If you want to see why Tiki Revival is even more fun than the classic-era, check these guys out.
Here's my take from a prior post....
"I was expecting a classic exotica band but these guys have invented their own genre. You might think of them as the Tiki B-52's but I think of them this way: Imagine the Cramps visit the Tiki-Ti and get totally f'ed up on Ray's Mistakes. There they hear a Martin Denny tune and then decide to combine psycho-billy with an exotica inspiration. The result to me would be the Ding Dong Devils."

John-O, your assessments are so brilliant and apt that we may end up quoting you as our official description!
For this show, we're actually working in a few more sounds... including that of a small town municipal gazebo band being forced to drink Sazeracs through their Sousaphone, then placed in the pit at Bimbo's to back Tempest Storm and Blaze Starr.

Despite the well-intentioned efforts of his keepers, Rama Lama got loose in the Ding Dong Devils Arts & Crafts room again last night -- the result is, there will be a limited amount of Ding Dong Devils noisemakers on hand Saturday at Dons!

Actually Jason you're close--Tootsie Pops cans. But we may do Pringles in the future to get a deeper bass rattle.
