Aloha?
It's good to be back on the FL. Seems my bar stool got cold.
So, recently...as in since a little over a year ago I left the proper, jazz filled Fedora Lounge for the relaxed, exotica sounds of Tiki Central. Trading in a martini for a mai-tai, shirt and tie for an aloha shirt, sitting and contemplating for standing and carving. A fur felt fedora for a panama hat.
And it's in returning that I realize, it's an interesting two or three worlds I exist between. The formality of the 30's and 40's as well as the pacific culture, which I am a part of, as well as the popularity of it in the relaxed 50's, and of course the 90's and...aughts?. What do you even refer to 2000, 01,02 etc... as?
Anyway, it's an interesting fusion that makes an interesting style of my own.
Anyone else have that going on?
