The time is drawing near.. the ships are setting sail, and the wahines wave goodbye as we all make the journey back to the Island of the Car Gods…
The low rumble of the volcano is replaced by the growl of ancient engines.. it can only mean one thing!
It is time for Hot Rod Hula Hop 4!
The one, the only, and the original.. midwest mash up of tiki bars and hot rod cars!
The infamous greaser's luau returns for its fourth year, and you do not want to miss it!
The Fraternal Order of Moai and the Headhunters cc have skirted the unexplored corners of the globe in search of the savage.. the unusual.. the tropical tiki sights and sounds your mainland soul has been calling out for..
..and now it will be unleashed!
AUGUST 8th and 9th in sunny and tropical Columbus Ohio
Hot Rod Hula Hop 4
Friday Night
"The Feast of the Tiki Gods"
Live performances by:
The winners of the Hawaiian Music Awards Exotica category.. Masters of the birdcall and Princes of Okonkuluku… the fabulous Waitiki!
…playing all of your classic favorites like no one else can.. direct from Hawaii, the voice of the islands... the great Francis Llacuna!
…flying in on his Witco jet, the poet laureate of Polypop.. the alii of all that is aloha.. the voice that makes the wahines swoon and the fellas take up the ukulele.. the incomparable Pablus!
…her hips and hands are insured for well over a million dollars, but her moves are beyond priceless.. her Hawaiian ancestry shows as she dances the same traditional hulas as her grandmother did before her.. the spell binding Leilani!
Plus.. a kalua pig roast, full Polynesian buffet dinner, and all the classic mai tais you could wish for... with fresh mint of course! And this year we are proud to have on hand for sale Trader Vic’s own mai tai glasses to serve his famous cocktail in. Be sure to pick one up as a souvenir, and refill it all weekend long! At a mere $5 a mai tai, how can you say no?
Saturday Night
"The Octane Ritual"
Our reputation for putting on what is simply the weirdest and best show of the summer has been steadily growing by word of mouth. From the soulful sounds of tradewind breezes, to crashing waves of melodic surf, to the raucous rhythms of pure adrenaline, we always seek out the best of both tiki and kustom culture just for you. Explore the boundaries of your musical tastes as we take you on a wild ride… like a trip from the sunny beach back to a beer soaked punk after party. Don’t be surprised if you find yourself with a Blue Hawaiian in one hand, and a raised can of American beer in the other!
Live on stage that night:
The Koffin Kats
The Cocktail Preachers
Waitiki
Go! Tsunami
The Heptanes
And of course.. this show would simply not be the same without the amazing performances by the talented ladies of Barnyard Burlesque!
And… returning champions of the turntable.. DJ Jet Sterling and his pals from The Surfabilly Freakout!
And of course we'll have a lot full of the hottest hot rods and customs!
Not to mention... Tiki gods, tropical drinks, food by the FOM chef (featuring menu items from Trader Vic’s and the Kahiki!), vintage and tiki vendors, artists, and all the PBR and heat you can stand!
Grab advance tickets now at http://www.hotrodhulahop.com
And yes, we know they are cheap. Nobody does a show like this for so little.
We do suggest buying advance tickets to ensure you get to see this show. We do expect Friday to sell out especially fast. It always does, and this year it is bigger than ever. Many people missed out last year, do not be one of them!
Sponsored by our pals at Kahiki Foods, Trader Vic's, DaddyKatz.com, Tiki Magazine, Bachelor Pad Magazine, and Surfabilly Freakout.. big mahalo to all of them for the help!
And for the rodders who bring their cars, we have goodie bags for you provided by Jegs, Speedway Motors, Hoosier Racing Tires, & Edelbrock! Again we say mahalo!
We are still booking select vendors. Space will become very limited as we get closer. You want to ensure you get a super cheap space to sell some goods this year?
Send a message to: kukuahu@yahoo.com and title it "HRHH4 vending"
Cheers and Mahalo,
Jeff

By request, images of the HRHH4 mug being produced by Poptiki:
Limited edition of 100, available at the event only. We wanted a mug this year that looked like a classic, and Pop did not disappoint. I am very excited to see one in person.
We also have a huge assortment of incredible items in this years silent auction and raffle. It really is going to be a sight to see when all of it is set out for viewing.
In addition to that, Trader Vic's has sent us 2 cases of their mai tai glasses that we are going to offer for only $5 each so that everyone has the option of drinking their Vic mai tais in the classic glass during the event. Given that we are selling them cheaper than retail, and that the mai tais will be only $5 as well, I suspect that they will go fast.
And yes, we will have fresh mint like always.
