San Diego has held their crawl, and is about to split it into a north crawl and a south crawl. I did a search and saw that the last OC crawl was sometime between 2002-2005. You guys should have one. And soon! I know that we would definitely be up there for it, if you did. And if we lived closer, we'd even plan it out. But...we aren't. So, instead we can only enjoy it from afar. Please someone plan/host an OC crawl, so we have a reason to head up your direction and enjoy seeing all of your beautiful tiki rooms/bars/yards/etc.

Yeah, there is always Don's, but I mean an actual crawl. At people's homes.

Everybody I know is getting out of tiki.
All the cool kids are over it, and selling all their tiki decor.

I know of some great Tiki Shacks and Tiki Rooms in Orange County and had the pleasure of hanging out at some on Visits. But these people may not want there homes opened to the general public.
Some times a crawl takes on a negative feel when it's not just collectors and fan's. There is that % of Crawlers that I wouldn't want in my home.
So we may not want to offer up some one else's home for the crawl.

When should we have "Bong's Tiki Gagrage Crawl"?

I was just wearing my Chongolio-designed "OC Tiki Crawl III, March 29, 2003" shirt the other day, and of the 4 locations we went to, 2 are gone (Royal Hawaiian, Bamboo Ben's) and 1 we got unceremoniously kicked out of and certainly wouldn't want us back (Billy's at the Beach). That leaves Sam's Seafood (now Don's) as the sole survivor. Turc's is a fun place, but can hardly accommodate a crawl-sized group. There's the Puka Bar in LB, but that's a hike from the OC, so without making it a huge driving excursion (or making a home-bar crawl), I don't know what else there is in OC! Other than Bong's garage, that is...

Don't laugh - I actually know a few 'Old Skool TC-er's' that are doing that very thing. Sad, but true.
(However, I am hoping to benefit as they start to unload their decor!)
