Pictures? Stories?
Let's go, somebody sober up and tell this very depressed guy who had to work on Sunday all the details so that I may live vicariously through your exploits!
Video? Court room sketch? Anything!!!

Here's a pic straight out of the Bizarro World.
Sully, you're just a big, ol' teddy bear. Yes you are. Yes you are!

Thunderlips and the Bum. You can tell Dio is a real fan the way he carries his own, personal copy of Sippin' Safari everywhere.

Tim extols the virtues of the common melon while Brian laughs at him.

There were lots of nice people there.
Sorry, Randy. This was the best pic of you and Mikey I could get:
The place was full of the Orchids of Hawaii lamps. Pho Republic is more tiki than most of the so-called tiki places Sully and I hit yesterday. Good apps too.
I just wanted to say The Bum is as nice a guy as I hoped he'd be. A real gentleman.

More more more!!!! 
I've just placed the Rendezvous in Okonkoluku record on the turntable, so I can enjoy these pictures with the proper aural backdrop.

Yes, definitely provide more details and photos.
I know I will regret asking for it, because I'm sure it was a blast, but I gots to know what I missed (at least I was at the Mai Kai)!

What a hoot!!
HUGE mahalos to the Bum, Pho, & Waitiki. Jay & I had a pretty crappy day, but it all turned around come sundown!!
Pappy, were you kicking me in the liver the whole ride home?
It sure feels like it.
Great to see everyone, new faces & old.
And BIZZARRO WORLD!?!?!!?!?!
Actually that pic reminds me of the "Eye of the Beholder" Twilight Zone episode...
lol.
Hey, I dont photograph well, but I'm stunningly handsome in person, I swear!!
Ok, I gotta go sneak in a nap under my desk.

Looks like phun.
I'm waiting for the sounds though - and the smells.
Did it smell like fun?
More pictures and add a little fragrance please.
Mahalo.

Great pix, folks! Thanks so much for coming out. Once again, an extremely successful NE Tiki event! The success was the fun, which is a rare combination of elements. I have to thank Jack Bardy, owner of Pho Republique, Brother Cleve, Mr. Ho, The Professor, who all contributed selflessly to the organization and logistics (or maybe illogistics, is a better term), of course to the Beachbum, for his expertise and spirit, which provided the inspiration for the event, and to the Thor Stor, Tiki Farm, Sam Gambino, and Diva Pinup for donating prizes which were raffled off, to the staff of Pho for their hospitality and professionalism, to Alex and Matt, the OKU Frat Boys. I'm sure I've left out someone, or some people, and I apologize for that.
But most of all, thanks to everyone who came out, from near and far. It's the people in attendence that make these events happen, and we have a great bunch up here. It was a mixed crowd, in terms of level of Tiki awareness; the range was from people who had no idea what this stuff is, why we drink these drinks, oh yeah, then that weird band, all the way up to Humu Humu. Everyone had a great time, and that's the bottom line. We may not have the kind of landmark establishments like the Mai Kai, or a Trader Vic's, or even anything Tiki in Boston proper, but we have the best hang here. And that's saying a lot; my experience has been that the Tiki crowd is hip, cool, and everyone's a great hang. But there is something special up here. The NE Tiki Tour proved that beyond the shadow of a doubt, and this event reinforces that conclusion.
So thanks again, everyone, and I'm already looking forward to the next thing!

I just meant that you two are polar opposites: she's a girl, petite, blonde, from the west coast, the embodiment of everything sweet and nice and stuff. And you're you. When you touched I we were going to see Total Protonic Reversal!
