Pretty nervous about going tonight. Never been to a surf show/event, don't know anyone from the forums, going by myself, I'm driving down from L.A. to San Diego for the first time, and I haven't been to a show since 2007. PM me if you'd like, I'd be down to meet some of you from the forum. Hell I'll buy you a drink. |

tiki oasis kicked my ass this year, I didn't even do any room parties or symposiums. Jeff(bigtikidude) |

DEFINITELY! The bands at the room parties were great too (of course, if I'd have had the early-morning DJ responsibilities that you had...I probably would have missed them too). Got to thank the fellas from Thee Swank Bastards for hosting two great nights. It was great to see The Love Me Nots and The Creepy Creeps play live in a hotel suite! Great to see you again BTD! —Jet Sterling, Cosmic Spy |

I had the time of my life @ Tiki Oasis,and I couldn't have picked a better year to go.The Exotic& Espionage theme was perfect,and I simply don't know how it could possibly be topped.Next years theme "Hulabilly" should be interesting,but I doubt it will be nearly as cool.I'll be back nonetheless.The biggest surprise was how amazing Los Venturas were @ the car show Saturday afternoon. I hung out with their drummer Pieter during Thee Swank Bastards,and the Exotics sets and I must say that cat was the coolest,and super friendly.Between the music,art,cool people,costumes,and the over all cool atmosphere.Tiki Oasis was well worth the money spent making my trek to San Diego.It was really nice to see my fellow Midwesterner Jet at this event as well,he made me feel a little more at home.It was also nice to finally meet Bigtikidude and Tiki Tena too. —Reverb, It's A Way Of Life! |

I don't usually like to post bad reviews, But their performance at Tiki Oasis left me and some others a bit disappointed. I don't know if it was because of the setting, or them playing along with the tape of backing tracks, or the sound man not getting the sound just right. Or playing on borrowed equipment. I think trying to do something as ambitious as what they were trying to do at this show, shoved in the middle of crazy tiki oasis stage schedule was a bit hopeful it would go off well. That is why Tikiyaki Orchestra has asked to play on thurs. nite. I really like the Barbwires a lot, and am not happy to post negative reviews. I hope it doesn't come off as I am trying to slag them.

My second Tiki Oasis, really a fun time. Not sure how to describe, seems to be one of those events that becomes what you make it. Something for almost everyone. The spy theme seemed perfect, almost something they should do every time. I tried to attend some room parties, only caught the end of the Creepy-Creeps and paid a quick visit to John-O at the end of his party. San Diego was hotter than usual and I was sweating up a storm during the Creepy-Creeps plus it was so crowded in the room I could barely see them. I would like to catch a show by them in a club. The Exotics were awesome, I missed the room party but caught their main set. Wish they were out here in California so I could see them more often, but at least saw them three times in the last two weeks. Los Venturas were great with two sets for the car show. I've never seen the Barbwires before, I really loved their set, lots of energy and the crowd was into it. Great guitar playing too. |
