The Tacoma cabal found itself at the official grand opening of Tacoma Cabana, a tiki lounge and restaurant of all things rum and pineapple brought to the 253 by Robyn Murphy and Jason Alexander. The Cabana, at 728 Pacific Ave., makes some mean rum drinks and crafted eats, particularly the uber yummy bacon and pineapple skewers with tacky decor straight from the South Pacific that is the "way of the Tiki." But yet, not a single ukulele, barstards... Oh look, more bacon, never mind.
A Wednesday night is not the idea rock night, but there I was, snapping pics at Jazzbones that staged Cottonwood Cutups and the Voodoo Organist. So it is not like I couldn't go. Those Cottonwood boys deliver the goods every freaking time, no matter the venue or the crowd. And of course, who could resist songs about Satan on an electric organ by the Voodoo organist himself.
Toss in a game of what crap does Dawn carry in her purse, and the night was well worth the effort of going out on a worknight.
