Hey everyone - no one stole the banner. It came back to the bar with me, the other two Forbidden Island banners and the carful of seminar/room crawl FI stuff. All is good!

Bad mojo, someone, assumably a fan, stole the Forbidden Island banner at Oasis. Not cool. Hopefully whomever stole it will retun it. Unbelievable, that's truly creating bad karma.

Had a blast this weekend.
Thursday Night's show was the most epic Tikiyaki show yet....all those people, the lights, the sound system, Marina....crazy.
Thanx to Otto and Baby Doe having us, and for giving us our own night, so we could do our show right.
Thanx to Marina for being amazing in every way, totally professional and the perfect compliment to our music, and for Thor providing the awesome shrunken heads for her act.
That's not the last you'll see if her and Tikiyaki, if I can help it.
Thanx to Nelson, our guest percussionist and Crazy Al for adding to the fun immensely.
It was really great to meet so many new people, lots of whom were out of towners, seeing the band for the first time.
It was also great to sit in on bongos with Lushy...big fun.
Project Pimento, great too see our own JP sittin' in on bass....I really enjoyed the set.
This was my first time seeing APE too, I really dug it, but who's that nut job hacking a tree onstage ? 
Happy 10th Anniversary Tiki Oasis !

So what was up with the guy in the King Kamehameha outfit Saturday night? I had to leave early so I didn't see if he was he a paid performer or if he was just struttin' it  Anyone get a picture?

He was thoroughly enjoying his first tiki oasis ever! He is a regular customer at the bookstore I work at, and was strutting it in his own royal style!

Even though I couldn't make it this year, I want to chime in with the mahalos for throwing together such a fantastic event. I love to see my friends happy, and I have LOT of very, very happy friends right now. It has been wonderful being able to live vicariously through everyone's updates & photos here and on Facebook. Thank you for sharing, and thank you Otto, Baby Doe and crew for making it happen!

Such an amazing event! I've been going to TO since the Palm Springs days, and I'm STILL amazed at how big it's grown!! Lots of fun, hanging out with friends that I haven't had a chance to hang out with in years!
I've had a lot of people asking me about records. When The Hula Girls finished our set on the main stage, I guess we were tricky to find. If you want to purchase a record or CD or a hand screened poster, you can get 'em here:

Thanks again to Otto for having us, we'd love to do it again next year!
Can't wait for more pictures.... A lot of it is pretty foggy for me...

Tony, I was one of the crowd that took you up on your offer of the leftover wedding food that you wheeled out into the vending area. I thanked you, but did not realize it was YOUR wedding! Congrats!!!

Thanks to everyone for making the Oasis once again the high point of my year! This event was my 40th birthday party, & I couldn't have spent it with a better group of people!
Also, big thanks to this year's jacket folk:

I had to leave early on Sunday, so apologies to those who were going to sign then. I was tickled to see so many folks from last year, as well as new arrivals that were (for the most part) happy, respectful of the TIKI, and genuinely enjoying themselves. As always, Otto & Baby Doe, the Oasis has made my year liveable until the next one!
MAHALOS, ALL!

I really hope to finally attend a Tiki Oasis next year. This year was just not affordable to me. Glad to see everyone had a blast! See you all next year!

I think I'm still recovering from Tiki Oasis. I wanted to say thank you to everyone for making my first Tiki Oasis experience a blast! I had a lot of fun with with good friends and new friends. It was great to finally meet some Northern California people and other people from TC. I'd like to say Mahalo to Otto, Baby Doe, and the Volunteer crew for making it possible for me to attend! I can't wait for next year!

What an incredible weekend for me & the Mrs. This being our first Oasis we didn't know what to expect, yet every moment was a memorable one filled with fun, great people & outta this world entertainment. We had such a great time it's taken 'til now to finally come back down to reality (now that I think about it, that could've been because of all the rum we consumed).
There are so many people to thank so I'll just give out the biggest heart-felt "Thank You!" to everyone who was there, from fellow attendees to the performers to the vendors to everyone who made things possible. And of course, a very special thank you Otto & Babydoe for making Oasis what it is today: THEE tiki event of the year. We're already making plans for '11!
And speaking of next year, since the 2011 Oasis will have a "south of the boarder" flavor, why not have Marty Lush & His Latin Livers on that main stage? That would be muy bueno!

YES, I AGREE!
I think most of those Latin Livers live in San Diego even.

Marty Lush and his Latin Livers would be the best choice to headline!
