provenance'. But the films are def spectacular!

I'd love to meet up. I'm not a great "puller-together-er", but a Kowloon or even a Tiki Island meet-up before Zeta leaves would be worth a try.
I know it's Easter weekend, but how is late Saturday afternoon or evening for people?

Passover is putting a damper on things, one thing after another but I'm game for an evening watch you all snack on Saturday.

Oh man! I missed these posts and didn't realize we had an exotic visitor! I'm up for anything starting April 6. That's like 1 night before you leave Zeta. Anyway, if anything happens on the 6th or the 7th before you leave I'm game!

Yes, definitely worth it. Just watch how fast it sells out.

Just a reminder for the NE tiki ohana - this Thurday, the Orchestrotica's exotica quartet is doing a free show in Brookline, MA at the Fireplace. Lotsa new music from the upcoming album to be played! Details:

Well, this year is going to be a bit scaled down. The NeTT was getting a bit too big, and becoming a logistical nightmare (multiple buses, too many folks to be at the small stops at the same time, etc etc). So now we've got OHANA to go & get big and unruly! lol
But alot of folks missed the bus tour, so yeah, its back. Tickets & all info will be posted tmrw. There is only ONE bus this year, which means only 50 seats, and when they're gone, they're gone.
Full info in the Nett thread tmrw. Hope you join us zonker. And break a leg Mr Ho. Wish I could make it.

Ho ho ho from Mr. Ho!
Man, the NE ohana missed a good exotica show last night at Johnny D's! Didn't see as many aloha shirts and tikiphiles out there as I like to (always nice playing for the "outsiders" haha) , but hope to see you all in January at the big Esquivel CD release show (23pc big band plays the new album in it's entirety, plus a quick preview-set from the exotica quartet who perform a full length show Jan 30th at Club Passim in Cambridge, MA with local surf band, The Electric Space Heaters).
We're also in NYC on Dec 2 - http://orchestrotica.com/shows.cfm for those down in southern CT!
If you missed the show news, you can join the mailing list at http://orchestrotica.com/mailinglist.cfm?ref=tc1104
saludos,
Mr. Ho and the Orchestrotica

Dusting this sucker off again....
Working on some more stuff in New England (but don't feel you need to wait on me!! Go! Support tiki!)
Tiki Retreat in the Berkshires... trying to nail down a date and get a hotel discount for everyone. Most likely LATE summer... if I can wait that long. Luau Hale's drinks are fantastic!
And I'm dying for some Cheese Monas, so I'm thinking a meet-up at Ken Chins in Worcester is very close on the horizon.
And pretty much anytime anyone wants to do the Kowloon/Bali Hai double-play, I'm in.
Also, the Hukelau in Chicopee has their Hawaiian Show the next three Fridays this month!! I'm gone the next two weekends, but don't let that stop you! Just be sure to bring a flask, as their cocktails are nearly devoid of rum.
