Hi Sleestak,
Creepy Creeps kicked ass, we really enjoyed the show! It was nice to meet you earlier today. My girlfriend and I listened to your CD all the way back to LA, love it! Hope to see you guys perform again soon.
Mahalo!

Sleestak,
as we discussed before hand, I was very worried that the Creepy Creeps would be too Heavy for Tiki Oasis.
But I think for the most part you guys blew the crowd away.
and yeah the moshing and crowd surfing was crazy.
I hadn't been in a Pit in about 10 years.
Cheers to a great Tiki Oasis performance man,
Jeff(bigtikidude)

I didn't know you were a Creepy Creep, Sleestak. Great show at Oasis! I enjoyed it a lot! Killer Voodoo Priest Witch Doctor costumes too! Keep rockin' it!

I was in front of the elevator with a LARGE crowd of folks who didn't dig it and had all moved into the hallways to escape the noise. Oasis is not the place for a pit, man. When I heard that, I was really bummed. Bummed like I'd be if a rapper sampled Frank Sinatra. I've been contemplating this post for a couple of hours and was reluctant to state my opinion here because the Creepy Creeps ARE a good band, but there's a place for everything.

Ya know, we LOVE the Creepy Creeps and they put on a GREAT show. However, there did seem to a significant group of non-tiki teenagers towards the front of the stage not wearing wristbands, wanting to slam dance. In a way it was high energy = good. On the other hand it was odd for Tiki Oasis...wish it didn't happen cause it took away from the experience and the show..and sorry to sound pissy, but I didn't want my nose broken at TO...I was at their elbow level. Thankfully, all turned out well and the show proceeded awesomely. Maybe tighter security next time. Creepy Creeps, get your arses up the Bay Area. You guys f'n rock! Thanks for playing!

the CC are one of my favorite bands, i didnt think it was too heavy for TO just because of this years theme, but i can see how some of the crowd would think so. I say turn up the reverb and play as fast as you can till your fingers bleed. I did notice abunch of non tiki people there without wristbands for the tunes though. i cant wait to see you creeps again, maybe our bands could play a show together sometime? creepy garage/surf and sci fi ska/surf sounds like a good combo to me! haha, anyways here are some pics!

The Creepy Creeps really kicked ass. Crazy Al and I were laughing, while we were in it elbows deep, as we commented on crowd surfing being a first for Tiki Oasis this year. Yeah, it's a little extreme for Oasis, but the really cool thing was, the Creepy Creeps knew that, and told the audience that while they really appreciated the exuberance, they did need to take it a down a notch or two, because it wasn't appropriate for that particular venue. And for the most part the audience respectfully responded.
Oh, and yeah, Creepy Creeps, get your asses up to the San Francisco Bay Area!!! We all want to see you up here!!! There are tons of cool venues up here, or at the least you could play Tikitastic's house! (sorry to volunteer your services without asking, Mark!) 
My only gripe, other than the lack of wristband monitoring (especially with that homeless dude that kept crashing our NorCal room party and wanting to spend the night/week/year in there on the sofa) was that the Creepy Creeps and Ghastly ones had pointed out that they had merchandise available for sale, but the vending was over for the day on Saturday night, and the bands all took off on Sunday morning. I was going to buy a bunch of their cd's, shirts, mug, and whatever other schwag they might have had hanging around - that was one of the things I was looking forward to in the vending area this year. Oh well, another time I guess. The show still rocked!
