I have a post that I would link to this one if I knew how. Anyway, we're heading up and would enjoy seeing some NW TCers especially since we can't make the TikiKon. Trader Vic's, Hula Hula...it's all good.

Aloha, Folks!
A special thanks to dogbytes (and Mr. Bytes) for supporting Hula Hula and suggesting another rendezvous. I'm taking off work that day to come in and tantalise the musical tastebuds of the attending local and (out of town) Lounge & Tiki Ohana, from 6pm to 9pm (possibly later). I'll be playing a mix of 1950s-early '70s Lounge, Exotica, Easy Listening, Pop Jazz, Soundtrack themes and cuts, Latin, Spy & Sleuth, Calypso, Hawaiian, Polyester Lounge, and Surf.
Currently Hula Hula does not have a Happy Hour menu or dinks (as far as I know), but the well drinks are $4 all night and each day, and for you beer imbibers, there's the $2 PBRs.
Hope to see you there!
Okole Maluna!

I'm coming and I'm going to wear a really loud shirt! Bringing two wahines too. If they start doing the splits, let me know cause that's generally time to leave.

I'm coming too! Man I'm so excited about everything, mainly meeting everyone, checking out the rectangular bar, breathing clean air, you know, every day stuff!
Looking forward to meeting everyone!
TT
(I really am looking forward to meeting everyone, but let it be known that Mrs. Bytes said she'd kill me, chop me up, barbeque me korean style, and tell woofmutt I was a bowl full of pork ribs...I don't post a lot  )

Ok, well I said I had retired from covering NW Tiki Events with my camera due to the fact that it's time consuming, but I can't resist adding a couple of photos from last night because I swear I saw little tears in Monkeyskulll's eyes when he heard my pronouncement.
Rumour has it that Mr. Dogbytes and Monkeyskull look alike so this is my effort to get them to look like one of those vintage Album covers that were kind of cheesy in nature. My models were all too willing to participate.
At first the models were unsure:
Still not "loose" enough:
Ahh now they're getting into it, even sending messages:
What on earth do they see down there?
If I could have just gotten Monkeyskull to focus long enough to cross his
hands like Mr. Dogbytes "Polynesian Dreaming" could have been a big hit.
But you know how models are...
Monkeyskull really nails the model look in this one:
Seriously serious about getting the shot:
Here Monkeyskull spoils the fun by telling Mr. Dogbytes that he's going solo on his next album:
Officially retired now. :::: hands camera to Teko Teko ::::

I don't want to be overly critical, but it's curious how only the above, of all the shots, truly captures the gravitas of the evening. That is, with the possible exception of the impression that a hula girl is pulling out my brains and fashioning them into a some kind of revolting gray matter lei.

BTW, I had a swell time at 4H last night and want to thank everyone who came out (even those who only did so because they took the wrong bus.)
Oh, and FYI, I'm quite sure the photo below was taken during Poi Polloi's bizarre and disturbing "Glow Stick Dance."
