Any chance of hearing more Exotica and classic Hawaiian steel this year around the pool? Or in keeping with the event theme, lots of Harry Belafonte Calypso mixed to perfection?
And any possibility of getting an active microphone hooked up to the sound system so DJs can announce when Otto's group events are about to happen? Or is that too corny old-school?

that is a great suggestion to have a mic. I will make sure one is available to the DJs and they can announce whatever is happening at Oasis as well as whatever tunes they just played!
Also, of course Caribbean and steel drum and Calypso are fair game this year, as well as spooky tunes on Sat to go with the Zombie theme.
As always, DJs are free to play whatever they want but I highly suggest they include at least some vintage Exotica (Baxter, Lyman, Denny)

Hey Otto-
This may have been asked before, but...
What's the deal on kids' admission to the events? Free? Discount? Full boat?
Thanks.

All kids under 18 are FREE
and there are free kids Mai Tais with only one shot of rum!!!
Just kidding.
There is a kiddie room during the day so parents can go shopping for a few minutes while kids are occupied!!

This reminds me of the episode of Malcom in the Middle where the older brother and his German cowboy boss decided to babysit the guests' kids while they went on a hayride. The old German guy bought them all hard lemonade (not realizing what "hard" meant) and got all the kids drunk - they were quite managable soon after! I'm thinking something like that could be "arranged!" Just kidding! But DANG! Where was that daycare when I was a kid?!

Simmer down now. I just spoke to Otto. The ticketing website is wrong. He's going to look into it and post an update here.

I just checked brown paper tickets and all seems to be fine. Not sure where your problem was buying tickets. If you can e-mail me off list I can try and figure it out.
Thanks!

cheers

Hi Otto and Tiki Room,
I joined Tiki Central today and I really should have introduced myself in the Introduction Forum first before posting here. ( I will introduce myself there and of course why I enjoy all things Tiki ).
I am in the process of getting my passport renewed and hope that in a few weeks time I am able to book a trip to San Diego for August; I shall be travelling on my own for about 8 -9 nights (and would love to meet new people and meet some San Diegans or anyone especially those who are into Tiki.
I am 26 years old and have never travelled by myself before and its something I want to accomplish - I never took a gap year when I was at uni to travel and backpack so this is I guess my chance to travel on my own and meet interesting people.
I am from the UK and ideally would love to attend this event.
My areas of concern is do solo travelers come to this event and have they been well recieved in the past? There is nothing like this in the UK so this really seems like a lot of fun.
How many people turn up or do you estimate to turn up?
Miss Darko

Hi miss Darko and welcome..
In 2006 I fist travelled to the USA and attended my first Tiki Oasis, I travelled alone but had some contacts and the only person I had actually met was Shag.
99% of people were super cool though i was accused of putting on a fake Australian accent once... you may not be so lucky because nobody likes poms(kidding)
I would be happy to introduce you to the folks I know and can give you some tips on backpacking in Sandiego and LA as I have done it twice before this trip, you will have a blast (and a hangover) thats for sure..
Cheers..
Tiki Trav
