The Pineappleman’s 8th Tiki Oasis Adventure Part 1 Rum Tasting (What the Real Darb did)


The Pineappleman here....Beaming down to Tiki Oasis 2015


I’ve already posted about my Clone Darb’s journey at Tiki Oasis.  He had quite an Adventure  getting his photo with Tiki Legends  like Big Toe and Tiki Diablo.  Taking pictures with the Penguin and Tiki Head guy.



He got to hang out with a great group of people at the room crawls and the car show.   All of his additional photos can be found on my Pineappleman facebook page below.
The reason I created Darb was to experience more of Tiki Oasis then ever…..I would say mission accomplished.  Here are some of my pictures  -which I’ll break up over a couple of blogs.
This batch is all from my cracked I-phone so the quality isn't the best on some pictures.  (I’ll get to the camera pictures after I can get them downloaded onto the computer.)



Our traditional Friday arrival always kicks off with the Sip and Shop Rum Tastings.



Shopping and Drinking 



"Just like in the Magazine"  Navin R. Johnson


 Lethal they don't call it Deadhead for no reason.




Painkiller indeed


Don't forget to tip the Bartenders  --The Rum  is Free.
Here is Grey Ghost Rum.


          Rum Tasting and Shopping are a dangerous combo


Up next Part 2 ... Shopping,  Bands, Room Crawls and more fun

Tiki Oasis 2014 - Episode 3: Revenge of the Rum


Rum, Rum, Rum

Nothing starts off a great Tiki Oasis like a little Sip and Stroll right after you check into your room.  It was big hit last year and even more free rum was ready for tasting this year.  With Rum  from Appleton Estate, Mount Gay, Deadhead,  Tiki Club Liquors, Angostura Rum and Bitters and Papa's Pillars the people were lining up.





Of course free Rum can lead to Shopping



Too much free Rum and you can start seeing strange things.
All of a sudden people turn into Tikis





Giant Tikis come to life and start playing bongos...
The only cure for this hallucination is of course to drown it with more rum.

Pineapples try to shake your hand



You see things like Shrunken Heads


Or Dogs wearing Sunglasses


You stumble up to your friends room to catch some bands and a few Mai Tai punches and by the time you are ready to room crawl


 Things really get  CRAZY

Next thing you know you are surrounded by Bastards playing guitars in a dimly lit room with half naked women


The Rum is truly taking its Revenge on you at this point as glowing color orbs begin to float before your eyes.


I've  even heard stories about a room where the bartenders were monkeys....but that can't be...I'm afraid we have been submerged in rum for too long.....Better head back to shore for Saturday's fun
