May Birthdays 
The time is drawing near.. the ships are setting sail, and the wahines wave goodbye as we all make the journey back to the Island of the Car Gods
The low rumble of the volcano is replaced by the growl of ancient engines.. it can only mean one thing!
It is time for Hot Rod Hula Hop 4!
The one, the only, and the original.. midwest mash up of tiki bars and hot rod cars!
The infamous greaser's luau returns for its fourth year, and you do not want to miss it!
The Fraternal Order of Moai and the Headhunters cc have skirted the unexplored corners of the globe in search of the savage.. the unusual.. the tropical tiki sights and sounds your mainland soul has been calling out for..
..and now it will be unleashed!

Friday Night
"The Feast of the Tiki Gods"
Live performances by:
The winners of the Hawaiian Music Awards Exotica category.. Masters of the birdcall and Princes of Okonkuluku the fabulous Waitiki!
playing all of your classic favorites like no one else can.. direct from Hawaii, the voice of the islands... the great Francis Llacuna!
flying in on his Witco jet, the poet laureate of Polypop.. the alii of all that is aloha.. the voice that makes the wahines swoon and the fellas take up the ukulele.. the incomparable Pablus!
her hips and hands are insured for well over a million dollars, but her moves are beyond priceless.. her Hawaiian ancestry shows as she dances the same traditional hulas as her grandmother did before her.. the spell binding Leilani!
Plus.. a kalua pig roast, full Polynesian buffet dinner, and all the classic mai tais you could wish for... with fresh mint of course! And this year we are proud to have on hand for sale Trader Vics own mai tai glasses to serve his famous cocktail in. Be sure to pick one up as a souvenir, and refill it all weekend long! At a mere $5 a mai tai, how can you say no?
Saturday Night
"The Octane Ritual"
Our reputation for putting on what is simply the weirdest and best show of the summer has been steadily growing by word of mouth. From the soulful sounds of tradewind breezes, to crashing waves of melodic surf, to the raucous rhythms of pure adrenaline, we always seek out the best of both tiki and kustom culture just for you. Explore the boundaries of your musical tastes as we take you on a wild ride like a trip from the sunny beach back to a beer soaked punk after party. Dont be surprised if you find yourself with a Blue Hawaiian in one hand, and a raised can of American beer in the other!
Live on stage that night:
The Koffin Kats
The Cocktail Preachers
Waitiki
Go! Tsunami
The Heptanes
And of course.. this show would simply not be the same without the amazing performances by the talented ladies of Barnyard Burlesque!
And returning champions of the turntable.. the Fabulous Freaks from The Surfabilly Freakout and Java from the Bachelor Pad radio show!
And of course we'll have a lot full of the hottest hot rods and customs!
Not to mention... Tiki gods, tropical drinks, food by the FOM chef (featuring menu items from Trader Vics and the Kahiki!), vintage and tiki vendors, artists, and all the PBR and heat you can stand!
