It was a fun evening seeing everyone, but WHERE WAS THE CAMERA?
The only camera I saw going was Floratina's! I was going to take some digital pics, but because of the neighborhood, and the distance I had to park, I wasn't going to walk down (those streets) with a digital camera in hand. I'm spoiled here in Huntington Beach.

We had a blast last night! T and I decided to venture into the night at the last minute and we were glad we did.
The Mai Kai Gents were superb and Iuka Grogg's voice is as smooth as Demerera Rum. Miss Mauna Loa was hypnotic and the band didn't miss a tribal beat!
It was great seeing everyone again. We shared drinks with the very suave Suicide Sam for the first time and TC was representin' with the likes of Sven, Floratina, King Kuku, Sugar Caddy Daddy, Johnny (can I get a drink?) Velour and others that I did not get a chance to chat with.
Chiki's carvings were awesome and his giveaways were these really cool Marquesan style plaques that I unfortunately did not win (and that Diablo Tiki was pretty cool too!).
Anyhoo, I did not take any pix but I'm sure someone did. Floratina was armed with the video cam so maybe she will share some stills with us.
Much fun and much Tiki love.
Can you feel the love?

WOW! What a night! You guys packed that place and gave us such cheer! THANK YOU!! Chikitiki's art was a big hit and the door prizes were fantastic! What more can I say, I'm just blown away by the great turnout and overall fun vibe. Let's please do it again soon! Pictures anyone? WOW!

p.s. The TV guys were there, but because they didn't have clearance to tape the club interior or the audience (Lava Lounge policy), they stayed right up front with a hand-held camera.

What channel is the documentary being filmed for (PBS,KCET,etc)? I'd like to make sure I tape it since I probably won't be able to make it on Tuesday. |

Poly Pop, this is a project of two nice older (meaning my age) guys who are musicians. They are doing it out of their own interest, for public access cable TV in Long Beach. |

Has this been seen yet by anyone? Is there a video/DVD copy available? Any word at all?
