I will go back and get the Pokop.

Visited last week during my trip to SD...great stuff. Great selection of Tiki Farm & Munktiki, TONS of carvings and masks (and not all made in Bali), some great aloha shirts, super-friendly staff. A+

Stopped by today to check out these lamps. Pretty cool. Large ones are $300 and small are $150. A bit more than I am able to pay, but cool nonetheless. If anyone wants to send me a birthday gift....

With the sweet echos of Oasis7 still hanging in the air, Freaky Boutiki staff takes a well deserved breather. So much for trying to be in two places at once. How does that Otto do it?
Carving Litrodora pendant this afternoon on my tiny lanai overlooking the lagoon. Perfect weather and I haven't yet cut myself today!
That's The Catamaran in the distance. (At night we can hear the drums their outdoor Polynesian show. There used to be an eternal torch on the top of the Catamaran but it's been gone for a few years now.)
Looking east towards Buzzy's and the rest of America. Only 3000 miles to Philly!

Looking west towards Hank's and all that's left of this side of America:
Hi Hank! I can see you right now. You're at home, on the couch, wearing your tiki pajamas watching tv...
Buzzy Out!

Atomikitty's whimsical Coconut Monkey Project has found a permanent home at the Freaky Boutiki but don't worry... These little fellas don't fling poo like ordinary monkeys, they smoke cigars and pipes and hold their cute monkey kiddies tight.
These charming portraits are sure to give your tipsy guests a giggle.
I couldn't resist buying The Commodore for myself. I'm told we share a likeness!

Need a beeeeee-youtiful palm mask big enough to hide that ugly old refrigerator?
Not a problem!
Lets face it... the only thing that radiates mana better in your home bar than a imaginatively carved tiki, is a GIANT imaginatively carved tiki!
We're proud to welcome legendary Malibu mega-carver Zach Zachary to the Freaky Boutiki's growing line up of talented artists.
Zach's enigmatic large scale carvings are oiled and hand rubbed to a rich glowing patina that simply must be seen to be believed. My pics hardly do them justice.

Ditto that. That giant window tiki with the display in it's mouth is one of the coolest thing I've ever seen.
HodaHank, Me thinks you need to open a Tiki Restaurant, with your display skills.

Dammit Jim, I'm a retailer not a flamboyant restauranteur!
But I do declare all this old southern (Philly) doctor (Haitian Psychic Surgeon)would need is the perfect location, the perfect investor, the perfect staff, the perfect pupu and drink menus, and the perfect bartender. Did I mention the perfect location? What can I say I'm a perfectionist.
In the meantime I must say something about a completely unrelated matter...
San Diego Audio Explorers rejoice!
<<<AVAILABLE NOW @ FREAKY BOUTIKI>>>
The Tikiyaki Orchestra's Stereoexotique is exquisite. A Perfect Storm of Exotica, Latin, Surf, Jazz and a delicate compositional skill make Jim Bacchi's debut disc a marvelous voyage. Stereoexotique makes a fine addition to any thoroughbred exotica collection or an excellent place to start for absolutely anyone with a who likes to chill.
Bacchi's shifting combinations of keyboard, mallet percussion and hand drum sounds create hypnotic atmospheres and textures. Gary Brandon of The Blue Hawaiians is here too contributing to three tracks his distinctive lap steel. Playful cover art by Tiki Shark himself Brad Parker is the colorful parasol making this luscious audio cocktail slide down smooth.
While I couldn't be more excited to see the rumored super-group currently being assembled to perform the album live Friday November 2 at San Diego's legendary Bali Hai, I still hope Jim will shortly return to his tropical subterranean lair, warmed by the earths core no doubt, deeeeeeeeep beneath Burbank, to create more of this wonderful stuff!
