Tongo Hiti and Dames Aflame @ Trader Vics
Everybody loves a tiki party, especially one held in posh digs where
butt-kickin' drinks are served among scantily-dressed dancers and
misbehavin' monkeygirls with Hawaiian-style music played all night
long!
That's exactly the kinda party Tiki Kiliki is hosting at tomorrow
night's Tiki Torch Night at Trader Vic's in the Hilton Downtown.
Tongo Hiti will perform with Dames Aflame Burlesque. Author James
Teitelbaum will be there
selling/signing copies of his book "Tiki Road Trip". DJ
Swanky of Swankpad.com broadcast will be spinning your favorite
scratchy records. And at midnight, a lucky raffle winner will be
personally presented with the
Flaming Temptation Potion by an exotically clad Dames Aflame dancer.
Monkey Zuma will come bearing gifts and champagne and poi (and she
promises not to throw anything cuz they have really nice carpet
there at Trader Vic's and it would be really hard to get out bloodstains
or mashed-in poi and she doesn't wanna get TikiKiliki in anymore
trouble than she's already gonna be in 'cuz of all the mai tai's
she'll inevitably be drinkin'). Come gussied-up in yer tiki finery
'cuz a filmmaker will be shooting some footage of the shindig as
a prelude to The Huiki Lau documentary that he's shooting down in
Ft. Lauderdale in September.

2004 Coca-Cola Summer Film Festival. The time-honored tradition

this is truly the best way to see the Fox as seen by those who came
on opening day in 1929. While the orchestra and dancers are long
gone, audiences can still experience the magic of the Fox's "Mighty
Mo" organ and the tradition of the sing-a-long that takes place
before each film. Each Film Festival features a combination of current
and classic films, truly something for every movie-goer. ORGAN MUSIC/RADIO
PERSONALITIES/SING-A-LONG begin about 40 minutes prior to film's
scheduled start time.
BOX OFFICE AND THEATRE DOORS for the COCA-COLA FILM FESTIVAL open
1 hour and 15 minutes prior to the film's scheduled start time.
Individual tickets are available for purchase at that time FOR CASH
ONLY. If you want to order a series book of tickets or reserved
seating for Gone With The Wind please contact Tickemaster. Series
booklets are available for $60.00 and include 12 movie tickets that
can be used for any of the film's except those with reserved seating.
