How's next weekend for everyone? I was thinking the Hu Ke Lau Drums of Polynesia show. Show time is 7.15, and seating is at 5.30, 6.00, and 6.30.
I can leave work a little early but I couldnt get there until around 6.00ish
How's that sound to everyone? Gather at the bar...have cocktails, and do a 6.30 seating?
Those of you who have to travel, can you jet early on a friday and get to chicopee by 6 or so?
If it doesnt work for everyone, we can always do a kowloon saturday afternoon.
For those who need directions or more info http://www.hukelau.com/

I could probably make it next Friday. If we get enough peeps together, I'll make an effort to bail early from work to be up there in time.
OK, who else? You know you want to!

Can't make next weekend for the Hu Ke Lau - but don't let that stop you from going. Sounds like it will be an awesome time!
On Saturday, 10/1, the wife and I would be interested in hitting the Kowloon. I'm guessing like 5 or 6 o'clock - sound good? Just need to talk to my folks and in-laws to firm up coverage for our kids.
Man, too bad about the Kahiki Moon in VT. I was so looking forward to going there sometime. Anyone know why they closed? Lack of business? What a bummer.

Excellent!! Me & the wahine will be at the Huke next friday. 10/1 at Kowloon might be a problem for me but we'll see. Looking forward to seeing everyone!

I think my boss can let me off early enough to go. If not, I'll quit.
P.S. johnman, I wanna go to the Kowloon too but the trip to THE Hukilau is eating up all my dough. I'm on peanut butter and jelly rations--FIFTH big week!

No problemo Pappy. I may wait on going for the same reason (need to reserve the cash flow). I'm going to the promised land, aka California, in less than four weeks and every penny counts right now. Actually maybe we can head to Kowloon sometime after I get back - maybe within the first couple of weeks of November? I should have some cool pictures and plenty of stuff to talk about after experiencing tiki on the left coast. At minimum I plan on hitting Tiki Ti, Lucky Tiki and Bali Hai.
Hope everyone has an awesome time at the Hu Ke Lau!!!

Perhaps what we need to do is sponsor a large event for the national community so the vendors, artists, etc. can come to US for once!
I can envision a "tiki swap meet" where all the Californians bring stuff they found at estate/yard/garage sales and sell it to us for less than what we'd pay on ebay.

I don't think the seven of us can pull it off. What can we offer the rest of the country? All our chainsaw artists can only make bears and indians. Coming in 2006... from the 99 Restaurant (formerly the Aku Aku) Hukilau New England. Featuring the exotic polka sounds of Happy Louie (with bird calls added) and some mugs we made at the craft center... oh, it's too awful.

Well, we have a lot to offer the folks who live in warmer climes. You see, THEY provide the tiki stuff, and we provide gorgeous fall foliage, lobster, skiing, history...
I think that most tikiphiles also appreciate other things that they don't have access to on a regular basis.
The theme could focus around the contrast. A little bit of the South Pacific in the North Atlantic.

6? Wow. I did really expect there'd be more of us. Primo, if it's a toll call for you, let me know & I'll call.
